Quo by Orly Mega Plum Nail Polish Swatch

I don’t know which is worse in this alphabet of nail polish challenge, only having one polish starting with a letter when you really don’t like it or having so many that it is hard to choose.  Last week, I pulled out all of my M polishes and sat on the floor with trying to […]

Bio Seaweed Gel Carnival Collection – Tea Cups Nail Polish

Bio Seaweed Gel Carnival Collection Teacups Nail Polish

Have you heard of Bio Seaweed Gel Unity Polishes?  They are not your typical faux gel polishes, these can be cured with a LED or UV lamp but can also cure in direct sunlight for those who want true long-wear without the added cost of a lamp.  Their latest release of summery colours in their […]

China Glaze License & Registration Pls

China Glaze License & Registration Pls Nail Art Blue and Silver Swatch

As I mentioned in my recent swatches of CND Canada’s Flirtation collection, I have been looking for the perfect blue for summer.  I ordered this before receiving Date Night which I prefer to License & Registration Pls for a few reasons, but it is L in Alphabet Nails so here it is.

Zoya Kimber – AlphabetNails

Zoya Kimber Stamped Rica The Golden Egg Polish

Flying through the alphabet of nail polishes, this week is K and I chose Zoya Kimber. Zoya Kimber is probably my favourite pink polish.  It is one of few polishes I have used the whole bottle and purchased a second.  There are several polishes that I have bought a second bottle, but usually because they […]

Quo by Orly Color Amp’d Best Dressed

Quo by Orly Color Ampd Best Dressed Silver Foil Nail Polish Stamped

A good silver polish is hard to find.  So many are glittery and the foil finish ones often show brush strokes.  So Quo by Orly Color Amp’d in Best Dressed was a nice surprise.  It applied like a dream and while almost a one-coater, the second coat deepened the opacity without those terrible brush strokes.  The […]

UNT Ready For Takeoff Peel Off Basecoat

UNT peel off base coat with polish peeled off

I have wanted to try UNT Ready For Takeoff Peelable Basecoat for ages.  Simply Nailogical recommended it as the best peel off basecoat (see her comparison video here) but it is not available in Canada so I held off ordering it while trying various other peel off base coats and glitter bases.  Since my no-buy/low-buy […]
