Revlon Royal

Hi everyone! I was debating on whether to make this post or not, only because the photos I managed to take at the time weren't the best. But we're pushing forward anyway!

See how ghostly my skin looks here? Totally not representative of real life!

Base coat: 1 coat of China Glaze Strong Adhesion
Polish: 2 coats of Royal
Top coat: 1 coat of Seche Vite

Royal is a squishy royal blue jelly. I have to say, I really loved this one. I got so many compliments on it too (usually my nails go unnoticed so even one compliment is worth mentioning). One lady even asked if it was Shellac. This polish is crazy shiny in person. And it's very pigmented too. I was expecting a sheer mess but two coats were enough for opaqueness.

The formula was lovely to worth with too! This polish is definitely a win in my book.

You can find this anywhere Revlon is sold and I purchased mine on the Walgreens website.

Thanks for stopping by!

Zoya Kristen and Revlon Whimsical

Hey everyone! Today I've got a dreamy, glittery combination to show you...

Close-up of the bottle

Base coat: 1 coat of Trind base coat
Polish: 2 coats of Kristen, 2 coats Whimsical
Top coat: 1 coat of Seche Vite

Whimsical is a milky baby blue filled with pink, blue and iridescent glitter. There's also some shimmer in there too. Kristen is a grey-ed out baby blue. It seemed like the perfect match to me!

Unfortunately, Whimsical was a stubborn polish. I didn't get much glitter but plenty of base. I think this is why I got some bubbling (which is probably evident in the photos). That was annoying, honestly and I doubt I'll ever play with this polish again. Kristen is pleasant to work with, it wasn't my first rodeo with this baby.

I got Whimsical from a swap a little while back and Kristen is one of the polishes I got from a Zoya promo months ago. You guys remember the ones where they'd post promo codes on Twitter in limited amounts? Some of them were for a free polish plus free shipping. I was lucky enough to get Kristen this way.
