A few days ago, I showed you a few products I received from Bootie Babe Cosmetics. After a couple days of wear time and swatches, I've come to my final verdict. But first, pictures!
Hella Baloo
1 Coat - No Top Coat
Purp Slurp
1 Coat - No Top Coat
If you are a Bay Area native like myself, the word "hella" may have rung a bell. When I first heard of this brand, I noticed that "hella" was in the name of one of their polishes. I checked to see where this brand was located and sure enough, San Francisco! The word, hella, basically means a lot or very much. Ex. If you are extremely exhausted, you would say I'm hella tired.
Just a little Bay Area lingo for ya! ;) Back to business!
Let's start off with the packaging.
How cute are these?! I've never smiled or laughed so hard while applying my nail polish! It's safe to say that these are def. the most "FUN" nail polishes I own. The cap is a bit smaller than your usual caps, but there is enough room around the rim for you to easily grasp.
Application, Formulation, and Quality
These apply like a dream and they are 1 coaters! They have the perfect sized brush for effortless application. Both Hella Baloo and Purp Slurp dry to a satin finish. I wouldn't call it a matte finish since there is def. some sheen once it dries. I can get in a good 5 days before any minor chipping occurs- and that's without a topcoat! ;)
Pricing and availability
Bootie Babe nail polishes retail for $6.00 each and can be purchased at http://bootiebabe.com. They offer International shipping and customer service is excellent. Tell them Carla from Deuce Beauties sent you! ;)
As always, hope this helps & happy shopping!
