Spring Nail Art From Target

Paid Sponsored Post

I went to Target and grabbed some nail items to do a spring nail art look. Since my nails are a bit beat up at the moment I first bought some false nails to paint on, which gave the added bonus of having a bit more control. Target had several brands to choose from, and all are good and affordable. For polish, I did a base coat with Sally Hansen Insta Dri  in Peachy Breeze. I then did a swirl pattern and dots with with Revlon Nail Art Neon in High voltage and Pink Glow.

I wanted something that seemed floral and that definitely invoked Spring, but I also wanted it to be a bit subtle too and not too stylized. I figured that type of look is also easier to make.  So I went for abstract and used a nail art brush to make an uneven X on each nail with the Revlon High voltage Orange, and then I used a dotting tool to dot on Revlon Pink Glow.  A shiny clear top coat really brings out the neon in the Revlon polish.

Here is the result:

A bonus of the Revlon products are that they are two sided and come with a white polish, so you would do this look on a white base instead if you wanted a different look or wish to to buy less products.

Revlon Neon Nail Art

I saw a lot of neat Spring polish shades at Target, including a bunch more dual sided Revlon ones that could be used for all sorts of fun looks. Overall, it is a great way to get an easy and affordable nail art look.

Revlon Just Bitten Lip Stain and Balm Review

In my opinion, Revlon is usually the best source for quality drugstore lipsticks.  The last time I was at Target, I grabbed a couple of Revlon lip stain items to try: a Revlon Just Bitten Lip Stain Pencil and a Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lip Stain Balm. Both are nice and they work pretty well together too.

Revlon Lip Stain Review

The Revlon Just Bitten stain is a standards lip stain with a pen applicator. I liked Just Bitten better when it came as a roller ball, but the pen does make application a bit easier. It lasts really well. I had a hard time washing the swatch off and it stayed on my lips for hours.  It comes with a balm on the opposite end to wear over the stain, or you could put a clear or colored gloss over it.

Revlon’s new Just Bitten Kissable lip stain balm is a crayon lip color that provides a moisturizing stain. I really liked this product for its combination of long wear and comfortable feel. It comes with a twist up tube, so there is no sharpening needed and there is lots of product.

Here are swatches. On the left is the Just Bitten Kissable balm in 005 Crush Begun and on the right is the Just Bitten stain in Frenzy

Revlon Lip Stain Balm Swatches

Here I am wearing the products. I put the stain on under the Kissable balm. That made for a nice, longwearing combo.

I also did a quick video review of the products. You can see that below.

You can get Revlon products at any drugstore or big box retailer, and at many grocery stores. Or, look for them here at Drugstore.com. They run around the $8-9 price range.
