Monthly Nails + Pick of the Month - February

Hi, everyone!  It's time for my monthly nails again.  I've only got two this month - both from the same brand :/.  I guess I did more nail designs than planned :)...












This one turned out much darker than expected!  It's e.l.f. "Party Purple".  Not the most stunning of all colors, but a nice deep, dramatic purple.













This one is a beautiful nude color.  It's again by e.l.f in the color "Nude".  I love the color - I haven't tried nude polishes like this much but I really like it!  My reaction to this brand is not too good, though.  Although I've only tried it out twice, e.l.f nail polishes did not turn out the best.  They went on the nail kind of patchy (do not attempt two coats, or it will look even more patchy - do one thick coat) and did not last long at all!  After one day there were several chips.  But I did not expect wonders with this brand - e.l.f. polishes run around $2 a piece.  Very pretty colors, though.

The pick of the month is not too hard for me... e.l.f. "Nude" is a perfect natural color.  It really sparked an interest in me for nude polishes like this.  I think it looks great - it makes your nails look better and "polished" but isn't something too bold - although it is fun to use bold, bright colors sometimes :) Hope you enjoyed!
