Deborah Lippmann :: Rockin' Robin

Rockin' Robin is a light pastel blue cream with small black glitter particles that resembles a robin's egg or a speckled egg. This color was opaque in two coats, and has great staying power (as do the other DL polishes I have tried). It lasted days without chipping, which is something I can't say too often!!! This is the perfect spring color (which I say in a lot of my nail posts haha) if you're looking for something easy and on-trend!!!

Polishes like this have been huge for the spring and summer (see Spring Beauty Trends post). This polish retails for $19 (steep! I know!) and can be found at higher end department stores such as Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, and Bloomingdales. If you are willing to overlook the price tag, this is a truely amazing polish that I wholeheartedly recommend!!!

Benefit Ultra Plush Gloss :: Dandelion

Hello there!!! I'm very excited about today's post to say the least!!! Today I'm talking about Benefit's Ultra Plush Lip Gloss in the color Dandelion. Months ago, Benefit released a lip gloss collection to match their cult favorite boxed powders. I've wanted to get my hands on them ever since and I just recently picked up my first one!!!

Dandelion is a light, warm pink with a gold shimmer. It is very sheer and only provides a light wash of color on the lips. Its the perfect product to apply on the go, when you can't always stop and look in a mirror. Some people may not like this for the sheerness, but I think its the perfect wash of shine that still natural but "done." It's very natural and will work over any lip product (or on it's own!!!).

Because it's rather sheer and shiny, it was hard to adequately photograph!!! Sorry!!! I did the best I could!!!

Another major plus? This is THE SOFTEST AND SMOOTHEST gloss I have ever owned!!! There is zero-stickiness. Zero. Like, Nothing. At. All. It's also moisturizing, which is really something that I have never been able to say about a lip gloss. I put it on rather dry lips and they actually felt better after this wore off!!! Since its so smooth, it doesn't have to longest lasting power, but most lip products don't last very long on me anyways. The only downside? It smells like cantaloupes to me, which is not my favorite scent. Some people might like that and some might hate it, but I personally have learned to get over it because this is still one of my favorite lip products!!!

All in all, for $16 this is one of the best lip products I have ever bought. I love how smooth, soft, and sheer this is, the perfect no-fuss lip gloss. You can find it at Sephora, Benefit counters and stores, or wherever else Benefit is sold!!!

Essie :: Tart Deco

Hello there!!! Today's NOTD is yet another from Essie: Tart Deco!!!

This color screams spring, as it is a creamsicle orange-peach with a cream finish!!! The wear time is great, lasting several days chip free and the color is vibrant, needing only two coats!!!

I found this at the drugstore for $8 and can also be found wherever else Essie is sold (Ulta, etc.). Well this is probably my shortest post to-date, very clear-cut and precise!!! Hope you have a great spring!!!
