So I got my e.l.f. nail polish shipment in the other day! Whooooo! I took advantage of the 50% off the whole website discount and bought me some more nail polish. Where can you go wrong with $1 nail polish? Originally, e.l.f. nail polish was $1, but they upped it to $2 for their new formula. And half off took it back down to $1 again. But still. $2 nail polish! That's always welcome in my home!
Now I want to clear everything up about e.l.f. nail polish. THEY ARE AMAZING. The quality is wonderful for $2, and I would definitely recommend that everyone buy it. It would save you a lot of money compared to the bigger brands. BUT the reviews saying that the smell is unbearable is very true. The gold sparkly one and flake one smelled the worst. OH LAWDY the gold one's smell punches you in the nose HARD. But all in all, you don't buy nail polish for the smell, you buy nail polish for the quality of the polish. Which in my book, they get an A+. Don't like it? Go buy scented nail polish.

My shark nails when I'm texting! Looking down makes me so happy. Nobody understands. @___@ Don't hate on my old phone and make-up stained screen. The sharks are like.. OM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM on my keyboard! It's so exciting. :DDDDD
Awesome swatches! I've always seen the elf polishes on their website, but never really seen them on any blogs! Thanks for the swatches/review! My local target carries a lot of elf prodcuts, but never the polishes! What's up with that? I really wish that they would get some in!

I love Elf Polishes. I get confused when I see the occasional horrible review, and chalk it up to a fluke bottle. Every nail polish I've ever bought chips after a couple days or sooner without a good, solid top coat. So its silly to me when people complain about that. I love the colors, LOVE LOVE LOVE the way it glides on and of course I love the price. Elf is the easiest nail polish to apply that I've tried IMO. I like the elf flakies because I can do a light sparkle or a heavy sparkle with more coats. I have more control over it than some other brands. And I actually like the smell of the polish. THe glitter ones are strong, but the normal polish kinda smells like bananas to me lol
