Oh, REVLON......YOU DISAPPOINT ME!!

    So I was waiting at london drugs for my dear mother to finish shopping, when I came across this super cute nail color from Revlon! I know this color is a season back or so...first launched by YSL.....but I have been looking for a grey nail polish that isn't gonna cost me $30......and well ladies, this nail polish was on sale for $2.99!!!!! K, enough said...SO I got home and I tried it...I was SUPER amazed at how nicely it went on...bold color, dried quick (as the label said)

    and I was super satisfied...until 2 days later.....IT started CHIPPING! IT CHIPS LIKE MAD!! I practically hafta re-apply a coat everynight! that's pretty ridiculous ya?
    WELL LESSON LEARNED....dun be suckered into cheap pretty things......
    QUALITY OVER QUANTITY!
    but on a happier note, in the midst of the "FINALS" blues from school, I was able to use MY STUDENT DISCOUNT at CLUB MONACO today!!! boo on the nails but yay on the shirt!







    don't you just LOVE the shoulder on this white shirt?? such a great buy! original price was $69, went down to $29 and with my student discount, it came up to be $23.20

    top: Club Monaco / vest: Japan / jeggings: H&M / sunnies: F21 / necklace: tiffany key / purse: Louis Vuitton / Shoes: Christian Louboutin / bracelets: holt renfrew and Links of London 


    what nail color should I buy next? mint green, neon yellow or nude??

Make me SHINE baby, BUT FAST!

    I think nails says more about a person then we think! SERIOUSLY! I mean, if you are deficient in Calcium, it shows on your nails. If you smoke, then your nails go yellow. If you are an auto mechanic, you get grime under your nails. List keeps on going! You can really tell someone's hygiene from how they take care of their nails! I one time read on a magazine, I think it was cosmo.....a guy was being interviewed and said, "I can tell a girl's hygiene by looking at how well she takes care of her nails" I mean it does some what makes sense, because painting nails and grooming them, takes time and money!!

    SO how can you keep'em nails SHINE?
    for years I didn't believe in a top coat! I know! I can't believe it myself!!
    I first discovered the greatness of a TOPCOAT at Holts, I just tried it on one finger, I think it was the NARS one, just cause it was there and I was bored. BOY was I amazed! It made it SHINE like crazy! I was SOLD, and after that was compliment after compliment! Here I learned the importance of a TOPCOAT!
    BUT when I took it home, it took forever to dry. SO I looked into the FAST drying ones, but was very hesitant to buy any..... I don't know why I`m so skeptical  toward these things, but I also couldn't believe it would be any better than the NARS one. then I tried BUTTER LONDON, and I was a believer!

    so here are a few that I own:
      My Reviews!
    1. MY FAV ESSIE! it isn't goopy like the others, perfect consistency and it makes your nails DAZZLE 
    2. THE WORST, O.P.I by Sephora! it is so runny!!! when you applicate it, it actually settles in your cuticles
    3. NOT WORTH IT, NARS! my biggest impression for this product is IT NEVER DRIES, like you leave it for 10 hrs and it still seems to get dents!
    4. THE BEST OF THE BEST, BUTTER LONDON HARDWEAR!!! this one over time, the consistency gets pretty thick, but that actually acts as a benefit because it almost feels like you are putting on a gel coat! so it gives you a illusion of that gel coat thickness AND hardness! most of all it lasts FOREVER!!
    I know there are SO MANY topcoats out there, any other ones you guys used that were amazing???
    LET ME KNOW <3
