Bitzy Singsong

As someone obsessed with nail polish and in need of cheap, accessible supplies (remover, thinner, etc.), I am a big fan of Sally Beauty. I'm lucky to have a location 5-10 minutes from my home, so I make regular stops when it's time to replenish my nail-related accoutrements. When I'm in the shopping mood (which, let's be honest, is most of the time), I find myself perusing the vast selection of polishes they carry, and often leave the store having spent much more than intended.
However, there is a budget-friendly brand carried at Sally by the name of Bitzy. I'm pretty sure that this is their own in-house brand (meant to replace the old Sally Girl line), as I've never seen them anywhere else. At $2.99 a pop with a wide range of fun colors, I've collected a few of these in my travels. 

Singsong is a lovely vibrant lilac color with very fine, almost invisible shimmer. It's a little cooler-toned IRL, but this photo is still mostly accurate. Shown here in 3 coats. As much as I adore these Bitzy polish, opacity is a bit of an issue... I have yet to find one that doesn't need at least 3 coats. Though I really can't complain... they are rather cheap, and the opacity is their only fault.
The wear on these is weirdly good. I've been wearing this for 2 days now and there's only very slight tip wear. There are a couple of itty-bitty chips on my other hand, but nothing major. The longevity rivals that of higher-end brands like OPI... I can deal with having to add an extra coat if it means it'll stay on my nails for longer than a couple of days!

Here's a closeup of the bottle so you can see that stealth shimmer. The light has to be hitting it just right to show up, but when I do see that little sparkly glint, it makes me smile. Even if this didn't have any shimmer, I'd like this shade... I love a good purple, and this is certainly good!
That just about does it for today, but as a side note -- I've been really obsessed with candles lately (as in, I've literally purchased 15 of them in the past 2 weeks), and the one I've got going right now smells ah-maz-ing. White Strawberry Bellini from Yankee Candle. Go check it out. It's so fruity and fun!
Thanks so much for reading, and until next time... PEACE! xoxo
