Anywho...
I previously put up a haul/review post on an e.l.f. purchase I made , and I mentioned the 4 piece polish set, but I decided those needed a post of their own! So here we are!
e.l.f. Essential 4-Piece Nail Polish Set includes four orange/pink/coral shades that are definitely IN this season! I bet these would make a killer gradient on the nail, especially the first and third polishes!
Fun names, not as exciting/silly as OPI but at least they're not just numbered.
Brush is standard, not amazing, but good at doing what it's supposed to do. No troubles with strange/bad brushes.
Some skittle swatches. (Say that three times fast, I dare ya!)
All four polishes are cremes and required three coats for full opacity. Flirty Fuchsia is the only one with a visible nail line (in the picture anyway) but in real life, they're all opaque at three.
e.l.f. Coral Dream. Light coral (leaning pink) shade you've seen in a previous picture here. So this picture, I'm sure you're thinking, why the heck is there a line almost in the center of the nail and it turns pink on the other side? I really have no idea. ALL of the pictures of this one did it. I don't remember it looking like that in real life. Sorry guys! No good answer for you! =/
e.l.f. Flirty Fuchsia. Beautiful medium pink, almost a little dusty. Antique pink. Anyway, pretty, good coverage. Flattering color for work or play.
e.l.f. Party Peach. Great bright peach. I'd almost call it more orange than peach, but whatever. Fun color, definitely in season right now.
e.l.f. Smokin Hot. Beautiful deep red-orange. Very classy but enough orange in it to be trendy.
Me Gusta:
- Great price
- Good pigmentation, opaque at two to three coats
- Applied well, good formula
No Me Gusta:
- Chipped in less than one day, even with base and top coat
- Limited color selection overall for e.l.f. polishes
Verdict: Good deal for fun colors at a great price.
You can buy these at e.l.f. where they retail at $5 for 4 polishes (each 10mL or .34oz).
Pretty polishes. Love the Coral Dream!
ReplyDeleteoh I love coral polish! Never tried elf though. Works out a bit dearer with shipping so I just stick with essence :P
ReplyDeleteOh my, I love these all. They are such warm and juicy tones for summer!
ReplyDeleteLove the coral dream polish!
ReplyDeleteCoral Dream is my favourite too. :)
ReplyDeletePretty colors and great price! Congrats on graduation!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors, especially first two!
ReplyDeletecongrats dear :)
ReplyDeletethe fuschia color is really cute~
I would wear every single one of these! Even though the staying power wasn't so great, I'd love to try them out because the colors are just fabulous. I need to get myself to a Target quick!
ReplyDeleteI like Coral Dream. I completely agree with the peach one being more orange.
ReplyDeleteNever liked those ELF polishes. I use their other cosmetics and I have seen some that looked nice online, but I haven't actually run across any myself.
ReplyDeleteThey all sing of summer to me!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite is Coral dream, but it's so sad that they chip that fast :/
ReplyDeleteI have this set also. I love all of the colors, but like you said, they chip fast
ReplyDeleteAnd congrats on graduation!
DeleteI like coral dream :]
ReplyDeleteI need more corals in my life! These are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on Graduating, I didn't know or even think about doing a blog on the nail polish colors I have. What a great way to keep track of the Nail Polishes that we have. Great Idea, and Excellent Job on this blog!
