Last month I purchased 2 polishes from the Essence Surfer Babe collection. When I got home I started regretting not getting the other two because the packaging was just too darn cute. A few weeks later ventured back to Ulta to get the other 2. I know I'm the only one here who falls victim to cute packaging. I think MAC does a good job of this just at price level that isn't always practical for me :P. I try and avoid looking at MAC collections for this reason. Anyways, thankfully these Essence polishes were only $2, so it didn't put that much of dent in my wallet.
The World's Coolest
Again, with the lobster hands. This is another pastel that doesn't agree with my skin tone. I think it's a little more forgiving than the pink, but still not quite right. The World's Coolest isn't a Tiffany blue nor is it a mint green. It's kind of in between that. Those of you who are familiar with Extra Winterfresh gum the kind that came in the stick form. I'd say it's reminiscent of that color. I'm not even sure if they still make that. I'm so behind in my gum knowledge!
I really love the color of this, but the application wasn't good. This took about 4 coats to achieve and that's only because I started layering it on the thick the 3rd and 4th coat because it looking too sheer after the 2nd. I found the polish very sheer and runny. I'm not sure if I got a bad bottle or if they're all like this. It might just be one of those polishes you need to have more patience with, which I do not have. Oh well, with the exception of the application I really do enjoy this polish and the rest of the Surfer Babe ones.
Back to school tomorrow. It's time to get back to the books. I don't imagine me posting less, since I'm addicted to blogging. I do know I'll probably have to do a lot of writing this semester, so there maybe some postless days, but I think you're pretty much stuck with me. I'm sorry! :P
Happy Sunday!
