Review: Ulta3 Mojito

Hello again guys,
Today I am doing a review on Ulta3's nail colour Mojito. To start off yes, I have re-used this picture from one of my previous posts, as I honestly don't have the time to go a re-photograph it. I bought this polish at BigW for $2.
First of all the name Mojito, when I bought this nail polish I had sort of guessed that a mojito was a type of drink. I just wasn't sure if it was a cocktail or an everyday beverage. Turns out it is a cocktail that has mint leaves and lime juice in it. I thought that the name was quite clever and I do enjoy saying "Mojito", it sounds so tropical!
There's nothing special about the packaging. It's just a cyllinder bottle, with an easy to hold lid. I am not inlove with the packaging, but it does the job and hey, this polish was only $2.
The colour of Mojito is what drew me to it. In the bottle I was hoping it would be a pastel green, rather than a turquoise-green colour. I was super disappointed, until I actually tried it on. I love that the colour is so loud and in-your-face.
A downside to this nail polish was the formula. It seemed really thick and gluggy in the bottle but then on the first coat, it was sheer! For the above photo I did have 3 coats on, but some were relatively thick. It also took a while to cover the streakiness of this polish. I waited for the first to be entirely dry, before I went on and did the others.
Overall, I did like this polish. The only thing that could have been better, was the formula. I does turn out a little bit darker than the above picture shows, but nothing too different. I also reccommend using a top coat with Mojito as I found it started to chip almost straight after it dried (be sure to wrap the tips with top coat too).
I hope you enjoyed this post,

NOTD #1

Hello again guys,
Today I'm doing my first ever Nails Of The Day! I've seen this done on a tonne of different blogs but all are through out a whole week. I am sorry to say, I could only show you the polish I have worn for the weekend. Hope you enjoy.

This is Pink Friday by OPI, I wore this on Friday night and until Saturday afternoon. My nails are really short because I had to play netball, sorry.

Firstly, yes this is the same photo I used for my "small nail polish haul" swatch. I didn't see the point in going through the hastle of taking another picture of it, again. I am currently wearing this colour on my nails and have been since this afternoon. I don't think I will re-paint my nails until Monday.

Small Nail Polish Haul

So because I haven't posted in awhile, I thought I'd put up 2 posts in a night, lucky you.

Recently, I have bought 3 new polishes; Ulta3's Mojito, Ulta3's Black Satin and BYS' Matte Purple.
I have to say I pretty excited, after trialling these polishes, to wear them more and more.

This is Mojito, a pastel-type green, some might call a turquoise or aqua. i totally fell inlove with this as soon as I found it. I bought it on sale at Big W for only $2!

This is Black Satin, a sleek black colour. Before I say anything else, I found this colour hard to photograph so I had to take a picture from More Nail Polish, I do apologize. I wasn't too excited when I bought this colour, I just knew I needed a plain black colour in my collection- I guess this is it. I also bought this on sale at Big W for $2.

Lastly, this is Matte Purple, an average matte purple. I also had trouble photographing this polish, so I got the brightest lighting on it to see if the colour would show. Unfortunately, this is as good as it got and it is a tiny bit darker than the picture shows. I bought this for $4 at Gloss.

Thanks for reading and let me know if you want me to do a review on a certain product.
