Hello lovelies,

 

Barielle has recently announced that they are having another big sweepstakes on Facebook from 12th September....oh wait! That's today! Head over here to enter. I also got some Barielle polishes for review so today I'll spam your browser with colours!

 

Lemondrops - bright yellow creme. Let's start nice and bright, right? This warm sunflower yellow is definitely not boring! The formula was good and easy to apply and two coats were enough for full coverage. The drying time was average to fast so I helped it with topcoat.

Sweet Addiction - muted forest green creme. This polish was nothing less than perfection. Not because of the colour (this one doesn't excite me much) but because of the formula. It was so easy to apply and I am wearing just ONE thicker coat. It also dried fast.

Pink Flip-flops - light pink creme. This pink is pretty and girly, more like a spring pastel shade. It applied easy and I needed two coats for full coverage. The drying time was average to fast and I've applied topcoat.

Cosmic Kiss - medium/dark pink creme. My favourite kind of pink - darker shade that is feminine yet not too sweet. The formula was good and easy to apply and average drying. I've applied two coats and top coat.

Green Apple Chew - bright yellowish green creme. A very unusual and bright colour. It's not really my cup of tea but it is good colour if you want to shock people :) It applied quite well but dries very fast so I've had to work fast to avoid patches. Two coats were enough for full coverage.

Blue Capri - blue-purple creme. My camera didn't pick up the blurple (blue/purple) colour again so the pictures look like it's blue. In real life the colour is leaning heavily towards cool-toned purple. It applied well and the pigmentation was very good. I'm wearing two coats and topcoat. When I've applied topcoat the shade got darker.

So that was another Barielle swatch spam. I like the diversity of the shades Barielle offers and the formula in the past years' releases has been great. If you've missed some previous Barielle swatches, you can check them out here and here.

 

Barielle polishes can be be purchase at barielle.com and an in UK for example in TK Maxx stores.

Hello lovelies,

 

Hope you're all well! There were two new shades from SpaRitual Share collection waiting for me at home when I came from holiday. I wanted to try them both but couldn't decide which one I like best so I painted each hand with one shade :)

 

About the Share collection:Share represents the fall, where the season’s most cherished gifts are carefully crafted and come from the heart. It is a time to reconnect with one another in a positive and more fulfilling way ,” says SpaRitual founder, Shel Pink.

 

The Share Nail Lacquer Collection features timeless natural neutrals, shimmering copper, midnight blue, and deep red. Conversation, Reminisce, Midnight Stroll, From the Heart, Uncomplicated and Comfort are rich, uncomplicated colors that fall in step with a slower, more thoughtful pace.

From The Heart - vampy dark red jelly. Red vampy shades are one of my absolute favourites for A/W season. From The Heart has well-pigmented formula where two thicker coats provided very good coverage. It also applied easily and without patching. The drying time was average probably due to thicker coats. I've applied topcoat as well. It stains a bit - skin and nails so I needed to scrub my fingers with toothpaste & brush afterwards.

Midnight Stroll - dark indigo blue creme. I'm sorry to say that most of my photos don't show the true beauty of this shade. The camera made the Midnight Stroll look like blue when in fact it's a dark blue-purple. It very similar to Tip Top Kinfisher (which is hard to get). It applied flawlessly and is well-pigmented. I'm wearing two coats and topcoat.

The picture below has been colour-processed to give you a closer idea of the true colour. The rest of the pictures don't show the colour accurately.
