Island Girl 'Aloha Magic' 5 Pack


This is the 'Aloha Magic' pack shown here.  Umm I love my dad and am extremely grateful, but do u see the awkward bald spots on these nails.  These are all 4 coats.


First up is this magenta color (btw non of these have names). Now this is very unoriginal, I  have two exact dupes in my hoard and have seen many a more in the stores and online. (sorry but for the life of me blogger would not let me center that picture!)


This is another unoriginal color.  I have an L.A. Color that is IDENTICAL!  And while I haven't used that nail polish probably better than this.  Also not to big on this color any ways.


I really like this color. But no matter how many coats, there was always a bald spot.  


My favorite color of the bunch a really pretty teal-blue kinda color. although not very opaque.  Oh Island  Girl, you pretty colors and- oh no I can't say that on the internet- bad formulas depress me.


Best formula.  No awkward spots nice color too! So while not the best color it's defiantly the best polish!


This is a picture of all of them. 

What do you think?  Is this set worth the $12?  Do you have dupes for any of these colors?  Comment below

Island Girl Mood Nail Color

This is the Mood Nail Color set I got from my Island Girl Haul.  Well mood nail polish doesn't actually change with your mood (umm duh.).  But onto the swatches!



This is the nameless pink.  All of these dry matte although this is the only one that's photographed without a topcoat.  I'm not really a huge fan of hot pink but I do like this color.  This is 5 coats.  Yeah, did I forget to mention the formula on this SUCKED!  I probably should've done another coat.  If I went over it all of the polish below would disappear.   


This was my favorite color.  And it was surprising because in the bottle it didn't look like I would like it, but it's so pretty.  Also It changed the most (see below).  It normally looked like this but in sunlight it was brighter and had the dark green tips.  This is 5 coats and the formula was better than the pinks.




This a really pretty blue.  It was my favorite until I swatched the green.  Color-wise I still love it mostest, but green has it's formula beat.


BEFORE


DIPPED IN POT OF BOILING WATER



They all changed colors but green is the most obvious. (no duh why else is it my favorite?!)





I like it normal better because then you see less awkwardness.  But I still think its cool how under extreme heat it changes color.

Island Girl Haul!

I have a very like the best dad.  He spent the last week in Vegas and the last month before that I had been going on and on and on about Island Girl and how it can only be found at abc stores in Vegas.  Well when I saw him he brought me back a bagillion Island Girl stuff!  (sorry for the awkward lighting but I got the colors the most accurate)


Aloha Magic 5 pack


2-way Nail Art Pen and Striper


Mood Nail Color in Lei's

(top to bottom: watermelon, bubble gum, strawberry and raspberry)
And a 4 pack of roll on lipgloss with real flowers (I checked on the site)


(close up)



Now this is the purple from the 5 pack and it was, unique.  And by this I mean that the formula was so weird.  It was sheer but ya' know how sometimes going over a layer of paint and it pulls it off?  All of this would just come off when the brush barely touched it.  Like, the whole part of the nail was naked.  Also it dried darker than the bottle see picture below

BTW this is not my swatch of this color.  On thursday we have a half day and no school on friday and I promise you three 
readers that I will go SWATCH CRAZY!

Island Girl & Bloggers Not Telling Important Stuff

HEEEY FRIENDS! Sorry I haven't made a quality nail swatching post since SaGreen the Teenage Witch and I'm not totally sure if it's that high quality, cause I want good pictures, good job painting nails and stuff.  Well this isn't a nail polish post (and I am so so so so sorry), but it has to do with nail polish.  

So there's a brand of nail polish called Island Girl.  Well actually they also sell cosmetics.  And as every blog that has ever mentioned has said that they are only sold in ABC stores in Hawaii and Vegas.  And most people think of ABC store as in liquor.  Turns out they mean ABC store as in ABC Stores.  It's like a cross between a convenience store and a drug store.  WHY WASN'T I TOLD!  So yeah just thought you people should know because I was so confused.  

So all in all if you know someone going to Hawaii or Vegas... BEG THEM.  Because there are really pretty and yeah.
