Rimmel London 60 Second Nail Polish

*Purchased by Me

I Lilac You:





Mintalicious:




I'm a big advocate for pastels colors in fall. I think they can add a pop to your outfit like no other. That being said it's tricky to get a pastel creme polish to behave. I've had several experiences with streaky messes, which are never fun. I found these beauties at Walmart a few months ago and knew right then and there that I needed them. 

They're both from the Rimmel London's 60 second line. One is a yummy mint and the other a light lilac color. Both have great coverage in two coats, but being the stickler that I am I used three. Since buying these I've picked up about five more colors from the range including a gorgeous teal. 

There are two things about these polishes that really get me excited. First of all the price. They're 1.50 each. One one hand you can buy a few, but on the other hand you can buy ALL of them. The other thing I love about them is the color range. For the most part they're all creme finishes, but there are a few that are shimmery. I can't wait to go and pick out a few more.

Wet n Wild Fall Mattes

*Purchased by me



I love nail polish. There's no denying it, but I'm not the biggest fan of matte finishes. So when I saw this collection I was skeptical, but at less than 2 dollars a bottle it's worth a shot. This collection has six gorgeous colors and I love them all for fall. 

I do have to say these don't really dry to a matte finish. They have more of a satin finish which I like a bit more than flat matte. Every time I've wear these colors I still put on a top coat. It just makes the polish last longer.

The colors from left to right on the swatch wheel are: Rouge 66, Echo Dark, Berry on Trend, Distressed to Impress, Careful, It's Vine-tage, and LAC-My Mani? All of the swatches are three coats no top coat. 

My favorites are the winter white, the purple, and the brown. I've really been into neutrals recently, and that winter white/creamy color is the perfect undies for so many toppers. 

I've seen these at several Walgreen's stores, and all of them are still in great supply. These are limited edition so if you're interested, go grab them up.

Orly Rage

*Purchased by me, for me




It's no secret that I love nail polish. As much as I love it, I've been in a funk. There have been weeks, that's right, weeks where I've gone naked. Just a base coat longing for the perfect color to paint my tips. Well, not anymore. I've found the color that changes everything.

Orly Rage isn't a new color and it's not even new to me. I've had this bottle for the better part of a year. It was just sitting there in my rack looking neglected. It had even started to separate. Then one day I looked at it and knew. It was time to bust out the metallic goodness that is Rage.

It's a great coppery almost rose gold foil polish, and unlike many other foil polishes it applies like a dream. No streaking and no need for the obligatory third coat to even it all out. I just did two coats and coat of my favorite top coat and I was out the door.

I have so much love for this color that I've worn it twice in the last month. I keep reaching for it, and think it will take my nails into fall with ease and style.

What's you're go to transition color for fall?
