Today I have for you my First. Yellow. Nail. Polish. Ever. And I really like it. :)
Yellow seems like a very tough color to pull off, nail-wise, and so I balked a bit before taking the yellow plunge. hehe. But this color plunge definately paid off. Just look at that beautiful yellow! It's another Piggy Polish, this time called Dog Daisies of Summer, and another super cool 'floaty' color. (now that name, I don't like. Dog Daisies of Summer? Duuuumb.)
From what I've read on other nail blogs, yellows are generally streaky and a general PITA to apply. But this was pure gorgeousness. I used 3 coats in the above picture, and while you can still see VNL (Visible Nail Line), somehow I don't mind. Normally, I hate VNL with a passion. Maybe I'm sick? Or maybe I just really like DDoS. :)
Like Lily's Pad, this color seems to glow. I'm likening it to sunshine through lemondrops. Make any sense at all? It makes sense to me. haha!
So, in summary, beautiful color, beautiful application, sunshine through lemondrops.

My first foray into Piggy Polish territory, and the fabulous green that came of it.

O, HELLO! Look at that green! It positively glows. My fingers look as though they are tipped in green fire. :)
Here is my first Piggy Polish buy. I can't decide if the name "Piggy Polish" is endearingly cute or annoying. haha. Either way, I love this polish. It is from PP's Spring collection and it is called Lily's Pad.
The cool thing about this formula is that it looks, and applies, almost floaty-like. I don't know what else to call it. Floaty is all I can think of. :P The floatiness makes it pretty sheer, this is 4 coats. But lovely coats they were, smooth and almost no clean-up. The finish ended up being frosty. At least I think that that's what it is. Sometimes I get confused about my finishes. Eek, what kind of pitiful nail blogger am I?!
You guys, I had something else to say, something that was no doubt very important to this review, but I am blanking. I'm so sorry, but I'm having a blonde moment. Nooo! ;) You'll just have to be content with the knowledge that this is an amazing polish and I love it very much.
Till next time, lovely ladies, adieu.
p.s. You can buy Piggy Polish at Ulta stores. Right now they are having a Buy 2 Get 1 Free sale! :)
