Vidyia Murali: The Face Shop Nail Polish!

So after a really tiresome and long semester, I have finally acquired some time to think through about the types of posts I can write about ranging from beauty to book reviews. I am going to attempt to bring my writing style in an entirely different direction. I want to write about things that matter to my readers while still retaining the element of my interest so that I can truly write about something I care. For your information, I have a myriad of interests and some of them even include collecting National Geographic magazines. If there are any kinds of reviews you would like me to do, regarding books, makeup, clothes, stationery and so on, please just drop them in the comments section and I hope I can pick up a few viable and doable suggestions.

As for books, I have acquired a few of them this year and let me tell you something, I have not gotten down to the reading part just yet. Free time is so hard to get by and believe me, when I say that! I will be reviewing books as soon as I can put them down permanently and I hope I can help most of you make some good book choices. Most of the books I buy are from MPH Bookstore, Book Xcess (famous for their Big Bad Wolf Sales) and even Popular Bookstore. I do have some suggestions where you could get cheap and affordable alternatives and this is for those of you who don’t want to splurge on a book considering you would only read it once. So look out for those tips!

I will try to be consistent with my posts as often as I can get. Cross my heart, hope I don’t die! Please keep in mind that I am giving my word during a semester break. So I will try to squeeze in as many posts as I can into this time period considering the fact that I am a part time blogger … I have commitment issues to social networking.

I love unique nail polish colors and lately I have been going for subtle and mute colors ranging from the muted grey tones with purple undertones to burgundies and olive greens like this color right here. So, today ladies I purchased a nail polish from The Face Shop and it is the shade GR509 which is a deep olive green color with hints of teal. I cannot stress how much I am in love with this color! I have subconsciously bought a few things in the same color this season and honestly I just realized how unhealthy my obsession is getting. Lol! (Not so unhealthy)

Anyway, coming back to the color pay-off of this polish, it’s amazing! The color is so opaque and the applicator is so easy to use almost similar to the Sally Hansen applicator. Also, the price of this nail polish is really affordable as I played only RM8.40 for this since it was on a 20% discount. The Face Shop has some versatile colors suitable for all skin tones in terms of polishes and I feel most affordable nail polish outlets like these don’t cater to these kinds of unique colors so I end up getting these colors from more expensive outlets like OPI or Sephora.

Nail polishes are not something I would want to spend RM40 or more for since I usually don’t always apply the same color for all my outfits. So if you are looking for a unique color like this one, try The Face Shop and you might just get what you are looking for. As for the longevity of the product, I think a little nail polish remover can ensure that any kind of basic polish (except the crackle ones) can be revived.

Mix a few drops of nail polish remover into your polish and shake it up to dissolve the dried color in the bottle and voila, good as new!*
