Ella + Mila "Under the Sea" Swatch and Review | #SwatchSunday

Hi everyone!

It's Sunday, which means that it's time for another #SwatchSunday post! You might remember from last week that I got some new polishes Snail Vinyls recently. They have started to stock a few nail polish brands, including Ella + Mila.

Today's #SwatchSunday is going to be for this gorgeous teal polish, "Under the Sea". I love the name of this! I immediately start imagining Sebastian sing "Under the Sea" from The Little Mermaid when I use this polish.

Zoya "Merida" Swatch & Review | #SwatchSunday

Hello everyone!

I apologize for my short little break! I start my first year in college in just a week, and have been tied up with last minute shopping and other preparations.

Today I have #SwatchSunday post for you all; one that I have really been looking forward to! I recently got a bottle of Zoya "Merida" from their new Urban Grunges Collection. I absolutely knew that I had to have this polish (not just because it is a sparkly deep green) but because Merida is my favorite princess. I have long, curly, red hair just like her, so I always say that she's my twin :)

Ok, enough back story! Here's my review.

Essie "Bikini So Teeny" Swatch and Review | #SwatchSunday

Hello everyone!

Today for #SwatchSunday I have a swatch and review of Essie "Bikini So Teeny"! This polish is such a huge favorite of so many nail polish lovers, and I am no exception. I am a sucker for blues and this one is so beautiful and perfect for summer.

"Bikini So Teeny" is a slightly purple-toned light blue creme polish. It is extremely subtle, but this polish does have tiny little bits of silver glitter in it. You can only really see the sparkle in the sun.

Hello everyone! Happy #SwatchSunday :)

Today I have a swatch and review of Il était un vernis "Monsier Je T'aime", a gorgeous teal holographic polish. I purchased this polish from Live Love Polish, though it is currently out of stock there.

Anyone who knows me knows that blue and blue-green polishes are my absolute favorite. A few months ago, I spotted this on the LLP site and I knew that I had to have it!

Smith and Cult "Filth Noir" Swatch and Review | #SwatchSunday

Hello everyone!

Today I have my final Smith & Cult swatch and review for you all! Last, but certainly not least, is "Filth Noir".

Smith & Cult "Filth Noir" is a vampy, deep purple creme. In some lights, it looks almost black. Here I am wearing two smooth coats with a layer of their Above it All top coat. Look how shiny it is!!

Smith and Cult "Beat Street" Swatch and Review | #SwatchSunday

Hello everyone!

Today for #SwatchSunday I have another Smith and Cult review for you all. This beauty is called "Beat Street".

Smith and Cult "Stockholm Syndrome" Swatch and Review | #SwatchSunday

Hello everyone!

In case you didn't notice, my blog has a new URL! I am finally www.nailsbyerin.com! No more of those little dashes :) Of course, that old URL (www.nails-by-erin.com) will still redirect you to this blog, but I am so excited to have the new one, haha.

I also gave my blog a little bit of a makeover! I wasn't loving the color scheme anymore and I wanted to make it more simple and sophisticated. I went for this gray and seafoam style (I am absolutely loving seafoam colors right now) but of course, I still kept my classic gray and white chevron! I knew I couldn't give that up :)

So today for #SwatchSunday, I have another Smith and Cult swatch and review for you all! This gorgeous polish is called "Stockholm Syndrome".

Smith & Cult "Stockholm Syndrome" is a purple toned gray creme. I'm wearing two smooth coats with a layer of their Above It All top coat. I also used their Basis of Everything base coat underneath this polish.

Smith and Cult "Dark Like Me" Swatch and Review | #SwatchSunday

Hello everyone!

For today's #SwatchSunday, I have a review of Smith and Cult "Dark Like Me", a dark, vampy, burgundy creme.

In case you missed my last Smith and Cult review post, their polishes have a 5-Free formula, which means it does not contain Dibutyl, Phthalate, Toluene, Formaldehyde, Formaldehyde Resin and Camphor.

The polishes, as well as the base and top coat, are $18 each.

Smith and Cult "She Said Yeah" Swatch and Review | #SwatchSunday

Hello everyone!

Today's #SwatchSunday post is with a new-to-me brand, Smith and Cult! Their polishes feature a 5-Free formula, which means it does not contain Dibutyl, Phthalate, Toluene, Formaldehyde, Formaldehyde Resin and Camphor.

Their nail polishes are $18 each, so I would consider this to be more high end.

The polish I'm sharing with you today is "She Said Yeah". On their site, this is described as opaque muted periwinkle, and I think I would agree with that. It is like a muted blue creme with a lot of purple tones in it. These are the kind of colors I love!

Now, because this polish is high end, and it is a bit pricier than other nail polishes, I wore this polish for a full week before finishing my review. I wanted to be able to tell you how the polish lasted! Scroll down to the end of this post to read about how it lasted throughout the week.

Cirque Colors "Deco" Swatch and Review | #SwatchSunday

Hello everyone!

Recently I picked up a few new nail polishes from Live Love Polish (which as many of you know, I am an intern for them :) Regardless, LLP is my favorite online nail polish store, and I buy a ton of my nail polish from there).

One polish that I have been eyeing for a while is Cirque Colors "Deco", so in my little haul a few weeks ago, I decided to get it.

"Deco" is a grayish-purple creme, almost like a deep, grayish-mauve. This is not a color that I would usually try out, but it looked so gorgeous and I knew I had to have it.
