Last night had to do a pit stop at Wal-Mart to get nappies (diapers) and as always I was driven by an invisible force to the make up aisle and though I was searching for those pesky Sally Hansen sheer tints that seem to be nowhere to be found, I ended up picking up 4 polishes from assorted brands and they were dirt cheap. So cheap there was no eyebrow raise gesture from the husband, so all is good!
I need a pat in the back because really I had 8 cheapies plus 2 BOGOF that were a bit more pricier but then I really practiced some self restrain and narrowed it down to these 4 shades that I'm totally sure I don't have. Yeah.
First we have Premium's blue glitter bomb these brand doesn't name his shades. I have a mani in mind that needs this shade/finish so it was a must. This was the "expensive one" of the lot at $2.00 aprox. In pesos was $29.00.
Then are these 2 from a never seen before brand, at least in polish because Equate is Wal-Mart's own brand. The names are straight forward as they come: Orange and Blue. There you have it.
And finally is Premium again, with a shade that I will call Bayleaf. This one is a very light grey with a tint of green sort of greey?? Ideal for base color.
And I just shed a few dineros to get some born pretty stamping plates. I haven't received the last purchase from winstonia but I'm already itching to get this batch.
The first swatch is the Blue shade from Equate, formula runs smooth and the brush is a very good sized so if you have wide nailbeds this will cover it in 2 stokes. As for coverage, it goes opaque in 2 coats with a nice creme finish and dries in about 2-3 minutes. This is a fine good purchase and I liked the shade of blue a lot and even when I own quite a few blues this one in partcicular I don't have. Weeheee!!!
So far so good, if you happen to spot any of these at Wal-Mart, don't be a snob and grab some. Premium has a lot of glitter and jelly shades so they are a damn god bargain if you want to try and end up not being used that much or if you don't like them at least they will not hurt your pockets.
