The White Post
I was recently watching a discussion about the best white polish. This inspired me to dig out all the whites I could find in my collection. Turns out I have TEN. Oops.
Wasn't sure the best way to go about this, so I've split it into two. Five polishes for each set. Just seemed to be the easiest way and eliminated a VERY pic heavy post.
Each nail has two coats of polish and no top coat. Since most of us use white as a base or for nail art I wanted to show it the way we want to use it. (No one wants to use four coats of white under something and then keep going with their manicure.)
First set:
Thumb - Julep Kate, Index - China Glaze White On White, Middle - Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear White On, Ring - Cult Nails Tempest, Pinky - OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls.
Yes, opi my boyfriend scales walls is very slightly tinted grey. I thought I would include it because a lot of people use it. And it does look more white then grey. You'll see in the pics.
Second Set:
Thumb - OPI Alpine Snow Matte, Index - Essie Blanc, Middle - Sinful Colors Snow Me, Ring - Barielle Enduring, Pinky - Quo By Orly French White.
Enduring and French White seem to have a bit of a dirty white look to them.
I'm not going to critique all of them. We'd be here all day. I'll just go with my top three!
1. Cult Nails Tempest. It's almost a one coater. Would be if you have shorter nails. It's also a little thicker and great for nail art.
2. Sally Hansen White On. Again very close to a one coater. Cheap too!
3. OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls. It's just very versatile.
What are your thoughts on white? Do you have a favourite that wasn't included?
Thanks for looking and I hope some of you find this helpful!

Candy Lacquer Valentines polish
I apologize for not posting in a bit. But I'm back with Valentine's polish from Candy Lacquer, so I hope that makes up for my absence!
Warning: This post is pic heavy. They were so pretty I couldn't help it!
Up first is Vintage Valentine. Applies very nicely even though the base is a bit thick. No digging for glitter needed, even the bigger hearts. I have 2 coats of Vintage Valentine over Butter London Fiver. Close up shows 2 coats of Vintage Valentine over a clear base so you can see all the individual glitter. Contains various size and shape glitter in white, red, black, and aqua. Click pics to enlarge.
Next is Love Rocks. The clear base in this one has a bit thinner formula then Vintage Valentine. Again, applied easily and no need to fish for bigger glitters. Shown is 2 coats of Love Rocks over Essie Play Date. Close up is 2 coats over a clear base. Various size and shape glitter in white, black, purple, and silver.
Last up is Love-ly Lavender. Once again, no issues with application. 2 coats over Sinful Colors Cinderella. Close up is 2 coats over a clear base. Various size and shape glitter in lavender, periwinkle, holo, and purple.
I really liked all 3 of these. The most difficult part of these polishes was deciding what to layer them over. Took me a while to make up my mind. Candy Lacquers can be purchased HERE.
Hope you enjoyed today's post. And Happy Valentine's Day to you all!
