Cuba Nails

Hello all!

I am just getting home from my trip to Cuba this past week and wanted to share some new colours I picked up before and wore on my trip.


The first one is Essie Turquoise & Caicos. This is not a new colour, I actually picked it up back in the summer, but I thought it would match the scenery in Cuba. I sure was right! My first swim in the ocean and my nails matched the water perfectly! It is a beautiful green-blue with a jelly like base.


I really like this colour, there is only one downside. It takes at least 3 coats to even out, and I usually have to do 4.

I then decided to add some gold glitter to the tips when I got a chip a few days later. I used China Glaze Blonde Bombshell, a new glitter I picked up a few weeks ago.


Here is Blonde Bombshell on it's own, 2 layers.


Great gold glitter, small and medium sized glitters in it. I know I will be using this polish a lot!

The next colour I wore was Nails by Top Shop in War Paint. This was my first experience with Top Shop nail polish and I was impressed. It went on nice and smooth and covered in 2 coats. This colour is a nice coral, perfect for my toes all week as well.


My last colour of the week was butter London in Snog. I couldn't resist buying this polish when I went into Holt Renfrew last week. The name it's self is super cute, and the colour is such a nice bright pink! The formula is great, as I expected from butter London. Smooth and covered in 2 coats.


So there you have it, all of my vacation nails. The trip was great, so happy to be able to take some time off and spend it with my family. Lots of swimming, tanning and of course, eating!

Til next time!
