It has been a while since I wanted to write another post related to nails, particularly about my favorite cruelty-free nail polishes, but this time in collaboration with another YouTuber/micro-blogger whose name is Sunny Rae Nails, one of my favorite nail tweeters right now, with beautiful long natural nails, who will also share her favorite nail polish brands.
Sunny's social media: Twitter & Youtube.
ME: Wakeup Cosmetics & Flormar.
Wakeup Cosmetics has really beautiful green tones, being my beloved one “Papagalo”, which is a very beautiful bright tropical green. The only fact that I don’t like about this nail polish is that I need three coats for a complete nail cover, even if it is worth it in the end.
By the way, Flormar to me is one of the best low-cost nail polishes, for being long-lasting, not easy to crease, and shiny. I remember discovering this brand thanks to my friend Ana (Nana), who has a severe addiction to nail polish, since then I fell in love with the quality of the nail polishes, becoming a benchmark for me.
Furthermore, Flormar has infinite lines of nail polish, from mattes to gel finish.
SUNNY: Zoya & China Glaze.
One of my favorite polishes that can be purchased at a
certain retailer is Zoya. It has a wide range of options that are not typically
available in-store, including shimmer, glitter, multi-crome, and more! And the
best part of all is that Zoya also passes my weekly test to see how much polish
may chip after a week of wear.
By the way, China Glaze was one of my favorite nail polishes, with so many beautiful colors, it applies extremely well, being available in almost all stores in the United States, which made it convenient to purchase when I lived there.
Both have one of the best high-quality formulas,
colors, and durability I have ever tried, particularly O.P.I, whose shade “Russian
Navy” has stolen my heart, with all those lovely tones mixed into the deep purple,
reflecting in the light.
On the other side, Essie nail polishes feel like a beautiful
vinyl wrap, that gives color and protection to the nail.
With these nail polishes, I only needed one coat to entirely cover the nail, but as always, twice is better!
SUNNY: Live Love Polish (Mooncat) & Holo Taco.
Live Love Polish was my favorite indie brand for years!
I absolutely love the creativity in the colors and nail polish formulas. This
brand has never ever disappointed me by swatching their polishes, but the only
fact that I don’t like is that it does not pass my weekly chipping test:
beautiful but not long-lasting.
By the way, Holo Taco leads the list of favorites,
loved by many not only for its quality but because of the creator: CristineRotenberg (Youtuber). Holo Taco users have already built a trust with Cristine
for the kindness and honesty she shows on her YouTube videos. As a frequent
Holo Taco user, I can say that this is the best nail polish I ever used, why? I
can wear it for over a week, and it will still not have a single chip, turning
it into the best nail polish brand I ever tried, being perfect for nail art
too.
