Ulta Limited Edition Nail Lacquer


I'll let you in on a little secret: I've never ordered anything from ULTA - until now, that is! I'll give you a moment of exaggerated gasps...In any case, the other week I placed an order from our amazing makeup super-store and was not disappointed! My order arrived quickly and with everything in tow. Among my order was the ULTA limited edition nail lacquer. It's the holiday season and that means seasonal makeup and beauty products are lining the shelves and our web browsers. As you might already know, I'm obsessed with nail polish. I've been doing my nails since the sixth grade and I have never once looked back. I was browsing ULTA online one night and came across an amazing deal: 5 items for $5! The limited edition nail polish immediately caught my eye as I was captivated by the holiday-inspired colors. 

I hurriedly added four bottles of nail polish (plus blue mascara, french manicure strips, and eyeliner) to my cart, satisfied with my latest snag. There are more than four colors in the collection but I chose these four because I didn't have colors like them (and now I'm glad I do!) ULTA nail lacquer usually sells for about $6 a bottle but because of the deal I paid $4 for all four instead of $24! Thank you ULTA!! 

These nail polishes are very pigmented. At most, I applied two coats of polish, though, some of them didn't need two coats. They are also rather quick drying, which is a huge plus for me because I'm always busy and, even though I like to get my hands dirty, I can't say I'd be too thrilled by messing up a freshly manicured hand! So you can see how gorgeous these colors are, here are some swatches: 

'Let it Snow' is a glittery white nail polish. It's my favorite glitter nail polish ever because it's so concentrated that it only takes two coats to become opaque and and oh-so enchanting!


'Peppermint' is an icy light blue that is the opposite of sheer! I'm in love with this color because it maintains a cool tone while still being vivid. I can just imagine myself curling up to a steamy peppermint mocha when I see this color! 


'Naughty or Nice' is an electrifying purple. The color is sassy but sweet and it's awesome for showing off at a Christmas party!


'Silver Bell' is a perfect silver, kind-of gunmetal shade! It's absolutely brilliant and eye-catching. This color is the perfect epitome of the graceful silver ornament our Christmas trees have come to know. 


If I had to pick a favorite, I'd say Silver Bell rocks the vote, but Peppermint is definitely up there! Like I said, I'm extremely impressed with ULTA brand nail polish and I would like to delve deeper into their awesome products! 

Which color is your favorite?
