Revlon: Not So Blueberry (With guest nails!)

Hello, Everyone!  Today I have a swatch of Revlon's "Not So Blueberry".  The color isn't actually mine.   It's my sister's.  Well, at least, I bought it for her, so it's hers.  I didn't use it.  But!  I did her nails over Spring Break.  And here they are, shaped, buffed, and painted. :D

Two coats.

"Not So Blueberry" is a lavender/periwinkle shimmer polish.  The pictures are color accurate.

The color is supremely light and airy.  It doesn't seem heavy on the nails.  "Not So Blueberry" is a part of Revlon's scented nail polishes.  This one is supposed to smell like blueberries, obviously. :D  And it kind of did.  It certainly smelled good.

And then my sister wanted the "Black Shatter".  So we shatter-fied it.

It looks good!  It's a nice combination!

I love this color.  And yet I don't own it.  I bought it as a gift because I am a loving sister. :D  I'm considering getting it for myself.  My Spring Break is practically over.  Farewell.

My sister has a blog of her own, and check it out, HERE, if you're bored. LOL. 

OH!  And, everyone, don't forget to make a Zoya account by 5 PM EST, becaue there is a promo coming up~!

Revlon: Mad About Mango

Hello, Everyone!  Today I have one of Revlon's SCENTED nail polishes!  I saw the display in Walgreens and saw the color "Mad About Mango" and I LOVE LOVE LOVE mangos, so I had to get it.  I got the color more for the smell than the color.  I was actually afraid the color wouldn't go with my skin tone.  Anywho!  Here's the review.

 

All photos were taken by a window with sunlight with three coats.  The photos are color accurate.

"Mad About Mango" is a bright orange creme.  It is opaque in 2 coats, but it is rather streaky, forcing me to use three coats.  The color is supposed to smell like mangos when dry, at least, that's what I assumed.  And you know what happens when you assume.  Anyway, long story short, the polish definitely smells fruity, but I wouldn't say MANGO-y.  After I applied Seche Vite to make it shiny (because it's not all that shiny by itself), I could still faintly smell the fruitiness.  Which was unexpected, but a good unexpected.

The application was fine, just streaky, and drying time was normal.  Removal was easy.  As for the wear, I only wore it for a day and a half, but for that time, it didn't chip.

This color is bright and fun and perfect for the summer!  So perhaps now isn't the best time for it, but then again, I don't follow the season's colors.  I wear what I feel like wearing.  End of story. :D  I got it at Walgreens for a little under $5.  I ended up really liking the color, and it went fine with my skin tone. :D

That's all for today!  It's been quite cloudy where I live.  But luckily not too cold.  I have been ITCHING to get my hands on the Katy Perry Collection and the Anchor's Away collection.  It's slightly killing me on the inside that I don't have them yet.

Sorry that I keep changing the layout of the blog.  I just change my mind too often.  But I like the layout now because it's simple and doesn't seem crowded or busy.  But we'll see how long it lasts. Lol.
