Sinful Colors Hazard


I haven't done a review in what seems like forever. Sorry :P
So this is Sinful Colors's Hazard polish. It's sort of a pinky coral type color. I thought it was a pretty color and girly too. I love Sinful Colors nail polish because it is so cheap and most of the time last a good while. This one lasted a decent amount of time. I'd say about 2 or 3 days and it started to chip. Definitely not as long as some of the Essie, China Glaze, or OPI nail polishes I have tried, but what do you expect for $1.99? I thought it did a pretty good job when it came to quality and longevity when it came to how much it cost.
Overall: I would say this was a good color to use. I loved the color and the quality was satisfactory.

China Glaze Peachy Keen


This is the final nail polish that I ordered in the mail recently. I have to say for the most part I was disappointed with this polish. I ordered this color not thinking about how it already looks close to the color of Essie's Tart Deco, which I already own. I have to say this color looks just like it minus that Tart Deco has a slightly more pink tone to it. 
The second thing that upset me was that this was very streaky. I put on two coats and it was still streaky. I would have put on three coats but I didn't have enough time. That was a downside to this also.
The Third thing that upset me was the size of the brush. I don't know if I just got a bad batch or something and the brushes were made slightly larger, but it did not make for an easy application. I have other China Glaze nail polishes and none of them have a brush that was this thick. Also the formula was a little thick as well which also made it more of a challenge to apply.
Overall: I would not recommend this and I would say it's not worth the money. If you're looking for something of similar color that is a better quality I would have to direct you to Essie's Tart Deco.

OPI Meet Me On the Star Ferry


This is my second OPI nail polish I have ever bought and I have to say I love this one a lot more than I love the first OPI polish I bought, Yodel Me On My Cell. For one, this polish didn't fade off at the tips after one day like Yodel Me On My Cell did. I was highly pleased with the application process too. It was very easy to apply, dried fairly quickly, and I didn't have any problems with streaking. 
I bought this at a local salon for half off since I bought the other OPI polish too. (They were buy one get on half off). I probably paid about $4.25 for it. Which I consider a good deal for an OPI nail polish even though I had to buy one at full price first. 
This color reminds me of a shimmery darker mauve? I am not exactly sure about how to describe this color. My mom described it as brown, but it's not exactly brown either. It does have a slight brown hue to it though. I'd say it's about a mix of some purple and brown, but in a pretty way.
Overall: I recommend getting this polish if this color is your style. It applied great and dried pretty quickly. I was way more satisfied with this OPI polish as compared to the other one I bought (Yodel Me On My Cell).
