The Face Shop - eBay haulin'

Tweet

Hello my lovely readers!

Today I have a sunny yellow polish, a bargain I might add, that I stumbled upon on a recent eBay browse. I am a sucker for a budget polish and this little fellow cost me about €2 to include postage. How can you go wrong?! From "The Face Shop" is a Korean brand of cosmetics which include skincare, make up, and men's cosmetics! You can check out their website here. I regularly pick up bits and pieces from Korea on eBay and I love the little boxes they come in, not to mention the free samples! A quirky little "thefaceshop" logo is engraved onto the lid too -snazzy! They also have a facebook page

I am not a big fan of yellow but because I don't have many I was seeking a good vibrant canary yellow shade. This fits my bill. It took three coats (and my nail line is not visible in real life) to achieve full opacity. I think this polish is a wonderful summer shade (if your skin tone can handle it!) and I know I will be rocking it with some neutral clothes later on in the season.

Thanks for reading :)

Ruby White Tips - Shake Me, Shake Me Hard!

I love a good neon , and this polish is a damn hot neon!

Laura at Ruby White Tips recently sent me some polishes for review. I had to pick this one out first because it looks like creamy yellow ice cream in the bottle and it does not disappoint on the nails!

I used four thin coats to achieve this opacity, and you can still see a little nail line through. It may be best over a white base, though I don't mind a bit of VNL personally.

I must give the name on this a mention, it cracks me up! Shake Me, Shake me Hard - and I did, I shook the bottle hard before application!

You can find Ruby White Tips on their website here and on facebook here. I will have some more of these beauties to show you soon, so keep your eyes peeled!
