Gold Silk

Gold Silk by Rimmel is a great color! It's a pale gold with a pink undertone. It's neutral, metallic, shimmery. I love it! Plus, it's so easy to apply because the brush is wide and flat. It also dries pretty quickly which is great. I'm not quite sure if it actually holds up for 10 days like it says on the bottle because I normally don't keep a polish on for that long, but it definitely doesn't chip right away. Another plus is that it is inexpensive. I find them for a little over $3 at Target, and sometimes you can find coupons for a $1 off. Not bad at all!
My small collection. Hope to add more soon!


Do you have a favorite nail polish brand?

Ingrid

Today's exciting nail color choice is Ingrid by China Glaze! It's a dark gray/taupe shade with a very subtle golden shimmer. I absolutely love this color! It's deep, rich, very wintery, and is neutral which is an absolute must for me when it comes to choosing a nail polish.

Gold Coin

I love gold nail polishes, especially during the holidays! This is one from Revlon that I have been enjoying a lot lately. What's even better is that I got it for free using coupons! Sweet.


What are your favorite holiday nail colors?

Pretty Petals

I took my very plain, very boring nail color and turned it into something a little more fun. Still neutral colors, but with a little more interest. I'm thinking that I need another trip to the dollar store soon so I can pick up more L.A. Colors Art Deco nail art lacquer. I definitely need a lot more practice, but they're so fun!

Putty Concrete

I'm a fan of neutrals on nails. I have issues with nails clashing with outfits, and I like that a neutral color is always a no-brainer. It goes with everything. Today, I chose Putty Concrete by Icing. I believe I got it on clearance for about $2, but I actually like a lot of their polishes. A lot of them are chip resistant. They also go on smoothly and dry quickly, which is good because I'm impatient when it comes to drying nails. I'm also not the best painter so it's such a hassle when my nails become ruined when I don't wait long enough for them to dry thoroughly. Means I have to start all over again, and that is no bueno. This particular color is opaque after just one coat, but I put on two after applying a base coat. I'm mostly a fan of grays, taupes, and golds so this color definitely fits the bill. I know it's such a boring color, or lack of color actually, but I love it :)
