Supplies: Silk Naturals Olive Oil Lotion

I was recently sent a few products to try out from the well-known indie makeup company, Silk Naturals! I've got some makeup swatches to show you guys soon, but I want to start off with their Olive Oil Lotion, which I've been trialling for a couple of weeks.
Here's what the website says about the lotion:

I wanted to make a simple hand and body lotion- nothing crazy, or over the top- nothing that required a science lesson- just a good, basic, not terribly expensive, yet natural, and organic cream.  I finally succeeded.  This is nothing fancy- just 7 well chosen, nice ingredients.  It's light, yet nourishing, and I used a really cool emulsifier that actually resists being washed-off more than most- so it's nice if you're washing your hands a lot.  There's also some Oatmeal extract that helps draw moisture from the air- even at low humidity.  If you're not overly concerned about acne it's also nice as a face cream.

I haven't trialed it as a face cream, but I've been keeping my tube at my desk - I am a FIEND for hand lotion so I've got some stashed everywhere - and it's lovely. It's thick, as you can see from the dab on my skin, and lightly oily, but it sinks into your skin really quickly, and does not feel heavy at all. I love that! I don't notice much of a scent. It keeps me moisturized for long periods of time, also - I don't find myself reaching for lotion as much when I use this.
Ingredients listed on the site as well as the back of the bottle, as you can see:

Ingredients:  Certified Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Certified Organic Jojoba oil, Behentrimonium Methosulfate (and) Cetearyl Alcohol (naturally derived from Colza oil), Sorbitol Hydrolyzed Oats, Gluconolactone (and) Sodium Benzoate

A 4oz. bottle runs $11.99, and a 1oz bottle is $2.99.

Have any of you tried any of Silk Naturals products? I have seen a lot of positive reviews, myself! So I'm excited to be able to trial some of the products for you all. If you're interested in looking at the Olive Oil Lotion, it's on this page. Also, they have several other varieties of lotion you can find on this page!

Supplies: Revlon Quick Dry Top Coat

This is a series I was running on my other blog, so I think it's useful to continue it here. I hope you all will like it and find it useful! When I talk about supplies, I am referring to things like top coat, base coat, treatments, cuticle removers, nail polish removers, etc.
I want to talk briefly about formula. Not every top coat works the same way with every person - for instance, there are a lot of folks who absolutely adore Seche Vite. I can't stand it, it doesn't work for me at all. It shrinks every single manicure, and I don't want to have to thin the bottle halfway through. Same for Out The Door, which works great for many folks - it never dries on me! I had previously been relying on CND Air Dry, which is not billed as a quick dry top coat, but for me it dries relatively quickly, never thickens, levels out polish imperfections very well, and most importantly - no shrinkage! So it hit all of the major points I look for. However, I read a couple of reviews of Revlon Quick Dry Top Coat, and I decided to give it a whirl.
There were a couple of reasons I decided to try it out - when CND changed their bottle style, they also changed the brush. Air Dry now has kind of a moppy brush that's almost too big for my taste, I have less control. Secondly, the Revlon is roughly half the price of the CND!

So, does it work? For me, yes! It's self leveling - meaning, I rarely ever have to use a second top coat, and any imperfections in application get smoothed out. It dries quickly, no shrinkage, and hasn't thickened up at all! Even better, sometimes you can nab this at the drugstore on sale. So it's easy to find, you don't have to go to Ulta or order online! If you love CND Air Dry, and you have problems with Seche Vite and Out The Door like I do, this may be the solution you've been looking for.
Edited to add: This makes my polishes super shiny! I used it with my China Glaze Flying Dragon manicure, for reference. So it is very glossy!
