Matte About You Topcoat!

Okay guys, I apologize that 1. My posts have been so non existent and 2. They're so unorganized. My laptop charger broke so I'm currently living SANS COMPUTER. The worst. So I've been blogging right from my phone.

Anyways, I got my first ever matte top coat, Essie's Matte About You. SERIOUSLY WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY LIFE?! I don't even know what to say I adore it. Easy application. Fast drying. So far I don't know about chipping because I cannot wait to post this! Absolute A++ could not be happier.

I'll post pics of my current mani without top coat first then with will follow right after. The last pic is just my response to the awesomeness that is matte.

Cutesy toes

Okay guys, here we go. I'm gonna try my first ACTUAL nail related post.

Now I almost feel like I'm cheating posting this one, because I didn't actually do the painting myself.. My boyfriend did. I had just gotten out of the hospital and he wanted to do something to make me smile. Also, I'm gonna post pictures of my toes.. Which is obviously not as aesthetically pleasing as a hand, but this really is kinda cute.

The red colour is Essie's 'Forever Yummy'. I adore it. Good consistency in the formula, it is an incredibly smooth application. The picture is literally one coat with no clean up, so that alone tells you how great it is. The colour itself is a very very classic bright red carpet colour red. Very glam, very pretty.

The little heart on my big toe was done using Quo by ORLY's Instant Artist in BLACK. I have two of these and I really like concept of them, but they can be super hard to use. I find that a lot of polish will gloop down the brush all at once unless you're extremely careful.

Anyways guys, I think that's about all I can really think of to say about this one, let me know how I did.

Immediately after being done.

About a week later now.. Crazy staying power. Does anyone else find their toe polish barely ever chips?
