Manicure Monday: OPI Princesses Rule!

Happy Monday Darlings! Today's Manicure Monday is a super special one, OPI's "Princesses Rule". If you follow me on my main (DafyneMeBella) or vlog (VlogsWithLinda) You Tube channel you would already know that I announced the gender of our baby! IT'S A GIRL!!! My husband Allan & I are super happy and cannot wait to meet our beautiful baby girl. 

I thought this polish would only be appropriate. Let's check it out below!

"Princesses Rule" is a absolutely gorgeous sheer baby pink shimmer shade. The shimmers are silver, which almost makes it look like it has a foil finish.  It's a very flattering "healthy" looking pink- brightens your skin! OPI makes the best sheer crystal polishes in my opinion. It applies so smoothly & easily. What I love most about this polish is that it is very versatile. If you prefer a more subtle look, 1 coat gets you a sheer, clear with a hint of light pink shimmer to your nails. I applied 2 coats for my nails but if you want a more dramatic shimmer nails with the fullest opacity, definitely apply 3. Another reason why I love this polish so much is it has a quick drying time, yay!

Out in the sun my nails look so pretty & sparkly! Definitely made for a princess & I can't stop staring at it. My baby girl is going to be my little princess and I couldn't think of a better polish than OPI's Princesses Rule to go with my very special announcement!

Thank you so much for reading & for being on this amazing journey with me. Love you all so much!! Mmuah.

Love, Linda

Manicure Monday: OPI Malaga Wine

Happy Monday Loves! I hope you had a restful weekend. Today's Mani Monday is OPI's "Malaga Wine".

This creme polish is a gorgeous deep wine red. It applied smoothly & 2 coats is all you need for full opacity!

Malaga Wine would look beautiful on any skin tone & I think it would look great on the toes as well. It has a glossy finish and is the perfect red for any holiday party. If you are looking for a rich red polish, I highly recommend this one! You will LOVE it.

As always, thank you so much for reading. Wishing you a wonderful holiday season!!

Manicure Monday: OPI Haven't The Foggiest

Happy Monday Darlings! OPI's "Haven't The Foggiest" is today's Mani Monday. Let's take a look below!

I've never tried anything like this polish before & I love it! Haven't The Foggiest is a shimmery metallic deep grey shade. 

I applied 2 coats & I was so surprised at how easy this polish was to apply. The pigmentation of this shimmery polish is really amazing! You definitely have to apply it with a light hand because it is very easy to see the brush strokes on your nails with this polish.

What makes me love this polish even more is it's quick drying time.

Thank you so much for reading my loves! Have a fantastic week ahead.

Love, Linda

Rimmel Wonder'Lash Mascara Review

Hi Loves! I was pleasantly surprised when I saw that Rimmel had came out with their new "Wonder' Lash Mascara" because it has argan oil in it! It's not everyday that you see a drugstore mascara like that. Being the mascara lover that I am, I had to pick this up! I got mine for $8.49 CAD at my local Superstore.

Here are some pics with all the claims of this mascara!

The packaging is a shiny copper/bronze geometrical tube. Very nice, simple yet eye catching!

The brush is one of those flexible ones with short plastic bristles at the edges & longer ones in the center. I did find it a bit difficult to really grab the inner & outer lashes with the large brush/minimal bristles at the tip. Formula of this mascara is a dry one but more towards the wet/dry side of the scale. There is a very organic smell to this mascara because of the argan oil in it!

So what do I think of this Rimmel's New Wonder'Lash Mascara?? I think it is an okay mascara, I say pass on it if you see it in the drugstores. 

This mascara left my lashes looking super soft & natural with just the slightest length added to it. It did a good job at separating my lashes as well but added no volume. Since this is the non waterproof version, it did wilt my lashes down the moment I applied the 2nd coat. Also, there were no clumps in sight- even at 3 coats of mascara. It did not flake on me all day but it did smudge a bit on my lower eyes. When I felt my lashes after applying, they really did feel feathery soft! When it was time to take this mascara off, it came off effortlessly with just a bit of warm water or some eye make up remover.

For my wimpy, lashes I need more drama in a mascara & this one did not deliver. I like my lashes to have more volume, hold it's curl (although this mascara was the non waterproof version) and overall look more dramatic.

If you are looking for a mascara that gives a super natural look to your lashes than this mascara is probably for you but for me it just wasn't one that I was happy about.

I hope this review was helpful to you & thank you so much for reading!

Manicure Monday: OPI Alpine Snow

Happy Monday! Since there is snow right outside my window right now, I thought this polish would be only appropriate! Let's check out "Alpine Snow" by OPI down below.

I absolutely love creme polishes & this one is just that! Alpine snow is a crisp, white creme polish & I applied 1 thin coat first & than a thicker 2nd coat to even it out.

I love white polishes on my nails because it makes it look super clean & refreshing!

Thank you so much for reading & I hope you have a great week ahead. Stay warm!!
