Hello everyone! Today I have a fun review of the new mani mochi hand scrubs from Savvy Naturalista! These little mani mochi come in many different shapes and scents. Today I'll be sharing the four scents I received for review.  

The Sirens Drink

A sweet citrus blend of pineapple, grapefruit and orange. 

Cake Batter Face

Creamy vanilla frosting over a sweet white cake. 

Cinnamon Pumpkin Pie

Cinnamon, clove and a sweet sugary maple syrup. 

Love Shack

Oranges, pineapples, bananas and coconut. 

Ingredients and directions for use: 

Here is a mini demo using a chunk of Cake Batter Face. 

Cut or break off a chunk of your mani mochi. This chunk is enough 
for both hands. 

Gently massage onto wet hands. 

Rub in circular motions to exfoliate until the sugar crystals dissolve. 

Rinse and pat dry. Apply a hand cream and you're done! In this picture I haven't applied any cream yet. My skin is nice and exfoliated. These are extremely easy to use and they do not leave you feeling greasy at all. I really enjoyed these and my favorite scent is definitely Love Shack, followed by cinnamon pumpkin pie because while I'm all about pumpkin everything, the cinammon is heavier in this one and it smells delicious! 

I hope you enjoyed my review and if you're looking for some awesome and cute sugar scrubs, savvy naturalistas mani mochi are for you!

Hello everyone! I hope you're doing well. Today I have my swatches from The moste potente potions collection by Bohemian Polish. This collection is made up of 7 polishes, and I'll be sharing 3 of them with you today. I also got the chance to review their flash dry topcoat and their yummy Butter Beer cuticle oil! Onto the swatches! 

Liquid Luck

A warm golden orange holographic with warm gold glitter, like Felix Felicis, you can do no wrong with this polish! 

Furry Little Problem Solver

Inspired by Wolfsbane potion, this bright blue holographic polish has iridescent flakes that bottle the moon and tame the wild warewolf within! 

Half-Life 

A silver linear holographic with a metallic finish. Unlike the others this is not a potion but a cursed ingredient, unicorn blood. Drinking this gives the user s cursed existence, so settle for putting this on your nails and being a magical unicorn instead! 

These polishes have a lovely formula. I applied two coats plus the flash dry topcoat. The topcoat is slightly thin so try to avoid over flooding though it won't be a huge deal since it's clear, we don't want to waste any because.... It's awesome! It definitely dries in a flash and leaves a nice glossy finish. I tried it over a stamped nail and had no streaking, I only tested one stamping polish though and I floated the topcoat. 

Liquid luck is pretty great it can be built up in three coats but I was happy with two. 

Furry Little Problem Solver is a gorgeous shade. The flakes give a gentle spark to the nail but it's difficult to see them. Maybe I'm just blinded by the delicate holo. Anyway it's lovely and the formula was an easy two coats. 

Half-Life is fantastic. A slight shift of your hand and this beauty goes from a linear silver holo to a metallic silver with very minimal brush strokes. Definitely unicorn worthy! 

The bp Butter Beer cuticle oil is awesome. It smells divine, rich and buttery. It comes in a nice glass roll on tube. Definite must have! 

Mmm butter beer. You can choose from over 50 scents and this one is super yummy! They are 10ml and retail $4.25 usd. 

The moste potente potions retail for $9 usd with the exception of Half-Life which is $10 usd. You can also use code WANDCORE to receive 20% off of your total.

I hope you're well! In my last post I shared swatches of the Purjoi one step gel polish. In this post I'm going to share my wear test! Joi also sent some of her cuticle oil pens for me to try out so I'll have my thoughts on those as well. 

*deep breaths* 

And making her blog debut for this wear test.... Is my dominant hand. Oy. Ok time to come clean about how I don't treat her the same and how I don't show her nearly enough love, which I am currently working on changing. *rubs cuticle oil maniacally onto both hands* with that being said.... I suck at taking pics of Cindy, it's so awkward, uh... Let's do this! 

This is day 1... 

Three thin coats, let's see how it does. 

I have factored in a few things because my nails are fussy and I know it. I've been giving myself and my girls soak off manis for years now. Some brands just wear better on me than others... I can't wait for you to see the results on this mani. 

Day 7...

Still looking good. Some nail growth, and of course my in the middle of healing rough cuticles aside the mani is looking good. No lifting, chipping and barely tip wear. 

Day 14...

Sometime around day 11 I broke a nail, I had a weak spot that was known and it just couldn't handle housework lol! Anyway I let it be and went on with the testing. As you can see my nails grew out more. The gel is still totally attached to my nails. No real chipping. The gel did start to turn from pink to peach I'm not 100% sure on this but I'm assuming it's because I was using cleansers without wearing gloves when doing housework, I know, don't judge me too harshly. 

I went out of town for 2 days after the end of my wear test, but I didn't have time to remove the mani. On day 16 they were still holding on strong, and the constant sun at the beach over those 2 days really brought out the peach tone. But I can't get over it lasting 16 days!

As far as removal it was really easy. I used the normal soak off method and pushed it off with a cuticle pusher. There is a thin residue after removal so I gently and I mean gently buffed my nails and I was good to go! I washed my hands and oiled up with my purjoi cuticle oil pen in Ylang Ylang which might be my favorite of the six scents purjoi offers.

Summer Citrus, Ylang Ylang, Very Berry, Cucumber Melon, Vanilla Almond: Organic Almond, Jojoba, Apricot, Coconut oils, Vitamin E & Essence oil. 

All oils are cold pressed and do not contain mineral oils, parabens or chemicals. 

Today I have a new to me gel brand and I'm enjoying it so far. I'll be sharing swatches and a bit of stamping in this post.  I also have a wear test and purjoi cuticle oil review coming up!

Purjoi is a one step soak off gel (color, cure, repeat) as aposed to three step soak off gel (base, color, topcoat with curing between each). This makes Purjoi simple and really fast since you don't need base or topcoat or the extra curing time that comes with that. Now that you know a little bit about them...

Let's start with the swatches! 

3 thin coats. The finish is nice and smooth for not having a topcoat, I was really pleased with that.
