I'm up to my ears in studying, but there is always some time for a little nail polish! Essie Poor Lil Rich Girl is an amazing, amazing cranberry red jelly. It is also the kind of jelly I like, the kind you can build up. Here I'm wearing three coats, and the colour is deep and dark and close to the bottle shade. You can probably get away with two coats, but the colour will be really different, vibrant red. After coming across a couple of amazing Essie polishes, like this one and Bobbing For Baubles, I really want to get them for my own stash (they belong to my friend). They are that amazing!

Why wear one shade when you can wear them all?
With a new season comes new nail colors and ELLE editors are officially in fall mode.
It's been a busy summer, but I won't bore you with excuses about where I've been. I bought two new nail polishes this weekend, which is pretty significant considering my last nail polish purchase was in early March (O_O)! I was in the city for some wedding dress appointments, and decided to check out a beauty supply shop that sold Essie and OPI. Essies were $5.99 and OPI were $6.99. Not great deals, but any discount is a good discount! Here's the store I went to, in case you are in NYC: Nicka K. I picked up two green-grey shades, as apparently they are my weakness. I went with Vested Interest and Cashmere Bathrobe from the Fall 2013 collection. My line-up of Essies in this colour family: Essie Vested Interest (2 coats) - Very nice formula. Comparison: Essie Vested Interest and Misa Dirty Sexy Money (2 coats each) - I could have sworn I had a shade similar to Vested Interest, but the closest thing I could find was this Misa. Obviously not dupes :p Edit: someone reminded me about Essie School of Hard Rocks, which I had at some point but looks like I purged already. Here's my post with that swatched from a couple years ago: Essie School of Hard Rocks Essie Cashmere Bathrobe (2 coats) - Also a fantastic formula. The flash makes the shimmer stand-out, but in normal indoor lighting, it is not really apparent. Still, I like it. Comparison: Essie Armed & Ready, Cashmere Bathrobe, Power Clutch (2 coats each) - Again, the flash shows shimmer much better, but in normal lighting, all three of these look very similar on the nail. Power Clutch and Armed & Ready are more similar to each other, in terms of base colour, though. Cashmere Bathrobe is decidedly cool-toned on me. I'm glad I picked these up! I hope you are all having a great summer so far! Until next time :)

The keys to a more youthful look
Rosey Pink, slightly sheer Award Winning Gel Polish! This incredible 100% pure colored gel is created by Akzentz amazing team of chemists to be completely solvent free, long lasting and easily applied! This unique formula provides numerous benefits: Easy Application - The product is not runny so it stays where you apply it. Odor Free - Absolutely NO smell. Does not smell like nail polish, since it is polish free. Flexibility and Strength - Typical gel polish made with polish in it will chip the longer the customer wears the product as it ages and the product gets harder. Luxio does not age, allowing the customer weeks after weeks after weeks of flawless wear! Applies beautifully in 1-2 coats - Some colors have such perfect high quality pigment, it can be applied perfectly and opaque with 1 coat. The coverage is fantastic. Does Not Wrinkle - Gel polish that is made with part polish must Dry AND Cure at the exact rate it is designed for. If it does one faster than the other, you get wrinkling. Luxio is 100% gel and will not dry, so it can be applied slightly thicker than most gel polishes allowing freedom for nail art and french with one coat of white. Does not get thick - Solvents dissipating out of the bottle of typical polish causes it to thicken over time. With Luxio being solvent free, that will never happen! You can use every drop of your Luxio. Cures 30 seconds in LED lamps, 2 minutes in UV lamps. Easy Soak off, 5 min per layer.
Ok, so some of us put off painting our nails because it takes so long for them to dry. Really, who has time to sit around and wait for nail polish to finish drying? If
