Cute glue-on nails 🩵🩷

 After getting acrylic nails, my nails were super ugly and damaged. I decided to remove them myself and I ended up with super thin nails, I had to cut them super short and some of my fingers hurt a little so. Lesson learned, I'll have them properly removed next time. 😅

I'm not new to glue-on nails, I used to buy them a lot in the past. I especially loved the ones from Elegant Touch. They have the cutest colors, look pretty natural and the glue has great quality. Not long ago, I saw these nails online and, since they had a good review, I wanted to try them. 

They are from Prichos (which is like a dollar store you can find in most Walmart stores over here) and, even tho they were very cheap, they had like 3 different sets with pretty designs. They were all square shape tho.

I chose this one mainly because of the hearts design. Not saying the plain ones aren't pretty but, the hearts caught my attention. Plus, the colors felt bright and lively.

The kit comes with 24 nails, this gives you the chance to wear them twice if the sizes are right and, some glue. The glue is pretty good for a cheap one. It dries fast and glues the nails strongly without damaging your nails when you remove them. 

They last for about a week, the application is clean and easy and since they aren't very thick, they feel comfortable. 

I have very bad and awkward hand posing but still wanted to show you how the nails looked. They have a very decent lenght that allows you to do things.

I did apply them 10 minutes before my class so I didn't choose the sizes very carefully so, some of the nails ended up being slightly big on my actual nails. Oh well~

I ended up cutting and filing them a little bit. I kinda like them a little bit more this way.

Honestly, I was impressed with the quality of these nails and I kinda want to buy the other designs too have around whenever I want/need them. They are defo worth it, especially because they are very, very affordable.

 

See you nect time~! ♡

Simple Pink Acrylic Nails 💕

Time to show you what's currently on my nails.

I think I've mentioned this before but, it is almost impossible for me to keep my nails long and pretty. They are very weak and break easily. I've tried press on nails before and, even tho I like them, they are not the best option if you want to keep them for over a week.

Last weekend, my sister and I randomly decided to get our nails done. Last time I got acrylic nails was many years ago and my experience with them wasn't exactly the best.

These are the designs we chose. I guess they both reflect our personalities, hehe.

I decided to go for square nails, to me, they are classic and pretty. I think I played it safe tho, choosing my staple pale pink and glitter. There's something about that combo I find clean and cute. It goes well with everything!

Even tho they are slightly longer than I'd usually go for, they feel comfortable and allow me to do things naturally. There is something about long nails that makes you hands look instantly prettier, haha. Plus it's gonna be super convenient to have them looking like this without having to worry about them for a while.

I can see myself becoming addicted to them, you know, I love papmering myself~ ♡

ESSIE Gel Couture | All Dressed Up💅 |

 

Here we have a quick look at what's currently on my nails, it's the ESSIE Gel Couture "All Dressed Up" (1108), which is a creamy dusty rose kind of shade. 

It's described as a "spicy tea rose" color, I don't exactly know what that means but, sounds pretty cute. To me is one of those colors you can't go wrong with. It's pretty, clean and neutral.

You only need to apply two coats to get an even color, plus it has a shiny, gel type finish. 

Essie nail polishes have a great quality in general and last a little longer than other brands I've tried. They are defo worth it.

And well guys, that is that, I'm keeping it super short this time, hehe.

I'll see you next time~! ♡

Currently on my nails~ 💅

Quick nail polish update just because my nails are long and pretty right now and, I recently bought this lovely pink nail polish.

The brand is called MZY &, and it's my first time buying it. They have a big variety of colors and some glitters too.

It's a really pretty bubble gum pink that doesn't need to many coats to get an even color. Durability wise, it's pretty decent. Especially considering it was very affordable. 

Anyway, I'll keep this post super short, just wanted to show you what's currently on my nails. 💅

See you next time~! ♡

Current fav nail polish 💜

 Quick update on what's currently on my nails. This is a really pretty nail polish from Bissú called "Corazón Soñador" (533)

I receive this nails polish as part of my birthday pressies earlier this year. It is a very pretty pastel lilac shade that, to me, looks very 90s! It is fun and bright which makes it perfect for the Spring - Summer season. I'm obsessed.

It is kinda creamy (if that makes any sense) and it dries pretty quickly after applying, something I always appreciate.

Bissú nail polishes are always pretty decent durability wise. Of course, I have to retouch every couple of days (without applying a top coat) but, it's never too bad. 

I've been loving this color so much that, I even applied it on my toe nails, which are usually pink.

Now that I think about it, I've been wearing purple / lilac colors on my nails a lot lately. No matter the season. 

Current Nail Polish~ 💜

Let's talk about what's currently on my nails for a bit cuz, I feel like these nail polish posts are becoming less and less frequent around here. I used to love blogging about my newest additions and stuff but, I just don't buy many anymore cuz, I have a lot!

I don't know if you guys remember the 24 Days of Christmas Pressies post, I showed you 2 new nail polishes I received and well, they are too cute not to show again!

I finally decided to try this one, I already wore the pink one twice but forgot to share around here. Maybe next time! This one is a lilac polish, the brand is called NHC Long Lasting and the color is #178. At first I thought the color would be very similar to the to the Lure Lavender Bloom or Chic Gray by CANMAKE  but this one is slightly darker and with a different finish. It actually dries a lot darker than what you see on the bottle, I still find it really nice and clean looking and it feels like a good transition color to go from Winter to Spring.

The smell is a little strong but it goes away as soon as it dries. Plus, it dries super fast! Thats is something I always appreciate, hehe.

Now, let's take a moment to appreciate how pretty the presentation is. Very simple, yet cute. The golden bow on the top makes it look super girly. It looks nice everywhere and could also make a cute decoration on a vanity.

Durability wise, I'd say it's like a regular nail polish, its lasts for a couple of days if you take care of it but, I don't mind retouching it every now and then.

And, that is that for what's on my nails. Hehe.

See you next time~! ♡

Metallic Champagne

I can't remember the last time I wore a metallic nail polish. I used to like them years ago, when L.A. Colors was my favorite nail polish brand~ It's been a while.

But my mom bought this Cosmetic Lab nail polish called "Champagne Metálico" (Metallic Champagne) and I liked how it looked on her so, I wanted to try it.

I feel like even tho it's a metallic shade, the color is kinda neutral and makes your hands look very clean with a fun twist.

These nail polishes and other products from this brand can be found at Walmart. They have a big variety of colors, they are pigmented and you don't need too many layers to get an even color. 

Durability wise, they last for about a week but they do chip when you do the dishes, lol. I've tried other non-metallic colors from this brand and I feel they last a little longer. It also takes too long to dry because the consistency is thick.

Do you like metallic nail polishes?

A Glimpse of Glamour

 Guess what?! We have another pink nail polish! (I'm sure it's no surprise anymore~ hehe). This time it's the "Glimpse of Glamour" (1106) from ESSIE.

It is a nude, soft pink that makes you nails and hands look very clean and pretty. I feel like you can't go wrong with these type of nude colors.

The durability is just great (without a top coat). Better than ohter nail polishes I've tried, even if I do the dishes! The only down side to this particular one, is that the color is super sheer so, you need to apply many, many coats to get an even color.

I don't usually talk about the presentation when it comes to nail polishes but I think this one is worth mentioning. It looks like a twisted glass bottle but, the brush is also twisted! I found that kinda cool. You know, the little details. Hehe.

This color is perfect when you want to have something cute on your hands without being too flashy. I also like the fact that I don't have to worry about them chipping for a while.

Not Turning Back From Pink Street

 Here comes another pink nail polish, it is the O.P.I "Not Turning Back From Pink Street" Nail Laquer, which is a bright, hot pink shade. 

As the other O.P.I Nail polish I shared before, it dries quickly with a shiny finish. The color is more pigmented tho, you only need 2 coats to get an even color. But, it also starts chipping after doing dishes and stuff (then again, without a top coat).

To me, it feels like a happy color and it's the kind of shade I like to wear on my toes.

Lavender Bloom

Spring is almost here so I thought this nail polish would be perfect! At least the name is... hehe.

Currently on my nails is the LURE Salon Formula Nail Color in "Lavender Bloom" (LNC722G). It is my first time trying products from LURE but I'm familiar with them because my mom has bought and tried their products before.

It is a lilac color described as a metallic polish with a "shiny" finish. You need to apply 2 or 3 coats to get the color you see in the bottle. It doesn't dry super fast but it doesn't take forever either and, it is super long lasting even when I've been washing dishes and stuff.

It kinda reminds me of the CANMAKE Tokyo Colorful Nails "Chic Gray" but in a lighter and sparkly version.

LURE has a large variety of nail polishes so, I defo will try more in the future. 

I Think in Pink

Pink nails are perfect for February because of the whole Valie's Day thing. Well, they are always perfect for me but... you know what I mean. Hehe. And if there is a shade of pink I love is a bubblegum, Barbie pink.

Currently on my nails is the O.P.I "I Think in Pink" Nail Lacquer. It is a beautiful, bright pink with a shiny finish that applies easily and dries quickly. I really appreciate that! 

For this particular color, I had to apply 3 coats to get this color cuz it is a little sheer. Durability wise is good. It lasts for about one week (without a top coat) with some chipping after doing the dishes and stuff but, nothing too bad. 

It's my first time trying O.P.I nails polishes and I honestly think they are pretty good, especially if you are like me, and have no time to do constant touch ups.
