Partial Press Sample
Back in 2012 when I first started blogging, there weren't that many indies, and there really wasn't a thing such a press samples unless you worked with a few of the major brands. We would post our NOTDs (Nails of the Day) and whatever art we did rather than swatches. So I figured I would show you what I've been wearing in between swatch fests and bring back the good ol' NOTD!
A lot of nail blogger actually don't wear nail polish on the reg! I always like to have my nails polished. It seems like when I don't, I have a massive break, which is precisely what happened this time!
First, here is what I wore on vacation. Girly Bits Sequins and Satin Pants. It was the perfect sparkly polish although it hated chlorine so it's good I brought it with me to do touch ups over my 6 day vacation. You can only get this polish if you purchase the Sequins and Satin Pants collection. WORTH IT.

So I took my Girly Bits manicure off when I got back from vacation, and broke my nails putting on pants (my finger slipped out of the belt hold DAMMIT!). So I reached for a neon for my shorties! I love China Glaze Red-y to Rave. It's one of my favorite neons.
China Glaze Red-y to Rave: 3 coats. This is just one of my favorites. Depending on your skin tone, it may lean more red or more orange!

Orly You're Blushing: 2 coats. I ADORE this taupey purple. Believe it or not, my dad got me this polish! I wore this on Father's Day actually. I had planned to do some art over it, but I loved it so much, I left it alone.

There you have it. Here's some NOTDs I wore between swatch sessions! Sometimes, after swatching 10+ polishes, I don't have it in me to do art, so I slap on an old favorite. I love re-using my polishes!

ReplyDeleteThank you! I figured why not sure what I've been wearing?!

ReplyDeleteWhich kbs?
DeleteI love NOTD! It's practically all I do. I've been eyeballing Sequins and Satin Pants. Sooo sparkly!
ReplyDeleteGotta grab that whole collection!
DeleteI need that ORLY.
ReplyDeleteIt's an oldie but I love it!
DeleteLove notds! Gimme more!
ReplyDeleteRight? We get so caught up in Collection swatches, we never post what we actually wear!
DeleteI love (and have) all of those!
ReplyDeleteOf course you do :)
DeleteI love a good NOTD post! I rarely get a chance to wear my own polish anymore. I usually just end up wearing the last thing I swatched.
ReplyDeleteI totally know what you mean. Instead of that, I'll pull out something old or one I swatched and didn't get to wear.
DeleteI love it too
