QT Nail Polishes by Weens - Eight Random Swatches

As a nail blogger, I have resigned myself to the fact that yellow nails will always be an annoying and inevitable part of my life. So, imagine my joy at finding a local (yup, LOCAL) brand that manufactures 5-free nontoxic nail polishes! Woohoo! I currently have around 150 shades combined from their two nail polish lines (QT and Weens) and I'm going to start of with the first eight random shades my hands latched onto.

Hi everyone! If you're seeing this post, it means that either I have no internet connection or my house has no electricity whatsoever. It's been raining nonstop for two days now. If our local weather forecasts are correct, then typhoon Ruby is passing by my province. However, the post show must go on so I will show you my swatches of this gorgeous polish I used in my dark purple speckled nail art.

Kiss Mint 10 mL
Php 31.75 / US$ 0.69

Hi everyone! This will be another quick post about this unique mint polish I saw while browsing through my untried stash. I think I bought this last year at the local drugstore. It was one of those oooohhh-this-looks-good-I-wanna-try-it-oooh-it's-cheap-I'm-gonna-buy-it moments. *face palm*

Hi everyone! A long time ago, I was browsing through the nail polish shelves in the local drugstore when this one caught my eye. I looked closer and saw the contrast between the dark base and the gold shimmer. I bought it immediately. I just knew I'll never find anything like it ever again.

San San Metallic Lilac!...

SAN SAN NAIL POLISH
Metallic Lilac 12 mL
Php 37.00 / US$ 0.85

Hi! This is my first time trying on this local brand. San San can be found in HBC stores nationwide and I really like the fact that their nail polishes are covered in tape. I mean, I can be sure that no one tested it! I hate it when I see people opening nail polishes, trying them on and then putting them back like nothing happened. Sorry, just a major pet peeve of mine that I encountered a while ago. Ugh. Anyway, I currently have three colors in my stash (Metallic Lilac, Perfectly Pink and Tropical Lemon). Of course, I chose to try the purple one first. lol.

CARONIA NAIL POLISH
Moss 8 mL
Php 32.00 / US$ 0.73

Hi! Most of my Caronias dried out... I was trying to reorganize my stash (and shake every polish) when I discovered this sad fact. *sighs* Oh well. I'll try to revive some of them using solvent but they won't be the same anymore. Thankfully, this gorgeous polish survived. Whew~

Skin food Puppy Purple!...

SKIN FOOD NAIL VITA
VI407 / PUPPY PURPLE 13 mL
Php 90 / $2.10

Hi! Just a quick post about this awesome nail polish from one of my nail mails. Puppy Purple is a dark violet (with a hint of burgundy) nail polish that is packed with a ton of purple and red micro-glitters. I only applied two coats on my nails and gosh, I just really love vampy shades like this. I mean, look at that shimmer. *sighs*
(**,)
Anyway, my eyes are closing of their own accord again so I really need to sleep asap again. lol. Good night and I'll see you again tomorrow!

Sassy Persian Blue!...

SASSY COLORS 
NAIL POLISH
PERSIAN BLUE 7 mL
Php 18.00 / $ 0.44



Hi! Just a quick post about this cool duo chrome local nail polish I found. This appears plum in some angles and bluish purple in other angles. It looks so cool, right? I thought it looked similar to Bobbie Parasail but it was a bit darker (cheaper too). 
(^^,)
Anyway, I just spent the whole day driving around and I'm feeling a wee bit stressed out and exhausted (drivers here are sooooo intense). I really need to get a good night's rest so that my brain will be able to function normally tomorrow. Hihi. Good bye now and I'll see you again tomorrow.
(^_^)

Caronia Moss!...

CARONIA NAIL POLISH
MOSS 8 mL
Php 32.00 / $ 0.75

Hi! I found this while waiting for my sister (and wandering aimlessly inside the grocery store). This is one of the nail polishes from Caronia's Miss Mystic collection. I also bought Rouge but Moss just screamed for my attention first.
(^^,)
The name says it all. It's a dusky moss green with a beautiful green shimmer. It reminds me a bit of camouflage clothes (or one of the greens found in them). The formula was also really good. It was self-leveling (not too thin and not too thick) and I experienced no streaks. Yay!
(^_^)
Now, I really love it when local brands release new collections. They're usually so pretty and affordable and I can't wait to see what comes out next. Hihi. Anyway, I need to go and sleep now because I have an early day tomorrow. Good night and I'll see you again soon!

Dazzle Dry Passion Purple!...

DAZZLE DRY NAIL LACQUER
Passion Purple 15 mL
Php 450 / $ 10.80

Hi! I have another Dazzle Dry to show you! Isn't it pretty? lol. I thought I gave all my love to Mythic Teal but Passion Purple stole some of it back. The color's a very deep purple that shimmers whenever the light hits it. The formula was very good (no streaks at all) and of course, I finished applying this manicure in only 5 minutes! Woohoo~
\(^o^)/
Also, Dazzle Dry Philippines opened their online store. Drop by there to experience the wonderful Dazzle Dry nail system just like I did. That's it for now, good night and I'll see you again tomorrow!

Naughty!....


REVLON NAIL ENAMEL
NAUGHTY (aka PERPLEX) 14.7 mL
Php 225 / $ 5.26

Hi! Just a quick post before I go to bed. I was a wee bit sick these past couple of days (still am, actually) and I'm hoping that this unidentified sickness (cough, cold, or fever) will go away soon. *sighs*
(>_<)
Now, I want to show you this awesome nail polish that I secretly bought. Hihi. It's this cool grayish purple with an awesome pinkish purple shimmer. I love it! I also wore it on my toenails for three weeks. I had to remove it because my nails grew (and that part didn't have any nail polish on it so...eeek). lol. 
(^^,)
It took me two coats to achieve this shade and application was very smooth. Woohoo! Anyway, good night for now and see you again tomorrow! (I hope..)
