San San Nail Polish In Violet Gleam Swatch & Review

Hello guys! It's February, the month of love! So it's somehow a good time to pamper by giving yourselves good manis and pedis especially if you are supposed to be going out with someone haha ya know what I mean! But that's not the reason why I changed my nail polish today since I don't have this someone right now to go out with.

It's been two weeks, I think, since I last had my diy manicure because I'm doing this National Museum campaign for my midterm in Public Relations so I really had minimal time for myself the past week. Ugh! We just presented last Saturday, thank God my team's already finished!

So anyway, for today, I painted my nails using San San Nail Polish in Violet Gleam!

What I used for my manicure today: L-R: Caronia Nail Hardener & Base Coat for 49php, San San Nail Polish in Violet Gleam for 37php, Chic Two-Way Nail Art in Ivory for 33php, Caronia Fast-Dry Top Coat for 49php, and Caronia Kwik-Dry & Cuticle Conditioner for 49php
If you read my previous posts, you'll know that I love purple shades! And that's what pushed me to buy this color instantly as I see it on HBC shop near our house!



The bottle's so cute, right? I actually love the metallic silver thingy on the handle of the bottle. And it doesn't look cheap though I bought it for less than a dollar! Can you believe it!?


And the color payoff is really amazing! I used two coats for my polish and it dries with instant glossy look you need not to use a top coat!! One coat will do actually but I added another for longer color life.


Notice that I designed my accent finger a somehow leopard look. This has been my first time to design my ring finger like this so bare with me if it looks not like those professionally applied leopard nail arts. And sorry for the blurred picture. I used a low-pixel-led phone cam for this. :(


More photos!!! I'm sorry I just love the packaging and color of San San Nail Polishes that I have at least 20 colors on my stash now!


If you can just see the ingredients, you'll know that it's Toxic-Trio free meaning that it is safe for our health! And they dry fast enough as well!


I'm not yet satisfied with my mani so I put on extra matte top coat to achieve this awesome look since I noticed that little bubbles appeared upon drying the polish so I added this! Though San San Nail Polish in Violet Gleam created bubbles, the matte top coat perfectly hid them!



So that's it! Like the color? Leave a comment if you had the same experience with San San Nail Polish! Happy blogging! xx

Love, Hanna

Chic Nail Polish in Honeydew Green Review

I am so loving my current nail polish, just sharing! LOL. It makes my nails look so yummy as it looks like legit Honeydew. They also remind me of those pears my mom loves to buy every new year.

What I love about the Chic Nail Polish is that they have a variety of shades in which you could choose from. I actually wanted to buy every single one of them since they really do have an amazing shade selection! I do not have any problem with the brush/applicator since it doesn't create streaks. But yeah, remember that applying nail polish requires a bit of skill too. Practice makes perfect, right?

It is also free from the toxic trio (Toluene, Formaldehyde and Dibutyl Phthalate.) Moreover, Chic Nail Polishes are almost available in any drugstores and retail stores nationwide. One bottle costs as low as PHP33!

There's just two things I don't like about this nail polish: the formula tends to become thick easily and could create those annoying bubbles. Best to reapply in thin layers. I already used three bottles from the same brand and they are pretty much the same.
