Wet & Wild Megalast

“Private Viewing- 204B”

Spring its finally here and so are the many different kind of ‘spring’ and ‘summer’ nail polish shades at our local stores. 

I’ve been feeling out of sorts the last few weeks and when I saw this neutral (nude) shade at my local Rite Aid Pharmacy, it really called out to me. Today, I am reviewing another fantastic color by Wet & Wild Megalast-“Private Viewing- 204B” which I’ve been wearing for the last 8 days.

Their Claim:

·         A revolutionary resin polymer system for exceptional color adhesion

·         Calcium and mineral fortified to help prevent nail discoloration

·         3-Free: No Formaldehyde, Toluene, or Phthalates

·         Our ManiCurve Pro Brush is absolutely incredible - The rod is flat so the liquid drains down to the bristles equally, and the rounded bristles hug your nail curves perfectly

All the end results of going to the nail salon, but without the hassle. The driving, the sitting, the waiting, the forced small-talk, and especially the pricey manicurist bills - forget it! Looking salon pampered just got easier! These 5-day, chip-resistant formulas are just so darn great, delivering a professional, yet far more accessible, look. Ever wonder what actually makes a "salon" formula? Read the features!

Ingredients

Butyl Acetate, Ethyl Acetate, Nitrocellulose, Phthalic Anhydride/Trimellitic Anhydride/Glycols Copolymer, Acetyl Tributyl Citrate, Isopropyl Alcohol, Stearalkonium Hectorite, Adipic Acid/Fumaric Acid/Phthalic Acid/Tricyclodecane Dimethanol Copolymer, Dimethicone, Citric Acid, Calcium Aluminum Borosilicate, Styrene/Acrylates Copolymer, Silica, Talc, [+/- (MAY CONTAIN/PEUT CONTENIR): Mica, Titanium Dioxide/CI 77891, Yellow 5 Lake/CI 19140, Iron Oxides/CI 77491, CI 77499, Manganese Violet/CI 77742, Ferric Ammonium Ferrocyanide/CI 77510, Ultramarines/CI 77007, Red 6 Lake/CI 15850, Red 7 Lake/CI 15850, Red 30 Lake/CI 73360, Red 36/CI 12085, Blue 1 Lake/CI 42090]

My Thoughts:

As I mentioned before, as soon as I saw this polish I felt the need to have it.  The “Manicurve Pro Brush” does make the application process easier as it covers the entire nail bed in just one stroke. 

In order to acquire the desire shade, I applied a total of three coats.  Please allow a few minutes to pass in between coats in order to reduce the length it would take for the polish to dry and it will also reduce the amount of air bubbles that may appear.

Pros:

 

The company claims that the polish may last up to five days before you start seeing any chipping on the tip of your nails. 

This polish actually lasted 8 days before I noticed it was time to re-do my manicure.

It was fairly easy to remove the polish from my nails;

The Pro Brush really makes the application easier and faster;

The low price it’s perfect for those (like yours truly) who have a very limited budget.

Cons:

Can’t really find anything wrong with this product at all!!

Sadly, I have to say that this color was not “Hubby Approved”.  He kindly told me that the color was too close to my skin tone.  But I think that’s what I like about it..

I loved this color and I will probably wear it more often during the spring and summer days.  The natural and glossy salon like finish was perfect and easy to accomplish.

Where to get it:

I found this little gem at my local Rite Aid Pharmacy or you can purchase it here:

Product Review: SinfulColors Professional- Jade Kat

SinfulColors Professional

Jade Kat #2196 Review

Today we are reviewing Jade Kat, a perfect color for the upcoming St Patrick’s Day Celebration.

Jade Kat by SinfulColors Professional is a shimmering emerald green shade with a nice smooth finish. 

As always, I found this little gem at my local Walgreens for only $1.99! 

This weekend our beautiful city of Savannah will be celebrating St. Patrick’s Day.  As is the tradition, the celebrations will begin with the parade followed by other equally fun events.  

The St. Patrick’s Day Parade will be held on Friday, March 17^th and for the very first time, our children have asked to go, therefore guess where we will be?   

With our Masks, shirts and the traditional necklaces ready, the only thing we were missing were our manicure and I was so excited when I found this amazingly vibrant color. 

Their product description:

• This simmering emerald green shade is definitely not jaded.
• Bold, Vibrant, Must Have Color.
• Toluene, Formaldehyde & DBP Free.

My Review:

One coat is definitely not enough to reach the full potential of this polish.  I applied a total of three coats in order to get the true bold color of this polish. 

Allow 3 to 4 minutes (or longer if you can) in between coats in order to experience a smoother finish and less chances to see air tiny bubbles. 

I highly recommend you add this bold and vibrant color to your collection!

 The Pros:

Good quality polish at a low value... 
Smooth finish...
Does not stain your nail...
The brush makes the application easy

 The Cons:

Chips off easily around the tip.. usually between 7 to 10 days.

... yeah, can't find anything else wrong with this... I really find this vibrant color fun and perfect for St Patrick's Day Celebration!  

Product Review: Wet and Wild: Under Your Spell

Wet n Wild Megalast Salon Nail Color:

Under Your Spell 216B Review

  

Welcome, what I have for you today is another nail polish review!!  I am reviewing one of the deepest color I have ever own.  This magnificent color is from the Wet & Wild Megalast Salon Nail Color collection. 

My son described this color perfectly:  “216B Under Your Spell” [mom, this color] reminds me of the color of a “coffee bean” because of its deep brown color with a touch of a red [shimmer]”.

If you follow us on Facebook page, Caramel Curlz N Swirls, then you probably remember the video I posted a few days ago in which I shared some great “sales” from the RiteAid Pharmacy.  I posted this video six days ago Two New Polishes.

                 

Their product description:

All the end results of going to the nail salon, but without the hassle, the driving, the sitting, the waiting, the forced small-talk, and especially the manicurist bills- forget it!  Looking salon pampered just got easier! These 5-day, chip-resistant formulas are just so darn great, delivering a professional, yet far more accessible.

Their claim:

·      A revolutionary resin polymer for exceptional color adhesion;

·      Calcium and mineral fortified to help prevent nail discoloration;

·      Formaldehyde, toluene and phthalate fee!

·      Our ManiCurve Pro Brush! It’s absolutely incredible! The rod is flat so the liquid drains down to the bristles equally and the rouded bristles hug your nail curves perfectly!

My Review:

As I stated in my last video, I was hesitant about purchasing this polish [despite the low price of $1.99] because of the type of brush, but I decided to give it a try anyway.  I fell in love with this deep bold color and since it really matched my mood, why not step out my comfort zone. 

“Under Your Spell” has definitely made my ‘favorite colors’ list.  I love the deep color base with the red shimmer which gives a vibrant and smooth finish.

I applied three coats to reach the full capacity, of course, I applied each coat every 10 minutes in order to allow the polish to dry evenly [and without forming any bubbles].   Its quick drying formula was highly convenient.

However, the only ‘con’ of this polish is that it does chip off easily around the tips but it does last 6 to 7 days!

I highly recommend this brand and color, the “pro-curve” brush works wonderfully and provides great coverage in just one swipe.
