The two gorgeous nail lacquers that were sent to me for review are (O8A) Mint Candy, and (582) Milani Jewel FX.

Here’s the first Milani Nail Lacquer: Mint Candy

I used two coats of this creme polish, and did not add a top coat. I’m just amazed at how shiny and beautiful Milani Nail Lacquers are without any top coat added.

I then added two coats of the Milani Jewel FX Nail Lacquer in Teal:

Milani formulated this chunky glitter to, “give the impression of the finest jewels adorning your nails. Multi-colored glitter sparkles like gems.”

Thoughts About the Milani Nail Lacquers:

I love the large and small glitters, and while I could have done my nails with one coat, I love glitter, so I added a second coat. How many coats you choose will obviously depending on the level of sparkling you want. Once again, I have no top coat on! The only con I could find is that some may not like the feel of the large glitter on their nails. Of course, that problem can be easily solved by adding a top coat. Just for record, I like to see what polish looks like for those who either don’t want to, or don’t have time to add a top coat.

Here are the two Milani Nail Lacquers, with two coats of polish on each nail, no top coat: Mint Candy and Teal.

Milani: Color With Impact.

On Twitter and Facebook

Dark Coffee and Chocolate Sprinkles are two nail lacquers from the Spring Collection of 2012.

Since the colors remind me of the fall, I decided to pair them with one of the pumpkins from my father’s garden. He’s been trying to grow them for his grandchildren. My children love to watch them grow; and then, if the deer and other animals don’t get to them first– pick out their pumpkins!

The first nail lacquer color to show you is Chocolate Sprinkles:

A close-up of Chocolate Sprinkles:

Just look at this gorgeous color!! It’s so shiny, and I do not even have a top coat on my nail! The chocolate brown color polish has gold, bronze and red shimmer.

Next color to show you is the Milani Nail Lacquer in the color Dark Coffee:

Dark Coffee is a creme, and once again, to show how shiny and beautiful this color is on it’s own, I do not have a top coat on my nail! Such a beautiful, rich color.

Here are the two colors in another photo:

Thoughts About the Milani Nail Lacquers:

I just love that there is a beautiful glossy finish to both the Dark Coffee and Chocolate Sprinkles, and therefore, to show that, I did not use a top coat in the photos. I applied two coats of polish, and I did not have any streaking. The nail polish was quick to dry, and there’s nothing I didn’t love about both colors. In fact, given that the polishes list for $4.49, I would write that it’s a bargain price!

Disclosure: I received the nail polish for review. All of the links are for your convenience only.
