Pretty Please Polish Pastel Blue Review

Posted on 06/17/2016 by Amber Rose Posted in Nails, Pretty Please Nail Polish, Product Reviews

Have you ever went nail polish shopping and saw a name like Dusty Rose on a bottle and thought to yourself, I can do better than that! Now you can. Pretty Please Polish can bring you into the world of C-list Celebrity by naming your own nail polish shade.

Over 25 gorgeous shades to choose from in finishes of glitter, matte and satin. You select a shade you love and give it your own unique name. You can name your nail polish for a milestone birthday, bachelorette party, baby shower, fundraiser, brand promotion etc.

I selected Pastel Blue (#23) Pretty Please Polish, it’s a semi-matte soft blue. I named it “Waters Of Lake Minnetonka” … yes I’m still celebrating the life of Prince in anyway I can. Don’t judge me. You know you thought it was clever.

Pretty Please Polish Pastel Blue applies slightly thick but the coverage is opaque. I got full coverage in two coats. The polish dried to a semi-matte finish in about 45 seconds. Without applying a top coat, you will have a satin finish on your nails. I didn’t experience any fading or chipping.

Habit Cosmetics Creature Of The Night Nail Polish

Created by a former fashion industry colorist and Earth-loving beauty addict, Aja Frierson, Habit Cosmetics, is a 5-free Vegan Nail polish that is uniquely made with Myrrh extracts. Myrrh has been used for centuries for it’s anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and anti-fungal properties.

Habit Cosmetics Creature Of The Night Nail Polish

The first shade that caught my eye was Creature Of The Night, a blushing deep purple with an electric blue shimmer.

The look of the bottle caught my eye as well. I’ve always been a lover of bamboo and bamboo packaging so I absolutely love the choice of Habit Cosmetics choosing to use a bamboo overcap on the polish. Not only because it’s chic and well fitted over the glass bottle, but it means less plastic is used in the finished product.

Overview | Creature Of The Night is a very unique, daring shade. Absent of directly light it appears to be satin grape but when light hits the shade you see a beautiful spectrum of magenta, purple and royal blue topped with iridescent shimmer. It has definitely become one of my favorite shades of purple, the first being PRINCE himself 🙂
