Sula Ruby - more testing!

This is Ruby by Sula, it is another Paint & Peel Polish

I love this color!!! This was like a true red that got a dash of pink mixed in.

These pictures look a tad too red, this is 2 coats of polish with no top coat. 

These are with top coat, and are more true to the real color. 

I wore these for a day and a half, approx from when I woke up to noon the next day. I started absentmindedly peeling them off so I did not get a picture of their wear. It really was fine, just minor tip wear. Something I needed to understand was the dry time was slower than my usual seche vite. I should have waited about 10 minutes to do something rather than 10 seconds. haha. 

Here is the problem though, I finally understood why people were upset with this polish originally. When I did peel it off, it took the top most layer of my nail with it. I dont know if this is due to the top coat or wearing it for more than one day, but I will be doing more testing for you guys so expect my testing to continue!! haha :)

As a side note, I couldn't stop staring at my nails when I had these on.... I just LOVED the color. It was oddly so boring but wonderfully unique at the same time! I will be wearing this a lot in the future!

Testing Paint & Peel!

Today I tested Moss. It is another polish by Sula's Paint & Peel Polish. 

It actually changed colors as it dried haha 

Left two are wet and right two are dry

No idea if it is supposed to do that or if it is just the way the color acts, it didn't really bother me though.

Here it is without top coat again, three coats. 

They couldnt have picked a better name for this polish. It is a true forest green that randomly has some brown tones to it. I really love it and I have nothing like this color in my collection. I think Sula should offer their colors in regular polish as well because I would buy the normal version of this in a heartbeat!

I love how shiny they are!! They feel kinda like plastic-y to the touch though.

Nails to other people 

After a day of wear here is my right hand... 

You couldnt tell there was any tip wear though 

My other hand, however, got into a fight with some plastic lol. Apparently this polish sticks to any kind of plastic and refuses to stay on your nail haha. It really isn't a problem, I was just trying to open something I should have used scissors on ;) I feel like top coat would fix this issue though.

And after one day they still peeled wonderfully! all off in one solid strip :)

I still have more tests!!! Come back tomorrow for more Peeling awesomeness!

Sula Paint & Peel Products!

I was lucky to be able to review 6 polishes from Sula's Paint & Peel polish line. 

I really love the idea of this polish, I LOVE PEELING THINGS, like stickers or anything really!

I explain these to people like they are make up. You put them on in the morning and remove (peel) them before going to bed so you can start all over and match your clothes perfectly!! They, like make up, are not meant to be worn for days on end. Really, these should be applied daily. 

Did I mention they were Big 3 free AND water based?? Plus, because they require no remover, no harmful acetone. They really are the definition of healthy beauty. They also carry fragrance and other make up!

Here are the products I received.

Top to bottom:  Vermilion, Ruby, Tango Duos

These come with their top coat, lasting love, to add some wear time to the polish.

L-R: Moss, Blush, Royal

I love the caps! 

And the adorable dandelions thingys?? lol 

The first one I chose to review was Vermillion. Here are the directions on the box...

Here is three coats of Vermilion, no top coat

I feel like this is the perfect orangey orange. Like true crayon orange haha. 

Also, Something that I will be doing is showing you something I think is important... how OTHER people see your nails. So here are my nails from a short distance in general lighting...

And how much do you love my phone case!!! I love alice in wonderland :D

I really noticed little difference in application than non-water based polishes. I was super excited for that! I was most worried about unevenness, but it really was minimal. The application was outstanding considering the fact it is water based.

I knew I wanted to try peeling these off right away so I did not add the top coat. I waited about 15 minutes and it peeled off perfectly!!! All one sheet, it was so fun! Then I decided to wait another hour, and I peeled off the rest. There was no difference in peeling ability (haha) it went perfectly. 

Check in tomorrow where I put this polish to the test even more!!!

You can purchase these products and more at Sula's website here.

Day 21- Inspired by a Color

Today I chose to be inspired by the Color Blue.

I started by putting two coats of Respect the World (matte) by Nicole by OPI.

Then I added nail art on my thumbs with Curaco by Sephora.

Squirrel!!! 

I left my fingers all matte except for my thumb with I added Seche Vite to. 

Here is my inspiration!!! My Blue Squirrel :D 

Twins!!!

The Polishes I used. L-R: ChG Life Preserver, Black on Black by Sinful Nail colors, White On by Sally Hansen and Curaco by Sephora. 

I Hope you liked it!!! It was a super fun mani to wear :D

Day 18 - Half Moons

I have never actually liked the look of half moon mani's but I actually wore this for about 5 days!!

I started with 2 coats of Pelican Gray by China Glaze, which I thought was a beautiful gray creme. But then I took it in the sun anddd...

Bamn Hidden Shimmer!!!

It is a pretty silver shimmer!

Then I put french tip guides on the bottom of my nails.

Ew ignore the bubbles. Then I added My Kind of Kool-Aid by Cult nails.

This was my best one lol

THEN I got bored. And added spectraflair top coat to make it holographic. Pretty!! wooo holo! 

It was so pretty and I really loved having it on :)

Day 16 - Tribal Print

Disclaimer: I have never done tribal print before and I am not very good at being random lol

I started out with 2 coats of Cult Nails Devious Nature. No idea why I only took one picture of this... Sorry for the crappy quality.

Then I added thick lines of an off white with my striper brush.

And added random dots and stripes with a black striper brush.  

I'm not too good at it... but at least I tried right?!

Day 15 - Delicate Print

Oops my scheduling didn't work.... So prepare yourself for three posts in one day!!

Surprisingly this day has been the hardest for me to come up with....

 I started with two coats of Stiletto by Jessie's Girl. This was another buy influenced by Nouveau Cheap's blog.

It is a 'nude' that has a wonderful silver shimmer! I say 'nude' because my skin is so pale, nudes look like beige/mauve on me. 

Then I added stamp m80 with Sally Hansen's White On. 

 

I love this design and color combo, but I don't know how delicate it is.... but this is what I think of when I think delicate. haha :)

Day 12 - Stripes!

Today is another Nouveau Cheap Inspired purchase... See her post about it here. 

I made sure to stalk the crap out of the 2011 Fashion Week collection because I knew there was two polishes with hidden blue shimmer, but I didn't remember their names. 

Here is one!! Purple Trend by Maybelline.

BAM! It does look very similar to a bruise color, (I thought it was brown at first) but it is deep purple. 

It was super hard to capture the blue shimmer in this one, but it was night time so I couldn't tell you if the sun would have helped.

Even without the shimmer it is a beautiful color.

Here it is under artificial LED light. Super amazing right??

Here is what I came up with for the stripe challenge!! I did a mani before this and found I suck at vertical lines, so i stuck to some other versions. I could totally see myself wearing this instead of stripes that were all the same!

Hope you guys are having a great day!!! See you tomorrow!
