Polished Up: Ulta's Fuchsiamania

Today's review is on Ulta's polish in Fuchsiamania. This is a beautiful, bright polish that is great for a day on the beach or a night out. It applies very sheer on the first coat, but the color is opaque on the second. It took two coats to achieve the look above. My only issue with this polish is that it didn't last long. After two days of wear I began to see chipping. I love the color, but this polish is better suited for a special occasion and not days of wear.

Polished Up: Wet n Wild's Sugar Coat


Today's polish review is for Wet n Wild's Megalast polish in Sugar Coat. This is a creamy, light pink shade that applies sheer. If you want a slight wash of color, one coat would be enough with this polish. However, an opaque look will take several coats. It took three coats to achieve the look above (my nails still show through a bit).
I love the color of this polish; great for spring. It lasted four days before I began to see any chipping.

Spring essentials

Who else is ready for spring? Now that it's March, I'm even more anxious for warmer weather. I'm excited to bring out some of my staple pieces that I go to the most when the weather is just starting to warm up. Pieces like chambray tops are great when it's not quite warm enough to wear summer dresses on their own, and I love graphic tees to pair with a blazer or boyfriend jeans. What are your spring essentials? Leave me a comment and let me know.

Polished Up: Sally Hansen's Gunmetal

Today's polish is another from one of my favorite lines. Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear polish in Gunmetal is a striking metallic grey with a hint of blue. Like with most polishes from this line, I saw almost a week of wear before any chips started to appear. The application is smooth and it took two coats to achieve the look above.
This is a great shade to match any winter wardrobe.
