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.

Bobbie Harmony Collection Swatches

Hi! I went to the drugstore the other day and I saw a new Bobbie collection. They're one of my favorite local brands and I'm really happy (and impressed) that they keep releasing new shades. Now, these polishes have this new trapezoid-ish shape and they're a little bit pricier at Php 48 each. I was intrigued enough to buy and swatch all of them for you.

Caronia Shades of Summer Collection - First Crush, On the Go and Summer Fling Swatches

Caronia Philippines recently released a collection called Shades of Summer. It has six polishes all of which have been released before so I wasn't planning on buying any but their new polishes are now 3-free so I bought three out of the six shades. I just wanted to see how their new formula differed from their old one. Hihi.

Cutex Mermaid Obsession Collection - Bubble Guppies, Sirens Whisper and Water Nymph Swatches

Hi everyone! I saw this collection a looong time ago at the local department store and I finally bought all three of them. (Yes, I went nuts and spent my food budget on nail polish). This trio can be considered dupes of Deborah Lippmann's The Mermaids. They're pretty expensive compared to the other nail polish found here so I was a little hesitant to buy them. But, I just couldn't resist their gorgeousness.

Tony Moly GR03 and Dearrus Noblesse NM22 Review

Today I will show you two yogurt polishes we (me and my sister) bought. One's from Tony Moly and the other one's from Dearrus. Brief background: yogurt nail polishes (also known as milky glitters) are polishes filled with different colored glitters in different shapes or sizes. As opposed to your glitter top coats which have a clear base, yogurt polishes have a colored base that adds a sort of layered look after two or three coats of application. That's why they've been my favorite ever since I tried my very first one on. And here's a couple more to convince you that this type of polish is the most awesome of them all. lol.
