    OMFG, this color collection transported me right back to my mom's closet, ca 1975. She's wild about earth tone colors like these, because they look so smashing on her. I understand now why she bought SO MANY clothes and shoes at the time. I mean, it's rare to have your best colors be all the rage, and these boho colors were just that in the mid-70s.

    I have always been a LA Colors fan. Where I live, I can get them for $2 a bottle which is such a great deal. Some colors I feel are much better than others as far as coverage, but I can get 5 bottles of LA Colors versus one bottle of OPI. Thank you for this video! I'll be picking up some of these : )

    • @KelliMarissa
      @KelliMarissa  2 года назад +3

    Considering the low price point these polishes are pretty good. I own several different colors that perform relatively well. I really like the colors presented today and plan to get the entire collection. There is a dollar store very near me that carries this brand. I use these colors in nail art! I am currently reading Angel Armies on Assignment by Pastor Tim Sheets.

    I love LA Colors, I always enjoy when you swatch them. The "gel-like" tagline does annoy me a little, but I guess they do always have a really nice glossy shine haha. The bottles are cute and practical, the price is excellent, and the formula is really quite good for such an inexpensive brand!

  • @AlysiaTribeca
    @AlysiaTribeca 2 года назад +11

    Another "gel like" nail polish that's pretty affordable that I love is Essence The Gel nail polish. The base coat is in an opaque bottle so I would imagine it would also throw people off thinking it's a real gel polish. But I usually get like 5 or 6 days of wear out of the polishes

    I have about 10 LA Colors polishes, all bought on your recommendation and videos. I think they're great! Sometimes I will trim the brushes' tips into a more rounded shape with some small scissors for a better fit around my cuticles (then I clean the scissors with acetone on a cotton round). These "gel" (haha) polishes really are soooper shiny, and I also enjoy the aesthetic of the cap matching the color in the bottle.

Oh well, I didn't intend to buy more nail polishes anytime soon. Still, I love how LA Colors takes risks with the palettes they come out with. Also, I unfortunately haven't read many books this year; I've been far too busy. Laurie Woolever's "Bourdain: The Definitive Oral Biography" is both heartbreaking and informative, however.

    That first teal polish is the perfect color to represent succulents (i.e. cacti and other such plants). Very summer-y if you look at it that way. I feel like they did a very good color story. That top row could easily represent the summer in the West coast, while the bottom represents the summer on the East coast.

    Do you ever read sci fi? It’s not high fantasy but This Is How You Lose The Time War is a really good, relatively short scifi love story. I think it’s kind of a slow start but it is one of my favorites. Spinning silver is also really good, I don’t know that I’d categorize it as a romance but it does have romance aspects. Unfortunately I don’t really read much romance so I can’t recommend much in that category 😅 I read For The Wolf and that’s also a good amount of romance but I didn’t like it as much as a lot of other people seem to, maybe you’d like that?
    Idk sorry for rambling I just have a lot of opinions about books lol

    I'd love to see you review the swedish brands Isadora and Makiash. They both have other products but let's talk about their polishes. 😇 I really think you'd like them. Isadora is one of the biggest makeup brands in sweden and is very popular. Makiash is relatively new on the market but their polishes blew me away. To me both brands are in the same league as OPI and Essie.
    I really hope you're able to find them online. I've followed you for so many years, and I've wanted to see you try these polishes from the start. 🙌❤️

    Oooooh, book recommendations! I'm a librarian and read a LOT, and YA fantasy is totally my jam - I highly recommend anything by Elizabeth Lim and Leigh Bardugo if you haven't already read their stuff! (I'll admit the Grisha trilogy is a little shaky - first book quality, but still a good story - but the Six of Crows duology is FANTASTIC!) I usually only buy books if I've gotten them from the library and loved them enough that I'd definitely read them again, but these two are auto-buy authors for me.

    These look really pretty together though I don't really get summer vibes from the collection...which doesn't matter to me as I don't paint per season anyway 🤣 Is LA Colors in any way related to LA Girl? I have some gorgeous polishes from LA Girl but never tried anything from LA Colors.
    I need to get back into reading, I literally haven't read any books this year yet!

    @saharamist3744 2 года назад

    I’ve never tried this brand so thanks for the review! I don’t usually like high fantasy either. I think it has something to do with how detailed the world building is so there’s not a lot of room for imagination. The closest I’ve gotten is the Kushiel’s Legacy series by Jacqueline Carey. It’s got elements of fantasy, romance, political intrigue, and an interesting religious belief system. There’s definitely some steamy scenes but a lot less than the description would lead you to believe. You should also check out The Myst Reader (3 novels) by writer David Wingrove with Rand and Robyn Miller. It’s based on the old computer game from the late 90s(?). I’ve never played the game but I love the books.

    I totally understand your complaint about the misuse of "gel" by nail polish companies. I'm not polish historian, but I feel like the brand that got that ball rolling was Sally Hansen. It definitely leaves me with a bad impression of them, especially in combination with the fact that they were compensating influencers for telling everyone how "long lasting" this new line was.
