L’Oreal Chevron

Hello to all my nail friends out there!  Hope you’re having a fantastic weekend!! The weather has been great in New York and I woke up early today to make the most of it!  I went to step aerobics with mom bright and early today, then we did some shopping.  I had an awesome lunch with my boyfriend- quiche Lorraine and salad that I made with almonds and cranberries- so yummy!  Now that the day is winding down I’m going to plant my butt on the couch and watch some American Horror Story.  Anyone out there seen it?  We just started streaming it on netflix yesterday and we’ve almost finished the whole first season!  We also wanna fit in Cabin in the Woods tonite- it’s a scary movie that I’ve been dying to see and it’s finally available on netflix.  Yes, we are horror junkies!!

Now for my nails!  I borrowed these L’Oréal polishes from my mom.  These are some of her faves that she always reaches for:

walk on the beach ♥ a cream/beige

now you sea me ♥ a nice muted sky blue

spice things up ♥ a warm rose colored adobe

greyt expectations ♥ a greyish mauve/ neutral

I love my mom’s taste in nail polish- she goes for creams, especially greens and blues.  I paint her nails every weekend and I’m always using her polish on her and I got the urge to try them on myself.  She says, “all the polish you have and you wanna borrow mine?”.  Yup, precisely!  These shades go great together and I wanted to try them all out together!  So today I hand painted a chevron-type design with all 4 of these L’Oréal nail colors.  They seem to dry pretty fast, but I’ve noticed that even though the formula is kind of thin- they get a little dry and goopy over time.  I’ve already had to put some thinner into her favorite one called Greyt Expectations because application was getting difficult.  Still, I love these polishes… the shades are gorgeous and they’re relatively easy to find in drug stores near me.  Plus, L’Oréal puts out coupons so we can usually get a good deal Woot!  Have you tried any of their nail colors…what do you think?
