NOTW: Addictive Plum


Don't you love dark plum/oxblood reds too during the winter time?
I do! I tend to those dark colors during those cold days!

Here's my NOTW:
L'Oréal: Addictive Plum
This looks darker than it really s (I blame my stupid camera on my cell!).
It is a dark color, but it's more a plummy as it is an oxblood color.

It's opaque after only 1 layer! I'm really loving the l'Oréal Rolor Riche range, but I already have a good collection of polishes. I'm actually keeping myself strong not to buy anymore colors I already have... (Yeah good luck with that girl!)

What plummy/oxblood polishes do you beauties have?

NOTW: She's Pampered

Here I am with another NOTW!

I'm sure everyone agrees that red is THE holidays' nail polish color. Hence my choice for an Essie's red:
Essie: She's Pampered
She's Pampered is an indulgent (as they say on their website) red and makes part of the 2012 Winter Collection.

This polish is a cool toned pink based red and applies smooth as a baby's but :)
It would be ideal to apply 2 coats, but I only put on 1 coat in the picture above.

I must admit that Essie chips quite easily on me, so it's a bit disappointing that I pay that much money (Essie is in the average price range in Belgium). Nevertheless, I love the cream formula and how opaque Essie colors can be. Not to mention that Essie is known for their DBP, toluene and formaldehyde free formula, yay!

I only buy Essie if I'm totally in love with the color.
And this color is a true holiday color :)

NOTW: Fuchsia

Herro herro my beauties, and I'm back with another NOTW!

I have been dying to show you girls my love for this polish:
ELF: Fuchsia
As you can see it's a polish by ELF.
ELF stands for eyes lips face and is known for its cheap, yet qualitative make up goodies.

It's pretty dark rose in real life, although it shows a purple on the website...
It's opaque in 2 coats and has stayed put on my nails for almost an entire week o_O

Come on, you have to admit that for only 2,5€, that's a pretty darn good deal!

This polish is definitely my go to polish for winter 2012. Go ELF!
