China Glaze Passion Review

I saw this color on a model in a Christmas themed Sephora catalog. Im not usually a gold person when it coems to jewelery, nail polishes, clothes and things of that sort. But when it comes to makeup, with my skin tones and eye color, gold is definitely the way to go.

This is China Glaze Nail Lacquer with Hardeners color Passion number 685. Now usually when you get a color that says Nail Lacquer it applies matte and dries pretty fast. This color actually takes a little time to dry, but dries shiny and doesnt need a top coat (I use one anyway to make the color last longer). Because the skin on my hands is fairly pale with pink undertones, the gold color actually looks pretty faint on my skin, but shines amazing.

Ive had the color on for 9 days with my Sally Hansen Celeb City. (See Review Below). I love the shine and little sparkle this color has. I would definitely recommend this color, for certain things. It doesnt really look good for everyday use. I would use it if I have a special event to go to, or I have a photo shoot that this color would look good in or even for a prom or dance.

China Glaze is an amazing brand and I Love their Nail Lacquer colors, but this color I personally wouldnt wear for everyday use.

Revlon Shape N Buff Review

My friend traci is amazing at finding deals, we were at CVS one day and she had this weird Extreme Couponing deal for Revlon stuff and ended up getting three things for free after buying one and then got money back on that and bought more makeup.

I had never used this prior to that day, but I love Revlon and nail buffers so I grabbed it up and decided to try it. Honestly, its ok. Not anything special, its just a cheap nail buffer. It doesnt shape or sculpt, it just buffs.

It has six sides, but honestly all but two of them do the same thing. It doesnt make your nails extraordinarily shiny or anything at all really. Its kind of a waste of time using it in the first place. Its cheaply made and doesnt last very long. Ive used mine twice and its already wearing down on the sides.

I have used other Revlon nail products and do like them, however I do not like this and definitely do not recommend it. If youre looking for an amazing nail buffer go to Sephora. The Sephora brand 4 sided nail buffer is amazing. Its the one I use in my manicure / Pedicure kit and I personally use it on myself.
