Street Wear Color Rich Nail Enamel–Silver Sparkles - Review

I would have shrieked at the thought of painting my nails silver but when I tried the Silver Sparkles from Street Wear it was love at first sight.

The soft fairy like silver nail paint looks so pretty on the nails. A single coat is good for day wear and you can give it two coats to make it more daring.

The above swatch is of a single coat on my nails. Silver sparkles is very good if you wish to use it for free hand nail art. But again it won’t work for stamping.

Details at a glance
Packaging: glass bottle
Pigmentation: single coat is good for day wear, 2 coats gives the true bright silver color
Fragrance: none
Price: Rs 50 (5 ml)

What I like
  • love the ‘fairy’ like silver effect with a single coat
  • good staying power
  • good quantity for the price

What I don’t like
  • nothing!

Street Wear Glazed Green - Review

Soft pale pistachio green with shimmer – elegant shiny nails is what you get with Street Wear Glazed Green nail paint.

Glazed green is suitable for day and night wear and will suite all skin tones. On darker skinned beauties it will appear more silver than green. The nail paint is long staying if you wear a top coat else it will start to fade off the edges in 3 days. The nail paint does not chip off so that is a plus point.

Violet Bag Haul!

Recently I hauled from one of my favorite online shopping websites – violetbag.com

The website has a huge array of products but the reason its my favorite is that whenever I have been short on time they have delivered on time – once I even had to leave for an outstation trip and my products reached me within 2 days to make sure I had the necessary items before I left. I was extremely happy with their service.

Before I show pictures of my haul let me show you the interface this website has.

The first page has a display of their latest offers and a short glimpse into their array of products. At the top of the page there is a menu which allows you to chose which product area you want to browse to.
