Treatment Tuesdays! L.A. Girls Hydrating Base Coat

L.A. Girl's Hydrating Base Coat has been my go to basecoat for almost a year now. My beautiful partner picked it up for me when he was out shopping, and what a great choice he made! 

I think L.A. Girl treatments range from around $6-$10. A bargain! 

The wear on this base coat was great. I say was because I've only a few drops left. It really helped keep my polish where it was supposed to be. It aided in stopping it chipping off at the corners too.

L.A. Disco Light Show















This is a really nice jelly orange if you are after one. It looks quite creamy here, but I assure you it has jelly like qualities. 

I only needed two coats of this one. The formula once again like the other L.A. Girls polishes I have tried, has a nice thickness to it and very smooth. Great coverage too.
I'm not really too sure why I bought this one. I think I just had a thing for orange at the time.

I wonder how I'm going to be able to choose a colour for the walls when I own a house? You know, you just feel so passionate about some colours and want them on everything. Then you get sick of seeing it around and need a change... 

L.A. Disco Vinyl Record













Once again, our faithful cameras let us down again. Vinyl record is much more teal than what is shown here.

You can get this for $7 at Dress Smart in Onehunga. I haven't really seen the L.A. girls colours anywhere else.

The formula was quite consistent with the other shades I tried from this range. Quite a nice thickness to it, very smooth and excellent coverage. It can apply thickly quickly though, so be careful with these ones.

L.A. Disco Can U Dig It?














I recently discovered these polishes at the wonderful Dress Smart in Onehunga. They were pretty cheap too, only $7! They have OPI polishes too but only a lot of sparkly poo coloured ones. Hmm I wonder why no one buys those shades...

Any who, this little beauty is called Can U Dig It? I don't really care much for the name, but I adore the colour! (Still pining over that OPI Shrek colour!). I wore it on my toes first and wore it for weeks. I couldn't get enough of it!

You only need two coats of Can U Dig It? The formula is quite good, a nice thickness and opacity to it. Quite fast drying too as I put it on my toes again the other day, then got distracted and forgot to apply top coat. It dried just fine, maybe not as shiny, but pretty well.

I think the colour of Can U Dig It is a little more vivid than what my photos show.

It also says it glows in black light, I haven't tested that but it sure would be cool to see!
