Its SPRING TIME.... Bring out the COLOR!



So its official SPRING HAD SPRUNG! Well in UAE its been like that for the past month but I am not complaining I love spring…the colors…..the flowers…..the new makeup collections! I have a few nailpaints that I thought would be perfect for this colorful and bright month. I basically like bright colors this time of the year but not in the neon sense, I like the muted bright colors, some would call them pastels so yeah THAT! I also like the odd dark colors as in spring these colors will look amazing with the TAN we all would get. So without further ado I have rounded up 8 nailpaints that I own and I will also be listing down a few as my wish list or as options for you guys. So let’s get with it –
  1. Chanel 'JUNE' ( $27) - Its a very pretty pastel peachy color. Its very light so it can be used as a base coat too. But after 2-3 coats its very true to the bottle color. This was actually a Christmas gift from my husband as my birthday comes in JUNE. So this nailpaint is very well loved emotionally and functionally!
  2. Maxfactor  ' Diva Violet' ($6) - This mini MaxFactor nailpaint color is a very nice muted purple shade something which reminds me of essie 'warm &toasted turtleneck'. 
  3. Wet n Wild Wild Shine in 'Blazed' ($1.49) - This one is a very bright coraly-orange color which is perfect for that pop-of-color. 
  4. NYX 'Crystal' ($4) - This one is the prefect shimmer nailpaint. Its very versatile as i use it as a topcoat or just as a nailpaint for days when i do not want color but just shimmery-glittery pretty nails.

Now these are my much darker nailpaints because i personally think that a tan and a dark nailpaint look exceptionally beautiful. These are the ones i reach for on those days:
  1. Bourjois Ultra Shine 'Cerise Noire/21' ($10)- This one is a Classic Deep Rusty Blood Red and i love it. Its superb for Fall/Winter but i always find myself going back to this once in a while in spring/summer time too. Lasted on my nails for 5 days.....thats a big deal!
  2. Nina Ultra Pro MATTE 'Punki Purple' ($2)- This one was a recent purchase from one of the Flea Markets and i haven't really heard of this brand earlier but i liked the idea of a MATTE nailpaint so i went for it and i simply LOVE the color, its the perfect mix of color and intensity.
  3. Rimmel 60Sec 'Funtime Fuschia' ($6)- I love me some PINK! And this one is my all time favorite bright chirpy fuchsia pink. One coat gives true-to-the-bottle color and has an amazing staying power.
  4. MAC CREAM 'In the Dark....Purple' ($16) - I love this deep purple color from MAC one of my all time favorite color. One coat is enough to get the true color and it stays for a long time on the nails.
