Meet: Sinful Colors Irish Green

Who knew French and Irish would go so well together =P

I have another Minty Pastel green for you guys! I picked up Irish Green from Sinful Colors, and thought it would look great with some white in it! So this is how it turned out! By the way, I'm not sure if I will ever try to wear Irish green by itself.. it's just not something I like, at least not at the moment, but who knows what will happen.. Anyway, I got so many complements on this minty green color, it sure stands out when you have it on your nails! I would be sporting this more often this summer!

Meet: 10 Professonal Nail Lacquer MoonLight

I love wearing nudes. When my nails gets long, this is the time I like to pull out all my nude colors and see which one gets picked. Most nude polishes that I have are sheer, and needs 5 coats to be completely opaque, but NOT this one! This is one of my favorite, and its probably the cheapest out of all my nudes. Funny how things works sometimes. I only have a couple of polishes by this brand, and I wish I grabbed more when they were still on sale. The formula for these polishes are all very nice. This one was especially creamy, and went on very smooth. The only thing that I have with these is the long stem of the brush, and if I don't wipe the excess polishes off, it will drip when I paint my nails. So be sure to wipe off the excess polish on the long stem when using this!

Trendy Tuesday: Neon Green!!

Summer time just screams for Neon!!! Mint Neon is also something I have been loving. Instead of going out to find the perfect color that I wanted, I mixed my own. I used Sally Hansen "Sea Breeze" + Sinful Colors "Neon Melon" and Wet n wild "French White". I mixed them in a small water bottle cap until I got the desired color and painted my nails with it! easy peasy!

Meet: Sinful Colors Savage

Such a cute color! This is such a fun color to wear during summer time! It goes on matte, which I did not expect it to since it's not really a neon color, but that's no problem! the formula on this is awesome, one coat will do the job just fine. With a layer or two of top coat. this thing becomes super shiny! Bought these sinful colors several weeks back at walgreen's during their 99cents sale, and it is definitely worth every penny!

Meet: Sinful Colors Mint Apple

This is Sinful Colors Mint Apple. I bought this color when it was really popular on the interwebs. I've seen swatches on several different blogs and thought I really liked the color. After using it the first time, I hated it! I'm not sure why, but I never wore it again after that until now. Since I'm on a teal kick I decide to give this another try. I have to say I don't really like it, but I don't hate it either. I do like the subtle shimmers in this that makes it different from all the other green/teal colors that I have, but I think it's just too dark for my taste. Maybe if it is a little lighter, I might like it better.

The formula on this was actually really good. It would have worked with only 2 coats, but I like to apply my polishes with thin coats, so I used 3 just to be safe.

These swatches were taking with artificial lighting. I had a busy day and forgot to take pictures, and since I got a little razor nick on my middle nail, and being the OCD that I am about my nails, I wanted to change polishes. So I just took some pictures with my make up mirror lighting. So I would say these are not that color accurate. In person it's a bit darker and greener.
