Butter London: Blagger and CH 47 & 48

I've had this in my drafts for a long time now, I love Butter London Blagger; if it wasn't such a pain to get off it would be my favorite blue. I did two coats, the formula is great but almost always chips on me so I tried something different: I changed up my base and top coats. Essie Protein Base and Good To Go for my top coat made this mani last 4 days with no chips before I took it off (that's a long time for me ESPECIALLY with a Butter London). I used Cheeky plates 47 and 48 for the super hero images and lightning bolts and stamped using Sally Hansen Celeb City. Love a glitter polish stamped on a bright creme!

Nicole by OPI: New CVS Exclusives- swatches

Hi Monkeys!  I have the new Nicole by OPI exclusives for you today. They're out in CVS stores and retail for $7.99; fun stuff, let's get to it. All are 2 coats, no top coat unless otherwise specified and all had good dry time.

A pale rose pearly frost. Application was easy, just watch out for brush strokes.

This almost looks like  a silver frost with a hint of pink to it, 3 coats, no top coat and application was easy.

My least favorite of the bunch because even with two generous coats, you can still see nail line. If you notice my index finger, at a different angle there is no nail line which is great but makes for a tricky application.

A berry wine creme that covers like a dream. No issues with this one.

A muted bubble gum pink creme, 3 coats with a slower dry time than the others but not too bad and application was easy as well. Love the hue and softness on this one, so girly.

A purple creme with red undertones, reminds me of your typical artificial grape coloring for candy. Application was great and no nail line with two coats.

My favorite out of the bunch, a bright medium blue creme, 2 coats, no flaws and the color is cheery!

There's something in these CVS exclusives for everyone whether you like frosts, cremes, bright, rich or bold. Great eclectic collection.
