Essie Jiggle Hi Jiggle Low nail polish is a beautiful, sparkling silver hue from the Winter 2015 nail polish collection. This fabulous silver nail polish is easy to wear and extremely festive; after all, the winter season includes the holiday season! One must be festive 😉

One of the big trends in nail polish for the fall and winter seasons is metallic nail polish. Metallic hues are being show in all forms of traditional metal including gold, silver, pewter and rose gold. Essie Jiggle Hi Jiggle Low is ideal for the winter and holiday seasons since the silver color works perfectly with winter pastels, while adding sparkle to the seasons’ neutral color palettes. 

I tested out Essie’s Jiggle Hi Jiggle Low with two coats of color and one base coat. The nail polish turned out to be very strong! It lasted eight days before I received one chip. Love that!

In addition to being a fabulous nail polish color for the winter and holiday seasons, Essie’s Jiggle Hi Jiggle Low is a great neutral hue which can be worn during any season of the year. This makes it an ideal color to add to ones’ nail polish wardrobe. It’s neutral and it sparkles, what else can you ask for?

Christian Louboutin Farida nail polish review

Christian Louboutin Farida is a beautiful, sparkling brown nail polish from the Christian Louboutin “Noirs” nail polish collection. Brown is a nail polish color I do not normally purchase, but, Farida by Christian Louboutin is a brown hue which seemed un-brown to me; if that makes any sense!

Brown, to me, is a neutral hue which is used to make other colors seem richer. As a nail polish, the thought of brown never really peaked my interest until I spotted Farida in Christian Louboutin’s nail polish collection. This fabulous brown hue sparkles; in such a way that is seems as though it is a color, not just a fall neutral. Love that! Christian Louboutin Farida seems jewel-like to me, and I love anything that sparkles or suggests bling!

I tested out Christian Louboutin Farida nail polish with two coats of color and one base coat; no top coat. The nail polish is extremely long lasting and lasted eight days without chipping! The only reason I took off the nail polish on day eight was due to the fact that my nails grew and I had a space between my cuticles and the paint; and that bothers me.

One of the things I love about Christian Louboutin nail polish is the fact that is it free from the five nasty chemicals found in many other nail polish brands. Knowing Christian Louboutin nail polish is safe and natural, makes it seem even more luxurious. My only complaint is the length of the stiletto-inspired brush. It is a little bit too long and unbalanced which makes it a little bit challenging to apply the nail polish. That being said, once Christian Louboutin’s nail polish is applied, it is long lasting and the color saturation is exquisite.

I am in love with Christian Louboutin Farida nail polish and look forward to wearing it throughout the fall season. You can find Christian Louboutin nail polish online here and here.


Dolce & Gabbana Verde Bosco nail polish review

Dolce Gabbana’s new Verde Bosco nail polish for the fall 2014 season is just as mysterious as it is alluring. The deep, dark, hunter green hue appears black at first glance, but when examined closely, one can see the hunter green color hiding inside.

Playing off of the captivating colors from Dolce Gabbana’s fall 2014 runway, Verde Bosco nail polish captures the magic of Dolce Gabbana’s runway inspiration which offered a color palette inspired by the bewitching allure of nature. Hunter green also happens to be one of the “IT” colors of the fall 2014; making Dolce Gabbana’s Verde Bosco nail polish an easy way to wear the hunter green color trend this autumn season.

I tested out Dolce Gabbana’s Verde Bosco nail polish with one base coat and two coats of color. The nail polish stayed chip free for six days. Love that! The color was fun as it seemingly changed from appearing black, to a deep hunter green, depending upon the light. I love the mysterious effect Verde Bosco by Dolce Gabbana has and will enjoy wearing it this fall season.

Dolce Gabbana Verde Bosco nail polish works well with fall 2014’s dark autumn color palette. The hunter green hue also blends well with fall 2014’s neutral palette while offering a slight color contrast to the season’s blacks and grays. Verde Bosco by Dolce Gabbana also offers a sophisticated touch to evening apparel this fall 2014 season.
