The Face Shop Nail Polish OR203 Swatches and Review




Hello all! I got a new nail polish from Face Shop yesterday and I put it on today. This is in OR203 and is a sheer nail color. It's the first sheer nail polish I have tried from Face Shop and I really love it. There was only one shade of sheer nail color left when I visited the store so I decided to just go with orange. I am soo glad I did because it is just so lovely! It retails at P99 and it's all worth it!

Here are the swatches below. I love this color so much and I think this looks very lovely. Orange is the hottest color this summer and so far this is the prettiest orange shade nail polish I have worn. It almost looks like a candy :). This will make a great summer beach nails!

It's sheer so I had to apply 5 coats to achieve this color and that's alright because it doesn't chip like what happens to the classic nail polish if you put on too much coats. I didn't add a top coat to this anymore because I was already happy and satisfied with the shine it gives alone. I always thought orange will make my skin look a little darker but the opposite happened as my skin looks fairer which I like a lot :).
Let me know what you think girls! Hope this review helps :). If you have any comments or questions, please don't hesitate to leave it down below. 
This nail color deserves 5 STARS!!! Good value for money, vibrant color, and easy to apply. I couldn't ask for anything except for more color choices! I bought another shade today and will review it hopefully this week. I'll see how long this sheer nail polish last first before I take it off for another color. Hope you will check that out too.

Take care everyone!

The Face Shop Nail Polish BL606 Swatches and Review

The Face Shop BL606

Hey all! It's been awhile since I last did a review on FS nail colors so I'm doing one tonight. It's the summer so bright colors are so fun to wear now! I have a few bright colors to review and I will try to make a review as soon as I have free time off work. For now I won't go in depth with this one as I have reviewed a few of Face Shop's nail polish before.

The color is very pretty, it's not streaky, and very easy to apply. It dries pretty quickly which I really like as I am oftentimes impatient when waiting for my nails to get done. This particular shade made my skin appear fairer and looks cool to the eyes. One thing I didn't like about this particular bottle though is it chipped very fast! After 2 days it already started chipping which is kind of a bummer. Even so, I still like it because the color is just so pretty especially on the toe nails. Blue is definitely in this summer and this nail polish will make every beach nails look good :D. I give this nail color and overall rating of 4 STARS! 

Have a wonderful summer everyone!!!

The Face Shop Nail Polish BL604 Review

This is a review of Face Shop Nail Polish BL604 that I bought yesterday. I was so excited to put them on today and wanted to share with you a review of what I think about this product. Please don't mind the stains and blemishes on my nails though. The star here is the nail color :)

I only applied 2 coats and this is how it looks like. I like how opaque it is that I was able to achieve this with just 2 coats. It wasn't streaky at all like other local brands I have tried. It glided on my nails very well. I don't mind the brush at all because it fits perfectly on my nails. I just had to be careful applying it though because the color is a little dark and I'm sure cleaning it up will be a lot of work. So I did manage to apply it easily but I'm no expert so smearing and smudging cannot be avoided. Especially when you are too excited to wear it!





This is the darkest color I have worn so far because this is as close I can get to a black nail color. I think black is too dramatic for me so this is the best option.

Pros:

-It glides on easily
-Not streaky
-Dries out fast
-Very pigmented
-Gorgeous color
-Brush is the right size
-Looks good alone even without top coat


Cons:
-I can't think of any yet :)


I have used a few Face Shop nail colors and I notice that they chip after 4 days. Maybe because I'm just working on my laptop too much that it wears off quickly, I don't know. I have to say that the staying power though is better than my LA Colors which breaks after 2 days. Overall I love the product and I will continue buying it.

I had to remove the nail polish today because it started chipping. So it only stayed flawless on my nails for 3 days. Although I have to say that the damaged parts were only on the tips of my nails and not all over it. Normally it stays on for more than a week until it completely breaks to a point that I cannot take anymore. But still it's all good and I love this nail color. I did another review of the coral-y shade polish in RD301 so do check it out.

The Face Shop Nail Polish Haul

I previously mentioned about liking Korean Cosmetics because of their quality and value for money. Another Korean brand I love is Face Shop. They have wide array of makeup and cosmetics to choose from. Although I have not tried their skin care products, I have gotten my hands on their makeup and nail polishes. The colors are vibrant and very wearable. Check out the latest colors I got from their shop!





Shade # and ingredients listed at the back. The bottle comes in 11ml bottle which I think is a lot of product. Check out how elegant the colors are up close.






These colors are amazing if you are into dark nail colors but don't like the dramatic effect of a black nail polish. The Face It line is more pricey at P285 but the two others are their classic nail colors I might say, which is at P95. Once you have painted your nails with these, you'll say it's definitely worth the price and you get the value for your money because it's just stunning. Reviews to follow so stay tuned!
