♥ Jordana Boy~Oh~Boy Nail Polish Review ♥

This is one of the polishes i picked last yr while i was at Lagos, W. Africa. I have already done an exclusive post on Swatches of this polish here.

Today am doing a brief review of same ~

What I ♥ ~

• This is a pretty Teal color with undertones of blue, unfortunately this doesn't show in pics. Instead it shows as lovely blue color.
• Its a creme sheen formula.
• Its super glossy and shiny.
• Single coat is enough to give a good opaque finish.
• Brush is average like any other brand, needs 2-3 coats to cover the nail (for me atleast).
• Needs no top coat (though as a ritual i do use topcoat for every polish i use ^.^)

What I don't ♥ ~

• Nothing about polish but we hardly get the good colors in India, rest Jordana Polishes are very good and is one of my fav brands now.

And like always i need some glitter, here's the mani with glitter ~

Products Used ~

Base Coat ~ Konad Base Coat

Primary color ~ Jordana Boy-Oh-Boy

Glitter ~ Revlon Slipper

Top Coat ~ ColorBar

So whats your fav polish from Jordana??

♥ Jordana Nail Polish ♥ Boy ~ Oh ~ Boy ♥ Swatches ♥

This is a pretty Tealish Blue Nail Color that i picked at Lagos, W. Africa last year. Luckily then i found a small local beauty shop run by a Nigerian who stocked some lovely Polishes. Though few shades, i made a point always i stock every color she had!! Out of them, this is one of the beautiful colors i had picked and everyone liked it rather too much. I remember how i wore this polish for the first time when i went to a local beach there!! It looked so perfect for a beach party we had ^.^

Thinking of those days, i badly miss beaches and even that small beauty shop.... *sigh*

Anyways here's the swatches ~

Though i must say, this one is rather naughty.... this color isn't that blue instead its more Tealish. But how many ever pics i took it just came out as blue..... *sigh*

This color isn't available online on any Indian site.... weird!!

Do you own any different color from Jordana? I have been lusting after those gorgeous glitters Jordana has come up with recently. Do you own any glitters from Jordana ??

Day 2 ~ Love Cats!!

Today's theme is Animals and all day while i was neck deep lost in work, my mind was continuously thinking of what should be my mani today. Am so tired right now i can hardly type anything, so for now i will let my pics do the talking and i will come back tomorrow with more of gossip and stuff on what i have been busy about....

Here's my mani for today ~ Love Cats

Nail Design ~ Jordana Pop Art Nail Design Precision Brush in Black and CQ Scherer French White

I wish i had chance of taking pics in natural light, this artificial light isn't doing the justice to the gorgeous coralness of the ColoBar Nail color and to the lovely multi color glitter. Well for now i wanted to finish my challenge and post pics, i promise - first thing in morning is to take pics and update this post. For then just manage with this one *.*

Am off to bed, can't stop yawning anymore........ goodnight sweeties!!!

~ Dots and Hearts ~

You know me, sometimes plain nails just bore me after few hrs and i need to do something about it. Though i mostly glitter-fy my nails, these days i have been reaching to nail art. Though i love stamping am still pretty bad at it and that still doesn't bother me to try it often *.*

Also doing free-hand is not only fun but also improves the precision. Though at times it doesn't give a neat look it still has its own charm....

So i opted for my Jordana Pop Art Nail Design Precision Brush in Black to make some dots and hearts. Here's pics ~

Products Used ~

Base coat ~ L.A.Colors

Base Color ~ Color Essence Teen Vogue

Nail Design ~ Jordana Pop Art Nail Design Precision Brush

Top coat ~ Konad and Avon Nail Experts UV Gloss Guard

Thanks for watching, till next time........

My April Faves..

With April over, i have this huge list to share with you. My April Faves ...

I know am late for this post but i wanted to share anyways *.*

Being in Lagos i had a great access to L.A.Colors and L'Oreal Nail colors which i hardly see here. Nevertheless i have been crazy shopping alot lately. Mostly for my Nail Polish stash and some couple of makeup items. Out of them i have been in love with some alot than i can say in words.

These are my faves for April 2012 ~

Jordana Brow Powder Duo in Black - Very compact and handy, its my first brow powder kit and i must say i am in love. No more pencils and smudging which often take sometimes mins, this kit is super handy and all i need is secs to finish setting my brows.

Jordana Lipstick in Toastie Taupe 172 - Inexpensive,nice color and a good add on to lipsticks and colors if you are into having more options. Its not exactly Taupe but more of brown and coral mix.

Lakme Lipstick in Aphrodite Blush * - Its the first lipstick in my stash with undertone of Coral. And am seriously loving it. Its very much in color of a natural blush but on my lips shows quite a bit of coralness

See both look alike mostly except the toastie taupe is sheer and less cream than Aphrodite Blush..

Lakme Absolute White Intense Concealer Stick SPF 20 * - Again its a first concealer stick i own, i never needed one before, but now with couple of acne spots showing this came very handy. More a matty, it rather covers the light spots i have very well

Revlon Nail Enamel in Ooh La La Lilac 324 - A gorgeous nail color from Revlon, its looks pretty white with undertones of Lilac. When swatched it shows its true color and the lilac beauty surfaces.

Maybelline NY Clearglow Bright Benefit Cream - Perfect for my daily wear, its covers the uneven skin tone quite well and give a natural glow finish. One can hardly make out i used BB cream.

NYX Girls Gloss in 03 Pink - Pretty Barbie Pink, the gloss stays quite longer and doesnt bleed. By the looks of it, it seems its a bright neon pink, while the swatches reveal its pale pink beauty.

Avon Glimmersticks Eye Liners in Emerald Glow, Smokey Diamond, Black Ice, Twilight Sparkle - These glimmersticks are so good to add that touch of subtle sexiness to eyes. I cant get enough of these, Black Ice is in my daily wear stash *.*

Avon Ultra Moisture Rich Rose Lipstick in Amelia Rose - A girly pink, its leaves the lips soft and stays on quite well. Need re-application if want all day long. Definitely not glossy, its perfect for daily wear or say even office wear.

Avon Extra Lasting Kajal * - Its a lovely kajal that takes minnimum effort and shows good results.  Staying power is quite good which am impressed with it alot, it hardly smudges or transfers.

What are your April Favs??

Till next time.....
