Hey, Marvellous!
Today, I’m gonna be sharing with you this nail polish coined as THE FACE SHOP LOVELY ME: EX PAINT NAILS in RD303. (That's mouthful!)
The inspiration for this polish is the reddish-orange nail polish worn by Zooey Deschanel in the episode 19 of her sitcom New Girl Season 2. I keep looking at her reddish-orange nails while watching the show so I said to myself I must get me an orange-red nail polish.
It looks a bit like bloody red nails in this snapshot, but it is more of deeper orange in the entire show. |
I know, I know, nail polish again. Well, I am definitely at nail polish phase, wherein painting nails is therapeutic and inhaling nail polish fume is nothing but smelling scent of aroma. I just love nail polishes, obsessed even.
That is why I am always on the hunt for a good nail polish that has a lasting power so I won't waste all my time and effort in painting my nails.
However, I am also a bit stingy when it comes to nail polish because I know that nail polish is not a basic commodity to spend too much money on.
That is why I love The Face Shop Nail Polishes because it is an affordable nail polish that can last on my nails for days. RD 303 stayed on my nails for days.
This is a morning shot. It is coming out a bit like a carrot orange in this photo but it is deeper in person. |
THE FACE SHOP LOVELY ME: EX PAINT NAILS in RD303 is your perfect deep orange nail polish leaning on the red side, thus the name RD, which is short for RED. Some oranges may look tacky on my tan skin but not this one. The color is just adorable.
It has a bit of neon depending on where the lights hit your fingernails. It holds a little shine but a good top coat will make it shinier.
Bedazzled for a night shot! |
I am quite surprised of how much I like the new bottle. I was never a fan of it when I first saw the change. I am quite a fanatic of their former bottle, which has a beautiful leaf design in the cap, plus a huge “The Face Shop” Logo written all over it. The new bottle seems so simple and ordinary. But then, I saw the practicality applied on their new bottle. The new cap provides a good grip to the handle, making it easier to apply the product on the nails. Their logo “THE FACE SHOP” is now engraved to the cap as opposed to their former bottle on which the name was just printed on the bottle. This ensures that the logo will not fade whatsoever even if you have the bottle for the longest time possible. I still love to see their old bottles but this new one is just as adorable.
This particular polish cost me P100 which is a bit pricey compared to local brands here in the Philippines. But then, this is a good brand that stays on your nails for days so I think it’s worth it.
The only thing I hate about this product is the fact that it stains my nails horribly. This is probably because of the orange tint that it has. It kind of stays on my nails even after removing the polish with a good nail polish remover.
Well, that’s it –my little babbling about this lovely nail polish. Thanks Zooey for inspiring me.
Till my next polish story!
Chow!
