Morgan Taylor - Swatches & Review

I haven't shared any Morgan Taylor polishes with you for a couple of weeks, so today you get to see six more lovely shades.

All swatches shown with two coats of color and topcoat

Water Baby

Water Baby is a lovely pastel blue shade which had full coverage in two coats. This would be perfect for a base for nail art or a pastel springy look.

Mint Chocolate Chip

Mint Chocolate Chip is definitely a light mint cream polish. It was fully opaque in two coats and had nice application. Mint is still very on trend right now so I could see myself potentially wearing this to work sometime.

Supreme In Green

If you're looking for the perfect light grass green shade, then Supreme In Green is for you. SIG was slightly streaky in one coat but had a nice self leveling formula in two coats.

Lost in Paradise

Lost is Paradise is such a gorgeous color! This picture is lightening it up slightly but it's just barely a little darker than shown. Silly Camera. Great formula as well.

Gotta Have Hue

I love polish names that are plays on words. But this is also a really pretty shade, it is the most sheer of the six shades that I'm sharing today but was still completely opaque in two coats.

West Coast Cool

Who doesn't love a good blue cream polish for summer! This shade was also slightly darker in person, but still super gorgeous in person. If you're a blue person, you're definitely going to need to add this to your collection and it's nothing like the other shades I have and may also fill a "blue gap" for you too.

So what did you think about these shades? Too cool for school? I thought so too :)

The Nail Challenge Collaborative Presents - Black & White - Week 1

Welcome to June! I seriously cannot believe that we are already into June. It's good because my Anniversary and Birthday are in June, but it's crazy how fast the year is flying by!

The June theme for the Nail Challenge Collaborative in Black & White; I voted for this theme so am excited to get some looks together. Today my look is Black & White and Neon & On & On. LOL.

Polishes Used:
-China Glaze - Neon & On & On
-Konad - White
-Konad - Black

For this look, I started in probably the most opposite way of having the China Glaze down first. Once that was dry I added the white half; which I really love because I used striping tape and got a nice crisp line. Unfortunately, I free-handed the black because I was impatient and didn't want to wait for the white to dry, you can definitely tell that I freehanded it because it just doesn't look clean. My bad for sure on that one. I also got a little impatient with the topcoat and you can see the result of that on my ring finger. Womp Womp.

Overall, I like this look, but would have loved it if I would have taken the time to properly execute.
