Brillant Blue


Brilliant Blue

 

Hi there

 

Today is the turn of blue nail polish in my collection posts. I have six polishes to talk about so let’s get started.

 

Essie after school boy blazer; a dark navy almost black cream polish. This polish came out in the autumn 2013 collection. This was my first blue polish, I wasn’t sure if I would like blue polishes so I thought this would be a good one to start with. This is a great formula from Essie being opaque in just 1 coat.

 

Elf sea escape; a dark navy almost black with a ton of blue/green shimmer. This polish is a mini and came as part of a nail set called 14pc jewel nail cube. The shimmer is only visible in direct sunlight and also is a 1 coater. I wore this polish with an accent nail of Ciate metallic silver caviar pearls.

 

Zoya nyx; a pale blue pixie dust (texture polish) with silver shimmer. This polish came out in the pixie dust spring 2013 collection. I love pixie dust they look so amazing on your nails and have to be my favourite texture polishes. To keep that texture this polish requires no topcoat.

 

Zoya neve; a deep royal blue with blue shimmer. This polish was part of the satin autumn collection of 2013. This polish looks amazing on its own, I am planning to wear it with Zoya Monet topcoat soon.

 

China Glaze what a pansy; a blue/purple cream. This polish was part of this year’s city flourish collection. This is a great spring/summer nail polish colour and would look amazing with a floral stamping manicure.

 

Sally Hansen mermaid’s tale; a blue gelly base with green and blue chucky glitters. This polish would be better used as a topper over any other polish, because it would take too many coats to become opaque. It is said to be a dupe for Deborah Lippmann’s across the universe.

 

That is my blue nail polish collection, look out for greens next.

Mellow Yellow


Mellow Yellow

 

Hi there

 

Today I am continuing my nail polish collection by colour. Today is yellow, I don’t have many yellow polishes, but they are all different.

 

China Glaze metro pollen-tin; is a bright yellow/orange colour from this year’s city flourish collection. This dries to a matte finish and could be classed as a neon as it look bright with a white polish base. Yellows are notorious for not having great formulas, and this is no exception but it will look better with 2 coats. This would look great as a base to a bronze leaf stamping manicure.

 

Deborah Lippmann walking on sunshine: a bright yellow cream polish. I believe all Deborah Lippmann polishes are named after songs. Again this polish is a bit streaky but it sorts itself out with 2 coats.

 

Topshop crack your code; is a sheer yellow with white speckles. I would class this as a gelly polish. This polish could be wore on its own (which would require three to four coats) or over any other polish.

 

Revlon buttercup; a pale pastel yellow cream polish. This polish is a one coat polish and is the best formula in a yellow polish colour. Unfortunately this polish is being discontinued along with the rest of the colour stay line. So if you want it grab it now.

 

That’s my yellow nail polish collection, look out for blues next.
