Hello my dears!

I borrowed the photos from her and I’m really excited about the swatches from the Too Faced Summer 2012 Eye Palette.

Essie Tour de Finance Polish from Navigate Her Spring 2012 Collection – Review, Photos & Nail Swatches

Published on March 9, 2012 in Beauty. 7 Comments Tags: chic review, Essie, nail polish, nail polish review.

Hello my lovelies!

Today I’m going to review Essie Tour de Finance Nail Polish which is one six colors included in Essie Navigate Her Collection for Spring 2012 (my post with info, photos & prices). This collection has be launched in U.S. on February 2012 (@essie.com – $8.00) and also in Romania on 1 March 2012 (@essie.ro and @fendissimadistribution.ro).

My Romanian visitors can order any color from this collection online for the price of 44.50 Lei. Each Essie nail polish bottle includes 13.5 ml (.5 fl oz) of product.

Essie Tour de Finance nail polish is described as a incandescent fuchsia but actually seems more like a fuchsia with light blue and pink shimmer. It has a creamy texture but thicker than Essie No More Film polish (review + swatches). What seems strange to me was that I find the application to be a little bit harder over a base coat than on simply clean nail. What I mean is that I couldn’t apply the first layer evenly and flawlessly so I needed to add a second coat.

The color is really nice, just the bright pink fuchsia you need for spring and it’s opaque from the first layer. It has a luscious finish and its fine shimmering particles makes the color pop, especially into sunny light. The texture is creamy but a little bit thicker so I decided not to apply a top coat this time. It took quite a few minutes to dry, but even so, after I my nails touched my clothes a small part of polish was peeled off. On my right hand’s nails I applied only one coat of Essie Tour de Finance without base or top coat.

Check out more photos and find out how this color looks after 4 days of wearing it, right after the cut. Continue reading ‘Essie Tour de Finance Polish from Navigate Her Spring 2012 Collection – Review, Photos & Nail Swatches’

Anna Sui Upcoming Summer 2012 Makeup & Cosmetic Products – Preview

Hi everyone!

Anna Sui already launched two new collections for Spring 2012 and a limited edition line with eyes & face palettes as well as lip balm & lip gloss kits. I have previously posted about Magic Rose Fairy Spring 2012 Collection and Base Makeup Spring 2012 Collection so if you’ve missed those posts please check them out since the products are extremely cute.

In the upcoming months Anna Sui will launch new products. I don’t know if these products will be part of the summer 2012 collection or just released separately. Judging by the late launching dates for spring and the products’ names they could definitely form a summer collection.

Availability

In Japan they are expected earlier than U.S. or Canada where the launching dates are May 2012 for Beach 2012 products and 26 April 2012 for the Makeup Remover Pen. Balancing Lotion and Cleanser should be available sometimes in April 2012.
