The Face Shop Nail Polish GR506

It's been awhile since I posted a review on The Face Shop Nail Polish. I already have a few to go through, but this is the first one on my list because it's more appropriate for summer. I have been using this nail color for 3 straight weeks since I got it! It's a very pretty teal color that's perfect for the season. I have used it on my last nail art, and I love it a lot! This is the Lovely:ME EX Nails, and the shade is GR506. You can get it from any The Face Shop Store for P95.

Without Flash 

The color is just so pretty! 

I love how it adds a pop of color on the nails and gives it a fun vibe. It brightens the skin too so I can see this working on any skin tone. It's very true to its color as you can see in the photos above. This particular product is thicker than their regular TFS Nail Polish so it's more opaque, dries quickly on the brush but slower when applied to the nails because of the consistency. I normally apply 2-3 coats, and I'm good, but I always make sure that I allow enough drying time in between layers to prevent bubbles. It also makes the nail polish last longer and not chip quickly. It has a slight gloss already so you can skip the top coat, but if you want it glossier and have a cleaner look, feel free to apply a top coat. This isn't streaky so it's easy to apply.

Really love how cute the color is 

Just ignore the mess around my nails :)

Drying time is okay but not the quickest. I normally wait about 3 minutes in between coats and 5-10 minutes for it to be completely dry, (depending on how much product I apply on each layer) when I'm done with the final coat, which is not bad at all. If you're too impatient to wait that long, which I sometimes am, I recommend you use Seche Vite Top Coat! I bought a mini one last month, and it's seriously amazing and worth the price, and the hype! The small bottle will last you a long time so it's really worth it. I'll write up another review on that soon.

Still The Face Shop Nail Polish is my favorite brand of nail color to use because they have amazing color selection, very inexpensive, and last long. They also have more expensive nails polishes, which are smoother, longer lasting, and better quality like the Face It and the Wide ones. For the record, this isn't a sponsored post. I just love the brand and their products :).

I hope you enjoyed this post! Until my next blog post! Take care! ♥

The Face Shop Lovely Me:Ex Style My Eyebrow

Hey everyone! I have a new product review for you all (at last!) and it is on The Face Shop Lovely Me: Ex Style My Eyebrow in 01 Brown Grey. I have had this eyebrow pencil since November last year, and it's been my go to brow product ever since. I got it from The Face Shop for only P150, which is very inexpensive and will last you a long time. Since I got this, I use it more often than my other brow products, and I have just sharpened it about 5 times. I believe this is available in 3 shades, and the others are dark and light brown.

I have dark-brown hair, and this pencil is just a nice color for my brows because I like it thicker but have a lighter color. I've been growing out my brows for a while now so I like that this pencil has a grey tint to it because it doesn't make my brows look so strong and dark. This is a hard pencil so its' easier to control and more forgiving because it doesn't deposit too much product You still need to be light handed when you use this though, but not when using a softer pencil. If you did apply a little too much, just brush it off with a spoolie. You can also blend this with an angled brush if you want a softer brow look. If you're new at filling in your brows with a pencil, this is easier to use and a good place to start.

This product stays on my brows all day and doesn't melt at all even if you sweat, which is one of the best things I like about it. It's not waterproof but the staying power is really good, well unless if you wipe it off :). You get great quality and good pigmentation for the price! This color will also suit those who have lighter brown to blonde hair colors. 

Hope this review was helpful! Until my next post! ♥

NOTD: Purple and Yellow

Hey everyone. How are you all doing? I just want to quickly post a nail of the day photo. This isn't in any way inspired by the LA LAKERS :). I didn't notice it at all until fiance' brought it up because these are their colors. He thought it's inspired by the team, but no it's not. I only wanted to wear something new today, so I painted one nail yellow and the others purple to give it a fun and summer appropriate look.

I took this photo using my Note 2 without flash, so I can show you the true colors of the polishes on my nails. Do you like it?! I'm also publishing this from my phone to catch up on my blog. It's been a while since I last put up anything here.


I used one brand only and it's from The Face Shop. Color codes/names are listed below:

The Face Shop Nail Base Coat in 02
The Face Shop Nail Polish PP401
The Face Shop Nail Polish YL702

I'll be posting a new product review this week. I've just been pretty busy with work that I couldn't put it up sooner.

I hope you all are having a good night/day!

The Face Shop Nail Polish Review BK901

I always thought that black nail polishes were too much for me; that's why I haven't really bothered buying one. I imaged it would be difficult to clean up and work with, and a very sexy nail color. Until I finally decided to try it and see how it works out for me. Well, what do you know, I really like it! I just had to cut my nails because it looks better on shorter nails if you ask me. I'm really glad that I did because I think this is my new favorite nail color now! The price is still at P95 from any The Face Shop store. If you are new to black nail color, this is a good place to start without breaking your pocket :). 

The Face Shop Nail Polish BK901

This nail polish review is on The Face Shop Nail Polish BK901 from the Lovely ME collection. I think TFS reformulated their nail polishes because the Lovely Me:Ex line used to have a thick consistency that is a little difficult to work with, and dries pretty quickly on the wand, and now it's more runny. I didn't have a problem putting it on because as always, the brush is nice enough to work with and the thinner consistency helped me to work with it easily. Since it's a black nail color, I was more careful with the application because I don't want too much mess on my fingers as I know it'll be a pain to clean up.

I love how opaque and very black this nail polish is. I only applied 2 coats but you can see how bold the color is. I think my nails look better in black than any other colors, and I believe black will look good on all skin tones as well! This also dries quickly, which is another good thing about it. I didn't have to wait for long to apply the second layer. It stayed on my nails pretty good, and only started chipping after 5 days. I don't normally use the same color on my nails often, but I have worn this for almost a month now; that's how much I like it.

PROS:

Long wearing
Easy to apply
Inexpensive
Great quality
Very Opaque
Quick Dry
Beautiful color for all skin tones

CONS:

I don't believe there's any  ^_^

I tried wearing this the first time on slightly longer nails, but it didn't look nice to me, so I had to cut my nails short, and I love it. I think dark nail colors on shorter nails make it look classier and sophisticated. This nail polish has been a favorite product this month for sure, and I don't think I'll get tired of wearing this color on my nails.

My verdict: 5 STARS!!! 

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating this special occasion! Have fun :)

The Face Shop Lovely ME:EX Nail Polish OR201

Finally, after a long time since my last post, I now have a new The Face Shop Nail Polish review on the shade R201, and this is on the range Lovely ME:EX When I saw this nail polish, I was easily attracted to the color because it reminds me so much of melon milk which I love a lot :). I like pastel colors on my nails because it brightens my mood, and this one is a good addition to my collection. 

The Face Shop Lovely ME:EX Nail Polish OR201

I didn't use to like this range because it has a thicker consistency than the regular TFS nail polish, and because each layer is thick, it chips easier and faster. I only get this kind if there's a color that I cannot refuse, which was the case when I got this polish. When I applied it, however, I noticed that it'a runny now, less streaky, and easy to apply. What I have on my nails are 3 coats, and it's very opaque, which is another thing that I like about it. Anyone can use this shade, but this will especially complement those with fair skins. Below are some swatches, hope you like them!

This nail polish is true to its color as you can see on the picture. It's dries rather quickly now too, and as you can see, no bubbles! The brush has just the right size and length to allow you to have control and apply lightly if you don't want to deposit too much of the product on every coat. Applying a lot on each layer will only delay the drying process, chip easily, and make the nails look thick, one thing that I don't like.

Just ignore the dry skin around my nails :). I didn't clean it up anymore as I was very excited to take some shots and put up this post. This is how it looks like on a different lighting, and this nail polish just looks so pretty! If you're into orange nails, you really have to try this one.

So let's breakdown the pros and cons of this nail polish.

PROS

• Pretty color
• Dries quickly
• Not streaky
• Easy to apply
• Very opaque
• Just the right consistency
• Doesn't bubble
• Affordable

CONS

• I cannot think of any yet :D

My verdict: 5 STARS!!! This is a pretty affordable nail polish for the quality. I have tried a local brand which retails at half the price, but it really didn't work for me. If you're into good-quality nail polish with a wide variety of colors to choose from and don't want to hurt your pocket, this is one to consider.
