happy july 2017! never thought that i would make it this far. all of the polishes i wore in june, i loved; so here is what i wore in order ... "unicorn" by sinful colors this is an older sinful colors polish that i've had forever. it is found at most drugstores and i highly recommend it. its paler than most yellow polishes and i love that. the formula is not the best, but about average for most yellow polishes. "island coral" sinful colors another from the core line: very readily available. such a great formula and the coral leans pink, which i prefer to orange-y coral shades. i've had this polish for years. dont know why i put it off ... "the i's have it" with "rich girls & po' boys" opi minis "the i's..." comes from the 2016 spring "alice through the looking glass collection." and i picked up "rich girls..." with a holiday 2016 "month of manis" mini set of opi polishes; this included opi's holiday collection & some of their popular 2016 and core line polishes. "rich girls..." is a shade from the 2016 spring/summer new orleans collection. love both these colors. "let's be friends" opi mini this mini hails from the 2016 hello kitty collection for opi. i thought that it had a great formula for a very pale pink. (in the photo it appears much more pale nude). got it in a small set of 5 hello kitty polishes that i found discounted at tj maxx. "flip-flop fantasy" china glaze (original formula) i had no idea that ... back in april when i picked this up ... that this was the original formula of the famous neon shade. the true glow of this shade cannot be captured on film. i had always heard the formula was terrible, but it wasn't that bad, honestly. still wearing this on my toes. "meet me at the rink" color club i think this polish came out in a 2015 collection. i picked this up, recently, at walmart ... amazing: both the polish and the fact that now color club polishes are available at such a big chain. do yourself a favor and snap up this great polish! "celtic sun" china glaze i love this neon in the hot hot weather! layered here over opi's "put a coat on" white base coat. Unlike "flip-flop fantasy" white undies are required. still, so worth it for such an eye popping highlighter yellow. get this at your local sally's beauty supply. "thistle do nicely" china glaze mini really love this neon pink. again, layered over opi's "put a coat on" bc undies may not be required, but it really does make a difference. got this mini in a bin at sally's beauty for $1.99. i indulged in the minis this month a great deal. so excited to find these varieties! great way to try out so many shades. "casual friday" china glaze mini another great mini! this polish i think was released recently ... spring? for some reason this mini was $1.29 instead of.$1.99 at sally's ... this yellow was really surprising: a better formula than a typical yellow creme. "pool party" china glaze this polish appears far more red in this photo than it looks in real life. i liked this color a lot more than i anticipated. the shade lives in this really interesting place between red and hot pink and is also neon. layered over opi's "put a coat on" white base coat to maximize the brightness. "mint" blackheart beauty from hottopic this neon pastel is a favorite of mine from 2016. such an interesting shade and surprisingly flattering. i featured this in my favorites for 2016. almost opaque in one coat, no undies required. "shade of happiness" essence the gel nail polish wish that i would have snapped a pic of this polish in full sunlight. i have wanted this polish for about a year. i finally was able to pick it up in spain over the holidays. compared to all of the neons that ive been wearing, this orange shade looks almost neutral. "in full blue-m" sally hansen complete salon manicure this blue leaning grey creme has a terrific formula. its a great shade to wear anytime of year. opaque in almost one coat, it was a dream to work with. the csm line is supposed to include all steps of the manicure: base, color and top coat. which is why, i suppose, it retails at the higher end of sally hansen's lines: $8-$9. i got this and a couple of others on sale at walgreens for $2/ea. i also use both base and top coats to lessen the chance of chipping. "tilda" zoya
i am finally wearing the grass green pantone color of the year! i dont know why i put it off for so long. the color is very interestingly complimentary on my skin tone and the formula is really great (like most zoyas). very nice way to close out the month. so that was all of the polishes that i wore in june 2017. not one that i did not like! if you would like to know about the polishes that i wore in may or april, please tweet me at @shakespeare_okc. or tell me what polishes were your favorites for june.
