SUMMER MONTHS MEAN BRIGHT COLORS

BRIGHT COLORS
SANDY BEACHES
HOT AS HELL


       My daily thoughts during the summer months, aside from the general lack of panic and anxiety that accompanies me when I am actually working.

      What's on my nails today is a combination of Jessie J's Santorini from their SO FUN AND AWESOME Cruise collection line and the Mayebelline Bleached Neon's collection's Lime Accent.   The Jessie's Girl polish, Santorini has a very slight iridescence to it that is apparent in the bottle, but not on my way fancy camera or my really clean nails.  It looks more like a deeper blue than the traditional light creamy blue I have been rocking at work these past few weeks. I really like it now that I sort of (HA) have a tan. Lime accent is also a wonderful, creamy polish that pops and does not need a white base underneath to stand out. To be fair, neither does Santorini, but I wouldn't call Santorini a Neon by any means. Lime accent has a kind of streaky application so you'll need to be careful with your strokes, make sure they are light and balanced.



     If you cannot find this polish because it's on the rare side- Sephora makes a dupe of this polish called Over The Top, it was apart of their spring line, and can still be found in stores but is sold out online because it was on sale for 5$. The Sephora brand does not streak as badly as the Maybelline, so if you like the color and want a bette formula, I would go with that.
