Hula Polish: Wahine Collection

March 11, 2016 by Lisa Grable 8 Comments

I love expressing myself with manicures (you can check out my weekly creations on Instagram!) I decided to try the Wahine collection from Hula Polish. I love the results!

A review of the Wahine Collection from Hula Polish. Tips for doing your own manicure!

Instructions

  • I file my nails while they are still polished, before I remove and prepare for the next manicure. I use a glass file, which never wears out! After getting the shape right, I lightly file the tip of each nail from the top at a 45-degree-angle, kind of thinning out the tip of the nail.glass nail file
  • Use a basecoat. After painting each nail, go back and paint the back side of any fingertip that shows above your finger. My favorites are Nail Tek II, CND Stickey, and Nubar.nail base coats
  • I decided to do a “skittles” treatment with these 5 polishes. I painted two nails each in the colors.
  • Finally, use a topcoat. My favorites are Seche Vite and Poshe.top coats for nail polish

I recommend this polish. It lasted more than 7 days with very minimal chipping and virtually no shrinkage. You should probably use 3 coats with Hula Hooper and Coconut Cutie. My favorite colors are Hibiscus Honey and Maui Mermaid. And of course these colors go very well with my Aloha print clothes!

    Nice to “see” you, Aleana! Doing a mani yourself takes time, but I do think I save money and time. The bottles of base coat and top coat last a long time, so the biggest expense is if you collect bottles of polish colors like me!

    I had no idea that filing the ends of your nails thinner is how so many women get that nice look. I am definitely going to start trying that. These look professionally done and now I know how to get that look for half the price!

    I love those colors! Very nice. The Posh topcoat you recommended has helped me. I also love the brittle nail solution. With this post I learned to file my nails with my old polish on!

      Michelle, I think you need this collection for any beach/Florida/Disney adventures. They remind me of sherbet and colors in a really nice beach boutique!

      So sweet, Amy! It sure does relax me to spend the time each week. It’s a tiny artistic endeavor!
