This weeks manicure is a mix of polish and Jamberry! I think Jams are going to become a staple in my polish looks. My experience with them has been great and I can see using them all the time. For this nail look I will be reviewing a Jam sample, a nail polish I got in an Ipsy bag, and a nail polish I got for free.
My Jams from last week could have lasted a few more days but I was really itching to change things up so I took them off. I had a watercolor flower patterned Jam I really wanted to try out so I paired it with a hot pink and mint colored polish.
The Jam is Faded Bouquet and while I think its a cool design I'm not sure I'd buy it. I was a bit sad that with the sample I got the pink flower was in the middle of the strip, meaning it didn't make it onto my nail. that was supposed to help tie in the hot pink a bit. The nail on my other hand doesn't have any pink showing at all. Oh well. At least I don't have to worry about it chipping for the next week or so.
The pink polish I got in my April Ipsy glam bag and it was my absolute favorite product that month! I really like this nail polish. I almost didn't even need two coats it goes on so opaque. The formula is also not too thick and not too thin. Its a really nice polish overall. Its by Julie G, a branch of Jesse's Girl cosmetics, and the color is Damsel.
The mint color is by Wet n Wild from their Spoiled collection. The color is Mar-zi-panna. My opinion of this one is the opposite, I really don't like it. The formula is thick and more gel like which I hate in a nail polish. It was difficult to apply neatly as the brush is huge. It also took forever to dry....the pink was good so I started doing things and ended up botching up my pinky because even though the pink was dry...the mint wasn't :/
They definitely make a statement but in a cute and spring themed way!
Overall, I think this mani is adorable and perfect for spring!
