Essie Ready to Boa nail polish is the prettiest burgundy hue I have ever seen! There is a slight sparkle in the polish, and the color is not too light, and not too dark; it is pure perfection! I need to fling a boa over my shoulder, and I need to display the “Ole!” emoticon to fully convey how fabulous this color is!

I tend to shy away from red nail polish colors, but this burgundy hue is so pretty; I want to wear it forever! It is so festive and perfect for the holiday season; plus it is a classic, wintry color which is great for the entire cold weather season. Love!

Ready to Boa by Essie is from Essie’s winter collection which consists of six colors perfect for the season. Essie Ready to Boa nail polish is a great, classic hue which can be worn right now, as well as next year during the fall and winter seasons. It is a great nail polish wardrobe staple. Love that!

For testing purposes, I wore Essie Ready to Boa nail polish with one base coat, and two coats of color. I did not use a top coat. The polish lasted a full week with one chip on my right hand; I think the chip happened when I was cleaning the kitchen without wearing my gloves. It was a small chip, so it didn’t bother me.

Essie Ready to Boa is a beautiful burgundy nail polish. You can find it online here. If you have a nail polish fan on your holiday shopping list, check out this cute box set of Essie’s winter collection online here.

Thanks for stopping by!

Diorific Golden nail polish holidays 2016 review

I am hooked on Diorific nail polish! Golden by Dior from the Diorific nail polish collection, is a limited edition, sparkling gold nail color perfect for celebrating the holiday season.

Diorific Golden nail polish is a soft, sparkling gold color which is easy to wear with any color metal jewelry. The gold is a soft hue which blends well with silver, rose gold, and of course, yellow gold metals. This makes Golden by Dior perfect to wear not only during the holiday season, but throughout the winter season, and into spring; where metallic hues are an important fashion trend.

Dior nail polish is long lasting, and applies evenly. I tested Diorific Golden nail polish out with one base coat, and two coats of color. I ran out of my top coat, so no top coat! Without the top coat, Diorific Golden lasted a full week without chipping! My nails grew, which is why I took off the polish. Love that!

The holiday nail polish collection by Dior is flying off the shelves, and it is limited edition. If you love this color, you can find Diorific Golden nail polish in stock online here, and online here.

Happy holidays, and stay sparkly 😉
