Review: Ella+Mila Polishes - 5 Free

Ella+Mila polishes draw you towards them for their cute little bottles with the even cuter elephant logo. These polishes are available in the US and my cousin got these for me on a recent trip.

Before I swatch them for you I am just sharing a sneak peak into the colors I have and the cute bottles. And you can read the general review on these polishes.


I have the shades Lilac Luster, Naughty Not Nice, Sunkissed and Ibiza breeze. Ella + Mila polishes 5 free - which means they are safe to use. These polishes are creamy and high gloss polishes. I already wore Sunkissed as the base for the children's day nail art

These polishes are from different collections namely Love, Mommy and Elite.

Review & Swatches: Love Bri Products - Nearly N*ude

Another pretty polish from Love Bri Products, Bri Nearly N*ude

All Love Bri Products polishes are 5 free - yes they are completely safe for regular use.

Nearly N*ude nail polish is a perfect natural shade for office wear or as a base for nail art. I have used this as a base for my crackle polish (see accent nail) where the alcohol in the crackle polish actually created a gradient effect because I applied the crackle while the base polish was still wet. See the last picture for a better view of the gradient crackle effect.

Review & Swatch: Love Bri Products Nail Polish #2 Midnight

A few weeks back I had shared three lovely polishes from Love Bri Products - Lilac, Sweet Pea and Baby Blues (here)

I have another shade from the brand which is a high gloss black called #2 Midnight.

The polish has the same texture and staying power as the other polishes I have already reviewed. What I love about it is that it stays glossy for a long time - mine stayed glossy for 4 days after which I did a touch up and then painted over my Diwali nails that you must have seen on instagram.

Love Bri Products - Sweet Pea, Lilac & Baby Blues Review and Swatches

Brianne from the Love Bri Products recently sent me a few polishes to try out. My first reaction - the bottles are so chic! And then I opened one of the polishes and loved the fragrance that reached my nose!

Today I will review the polishes along with their swatches. If you follow me on facebook then you must have seen a teaser in the Ruffle Nails nail art pic I had shared for the STNChallenges.

The Love Bri Products polishes are 5 free (free of the five known toxic ingredients in a lot of polishes) and apart from the wonderful smooth texture, they are fragrant. Yes these have a very light fragrance that just makes applying polish a pleasure!

Lets see the individual shades a bit close up. The first one on the list is Sweet Pea. This is a bright pink polish. Two strokes for a streak free opaque finish.

Lilac, as the name suggests, is a light purple polish - again a streak free opaque finish in two coats.

El Corazon Matte Effect N116 - Review, Swatches & Negative Space Nail Art

A gorgeous matte polish from El Corazon Matte Effects N116. I cannot find the name of this polish although I am sure it does have a proper name too.

 The polish goes on streak free in two coats. I did a simple negative space striping nail art using the polish. I think this is a perfect office wear polish and something you can wear with almost any outfit.

Do you like this pink? I adore the polish bottle too. I will show you all my polish storage in a few days (needs a bit of clean up)
