Essie Magnetic Nail Polish- Review

Welcome to my first review...and this is how it all went down.


Walking through my local Rite-Aid with my fab husband I stopped in my tracks and became very distracted by Essie's new Magnetic nail polish... I am such a fan of cute nails and I just had to get it. I begged the husband ha ha not really. So I picked up this nail polish with such high hopes not only because I LOVE ESSIE nail polish but also because it was 12.99, for that price this polish should be amazing right?? I have NEVER in my life paid that much for nail polish but I really wanted to try it. 
                                    So I got on the polish train.... this is my before picture


Not to bad, my nails are a little dirty :(  I have always had short natural nails. I tried getting my nails done  but for me having short nails works the best. PLUS when I am bored I like to change my nail polish... So when I first tried this I put on my normal one coat and let it dry a bit and then put on a second coat. Then I held the magnet over my nail. I have really small nails and this part was very difficult for me. The magnet hit my nail smudging my polish a few different times. Then because you have to put such a thick coat on  for the polish to actually take its shape it began to loose the snake like appearance once I moved the magnet away.



So after about three tries I finally got all my nails done....waiiiiiit for it

BAM

First of all I would like to say that this is not a user friendly product, not one bit. I had such a hard time doing my nails. Then I cleaned off the magnet with WHAT ELSE>>>>NAIL POLISH REMOVER and now my magnet does not work AT ALL. Essie needs to rethink how people use this product, or charge maybe 4.99 for the polish but not almost 13 bucks! It is a rip off and I will not buy this again unless they redo the product and make it easier to use.

This does not get my vote!

Drug Store Foundations

                           THE BATTLE OF THE FINDING THE PERFECT FOUNDATION So for some odd reason I got it in my head that in the middle of winter with my skin being dry, flaky and breaking out would be the PERFECT time to try new foundations! So I grabbed my coupons and shopped at my local Walgreens and Rite Aid. Walking through the makeup section can be overbearing because there are so many different kinds of foundations on the market. You have full coverage, ageless, photo finish it can be a little annoying honestly. Over the last month or so I tried six different foundations which can all be found at your local drug store. Before we move on I should say that I don't like a luminous finish. I like my foundation and face to be overall matte. My skin right now is dry from it being winter but I also at times can look like I have an oil slick on my face. Each foundation I did use the Two Faced Hangover Primer. ...
