review: opi nail polish in rosy future AND essie good to go! quick-dry polish

first, off i would like to apologize for not doing any posts in a while... i've been soooo busy with school. i would also like to apologize for the picture coming out so bad - i took it with my blackberry and the color is all wrong - take a look at my description at the bottom to see what the color really looked like.

so, since i totally messed up, i've decided to attempt to redeem myself with a double review! :)

we'll start off with opi nail polish in rosy future.

as i said before, the color is really off in this picture... it looks like a light pink with a bit of iridescent (on my computer at least), but it was nowhere near that. i applied two coats of it without a base and it didn't streak at all which i love. i initially loved the color but when i went out into daylight, i felt like this was way too summery for this time of year. having said that, i will without a doubt be saving this color for the summertime. it was an iridescent barbie-pink and by that i mean that it was not hot pink but it was a very very bright light pink. it's a very cute and fun color after i've been wearing blacks, dark reds, and dark purples all winter.

moving on to the essie good to go! quick-dry nail polish review...

i applied this top coat after i applied the two coats of rosy future. i was really surprised that the bottle was right - it did dry in about 5 minutes, which is perfect for me since i have to touch everything after i get a manicure and end up smudging my nails. however, this chipped really easily - it chipped the next day already and started to peel off when i was in the shower (maybe because of the heat?).

my grades for each? opi in rosy future (for the summertime only!) A+

essie good to go! quick dry polish B (mainly because it peeled and chipped right away)
