NOTD: Rimmel Caramel Cupcake

I'm always on the hunt for the perfect nude polish. Essie's Sand Tropez has always been my favorite nude but I think I've found its rival for my favorite nude nail polish. Rimmel's 60 seconds nail polish in Caramel Cupcake is such a pretty color. It's not completely beige; it seems to have a slight pinkness to it. I would describe it as a caramel like beige with a hint of a dusty rose undertone. The polish also has a sheen to it.

3 coats and flash

The formula of this polish is pretty thick. Two coats is actually opaque enough but I put three because I felt like it makes the color look better. I really love this color. It's a nice change from the bright colors that I've been wearing in the past few months. I believe I paid $2.88 or something like that I know it was less than $3 at Walmart for this polish. I recommend it.

NOTD: OPI You're Such a Budapest

Recently I've been loving blue and lavender/lilac nail polish. OPI's You're Such a Budapest is from the Euro Centrale collection. This color has been raved about by so many people. This color has become one of my  my favorite Spring polishes. This color is the perfect in between color because it's not purple and it's not blue either. I would say it's a mix of a periwinkle and a lilac.

 This polish needs 3-4 coats for maximum opacity. It wears really well. The color lasts around 4 days with minimal chipping on my nails.

Whenever I wear this polish I can't stop looking at my nails. I have an obsession with this color. This polish just makes me happy.

April Favorites!

For the month of April I've been using the same products I loved last month but I added a few more Spring colored products to my every day make up routine. 

For foundation I've been loving the Revlon Nearly Naked foundation. I got the shade 130 Shell. It's yellow toned and the reason why I got it is because I have quite a bit of redness and yellow toned products are supposed to take away the redness. This foundation gives me medium coverage. I use my beauty blender to apply it and it's just perfect. It feels so light on the skin and it feels like I'm not wearing any make up. 

I've also been loving the Revlon Nearly Naked pressed powder in 020 light. I love this powder because it's finely milled and it feels creamy. Adding the powder after the foundation just makes it completely full coverage for me.

My go-to blush has been NARS Orgasm blush. It's my holy grail blush because it gives me a nice glow and it's perfect for any season. 

I've been obsessed with coral nails. My favorites have been Essie Olé Caliente and Cute as a Button. 

For lips I've been using the Maybelline Vivids lipstick in Shocking Coral. It's a bright coral with pink undertones. When I want a move natural looking lip I've been reaching for L'Oreal Colour Riche Caresse in #171 Pink Cashmere. It's the perfect pink. I've actually mixed these two shades together and it looks nice and springy.

If I want my eyes to have a pop of color I've been reaching for the Milani Liquid Eye eyeliner in 04 Aqua. It's the perfect teal/aqua color. It doesn't smudge and stays in place all day.

NOTD: Essie Cute as a Button

I obviously have an obsession with nail polish and essie. I've been wanting cute as a button for quite some time but it was always sold out. When I finally saw it I grabbed it. I would describe this color as the perfect coral. It's more of a pinky coral which I like because it doesn't look orangy. Essie describes it as a juicy persimmon delight. It's just cute, fun and fresh for Spring/Summer. 

The formula of this polish is thick and creamy. Two coats make it perfectly opaque. Applying it is almost effortless. I will be wearing this a lot in the upcoming summer months. 

Sincerely, JoJo. 

NOTD: Essie Olé Caliente

Essie's olé caliente is one of my all time favourite nail polishes. It was part of their Spring collection last year. It's basically a bright orange/red/coral colour. I love it so much. 

3 coats + seche vite = extra glossy nails ;)

I love this formula because it's thick. Two to three coats is enough for maximum opacity. I'm kind of sad that it was limited edition but you can still find it on amazon. If you can find it I highly recommend it. I've noticed that Come Here from this year's resort collection looks similar but more neon. I would suggest getting that one if you can't get this one. 

Sincerely, JoJo.
