Revlon Scented Nailpolish - Gum Drop

Stopped by Walmart the other day with a friend of mine to see if I could find any nailpolish colors that reminded me of spring. I just need to say that I personally loved the Nicole by OPI Justin Bieber collection. The colors are actually pretty! I thought they were a little costly though, at almost $10 a bottle..

Anyways, I ended up buying two Revlon polishes.

These pictures are much better in terms of color accuracy; it's a lot harder to capture true color when a polish is metallic/shimmery.

Scented? Yeah, weird I know. I thought it was strange, but that's not the reason I bought it. I really liked the pastel purple color. It's kind of like a lilac purple. The finish of this polish is more like a creme, there is no shimmer what so ever and it dries to a glossy finish.


However, I had a problem with how sheer this stuff was. Again, I needed at least 3-4 coats of color! Maybe I'm doing it wrong or something...but I'm not completely giving up on this polish because of that. I thought the color was very pretty and unique, and after a couple coats it looks very nice! I don't mind putting the extra time and effort into my nails, but this could be a problem for others.

As for the scented thing? IT ACTUALLY SMELLS GOOD when it dries! My nails smell like marshmallows. Or some form of candy. So, I definitely think this is a good pick when it comes to spring colors.

I paid about $4 or $5 CAD at Walmart for these. You can also find Revlon polishes at your local drugstore.
