Ruby Wing Swatches & Review - My very 1st Time Ever!


 

Hi! This is gonna be my very first time reviewing Ruby Wing Nail Polish. I feel so bad that since the first time I love to play with polishes, I never thought to try this product. The last time I remember was a couple years ago when I wanted to buy and try one, I read some review saying that not all of their Ruby Wing polishes can change color. So… why should I buy this product, then? They are selling us their color-changing product but not all of them can work properly on different people that I’ve read the review. So, I don’t think I want to try, it’s gonna be disappointing, I thought. But lately I think like, whatever, I wanna try this anyway. I want to see, is it really that great (the color changing effect)? And I also want to prove is it really working or not. So…….. I bought some from an online shopping web here in Indonesia (blibli.com). I just need to write down what I want, so I write ‘ruby wing’ on the search field and voila! It shows so many options, shades, and online shop that selling these polishes. I choose some and pay it right away and after some couple days it arrived at my home! Hoho

The 4 shades that I bought were :

 
(left to right: Zen Garden, Wild Flower, Saloon Sweetheart, Eternal)
 
 
 

1.       Ruby Wing ‘Saloon Sweetheart’
It’s a red-kinda-light peachy color that looks so delicate yet gonna be look a deep dark red under the sun shine (outdoor).

2.       Ruby Wing ‘Eternal’
It’s a light green, look like a green-leaf, but it’s gonna be look dark greyish green on the outside under the sun shine.

3.       Ruby Wing ‘Zen Garden’
This one is a light and pale purple. It looks so pale that it’s kinda look grey or ashen sometime but it will be look like a deep dark purple under the sun shine. And I kinda like it! The indoor look is too pale and I already have one like this from Revlon Top Speed Nail Polish in ‘Lily’ shade. They are kinda look the same.

4.       Ruby Wing ‘Wild Flower’
And this one was my favorite! The kinda glittery yellow color made me really in love and bought this one. Under the sunshine it will be look kinda peachy-orangey dark yellow.

These are the basic review that I can give to you BEFORE I try them up on my nails. After I try them all, these are my thought about these 4 first polishes I have from Ruby Wing :




 Ruby Wing ‘Saloon Sweetheart’ 

 
 
When I tried this one, I was satisfied with the result and love it so much!
Just like how it looks on the web, the peach color is very delicate and nothing’s wrong until….. I try to go to the outside to prove the solar effect. I put my nails under the sunshine for 15 minutes and nothing happened L I was really disappointed but then I read some reviews said that they also failed their polish, it simply doesn’t change color.. well then..

Ruby Wing ‘Eternal’ 

 
After I failed on my first trial with my Saloon Sweetheart shade, I don’t expect a lot from my Eternal. But overall, the color is really nice and I really like this kind of green. It isn’t too dark but it is not a light ‘neon’ green too. It’s a light green leaf, and really good in my skin. I think if you have a fair-medium shade of skin, this color will match so well with you.
You can see it in one of my post on my instagram page -- HERE

Ruby Wing ‘Zen Garden’

 
 
 
I don’t think I can say a lot about this shade. I already have another shade from Revlon Top Speed Polish and it looks really alike with this one, the shade named ‘Lily’. But this Ruby Wing dry faster and I can feel it thicker that Revlon’s.
But Ruby Wing’s price is 6x more expensive than Revlon’s. so, if you want the quality, I think it’s better for you to purchase Ruby Wing’s. But for daily, if you’re not really into the color and just for collection, Revlon’s Lily isn’t bad, tho.

Ruby Wing ‘Wild Flower’

 
 
 This color is sucha cutie. I really really really love it. But when I tried it up, omg it’s a sheer shade. I need to apply it 5-6 layers per nail. And to dry it, I need a very loooong time. Yeah, basically I am not a fan of sheer polish, for an ombre maybe it will look good, but well, for daily use, I don’t recommend this one.

So now you can see, here's my swatch (i'm too lazy to do a full hand swatch, so here's my fastest way to do a swatch : 1 shade per nail ehehehehehehehe
the first picture i take it in the indoor room, then the second picture i take it at the garden of a mall (outdoor but not really sunny that time)

(outdoor look, they're not even a slightly darker, are they?)

The Body Shop COLOUR CRUSH - Swatches & Review


Hello there, very long time no post. Sorry for procrastinate my blog post for a couple months, it's because my job at the office becoming soo cray cray lately. I cant make it to do any post even that i really wanted to :(

So today, i wanna review my new babies that i just got last week. It's The Body Shop new nail polish products, COLOUR CRUSH.
The name is so catchy and make me really want to now, do they really going to be my crush?
I saw at the internet, the colors are quiet attractive and they give you quiet a lot options of shades, here they are...



So, i went to the closest The Body Shop store in my city and got some of these pretty polishes for me.
The first time i saw the packaging, i think it has quietly the same shape with Maybelline Color Show. But when Maybelline has a black cap at the packaging, The Body Shop bottle has the silver one.
Every bottle consist of 6,8 ml polish and i think it's good enough, i mean it's not too much which can make you feel that the polish will take forever to keep on your rack.

I took two color as a trial. I picked the deep-hot-pink and the half-peach-orange as my starter hoho
And for me, these color are look almost the same in a glance.



The pink one is 'Cupid Pink', i think the color is really suitable for every pink lover out there (also me). Because the pink is seriously pretty and match in every look and every situation (which is for every pink lover-once again like me-pink will never wrong) hahaha
But if you want the other pink, like, maybe you want the lighter one, you may try Rosy Cheek or Oh Petal. The pink are light but pink enough (i have no idea how to explain that hahahaha). You can check it at their website or at the polishes table i've showed you above.

And the second one, the peachy-orange polish that i picked, it's 'Just Peachy' shade. The color is absolutely refreshing. You can saw it and i know you do think just like me. But i dont think the name really show the polish, i think it's more like 'Just Orangy' that 'Just Peachy', do you think so?



You can see the price, i think it's quiet pricey, i mean, the price (in Indonesian Rupiah it's 99.000 or around US$ 8) is only a couple bucks from O.P.I and China Glaze in my country (which is usually go for 150.000 in rupiah or around US$ 12), but the endurance is a little bit dissapointing.
The first day i applied it on my nails, i immadiately get the scratch on it. The polish are peeling just by a slight crash. I mean, it doesnt last as long as i thought before.

So here's a little conclusion about my swatches and review for The Body Shop Colour Crush (the grade is from 1-10) :


The Endurance : absolutely i dont think i can say that it's satisfy me, because it's not even last as long as a thought. But because it's also 'not that bad' i think it's 5.5 out of 10.
Color Options : they're just launched this products but the color are so attractive and vary. So i really appreciate this one, so the color options is 9 out of 10.
Scent : sometime i find a polish can make me dizzy because the scent is too strong. But this one is not that strong so the scent is good enough. Even though, i think Body Shop can make it more perfume-less, yeah, just like their other products, so it's 8 out of 10.
The Speed of Drying : well yeah, it can dried quiet fast, so i'm satisfy with the speed. It's 8 out of 10.
The Packaging : i've told you before that the packaging is not really attractive. The bottle shape doesnt show the 'pricey' qualty. And more about it, the other brand already has almost the same packaging with this one, so i think they should try another shape to make people think 'wow that's The Body Shop polishes!' even when they saw it from afar or just a glance. So the packaging is 6 out of 10.

And last but not least...



Re-purchase?
Yes!

Reason?
Because it's easier for me to find Body Shop's at mall than another good polishes here in my town. And another reason is that the colors that they offer are vary but not too many so it doesnt make me confused to choose one. Another polish are tooo many various color and sometime it makes me confused which one that i already have and which one that i should purchase.

What do you think? ;)
