China Glaze Four Leaf Clover, which is a very grass green GREEN, it’s very LOUD and it’s got me a lot of comments this week! I do like it, but I’m not sure it’s ‘me’. I loved the whole Up Up & Away collection and could have bought the whole lot; I think I have 4 so far.

China Glaze DV8, which is a gorgeous holographic blue. 

The left photo shows the polish inside my house, which shows the beautiful blueness but doesn’t show the holographic at all. 

I took the other one in the bright sunshine, and although it’s slightly blurred, it does show the green, yellow, and red flashes of the holographic.

Definitely something different for this week!

I can’t get a decent photo of this colour, but believe me when I say it’s the brightest spring blue creme ever. It is “Why Not” by Sinful Colors. It’s not a colour I would have chosen, but I was sent it by a friend and I actually really like it on my nails. It’s a gorgeous colour for the time of year, as today is a gorgeous blue sky full green spring kind of day!

It’s actually a touch darker than these pictures show, though.

Pepe’s Purple Passion by OPI This polish has a weird texture to it. It’s not a glitter, but it’s sort of chunky, you can see this slightly on the nail. Even with a coat of Seche Vite the texture remains. I like it, it’s kind of rubberised almost. And I love this colour! ~ Rebs

This is Notting Hill Gate by Nails Inc, a super bright cool-base pink, though I disagree that it’s truly ‘neon’. There are three coats in the photo and there’s still visible nail line, which is a bit frustrating. Still, it’s got a great pop and I like it. ~Stace

We were going out for my stepsister’s 17th birthday last night and I was planning to wear a navy blue dress with white dots. So I thought I’d do my nails to match!  The navy blue is a no brand bottle that looks like a Models Own bottle, that I got in a whole lot off eBay. The white is a shimmer white, so it’s showed up silver here. The dots aren’t perfect, but they’re good enough. All my family said how nice they looked :)  ~ Rebs

OPI Done Out In Deco, which is a beautiful lilac creme. I love the colour but it needed 4 coats, and it’s already chipped/shrank, which I find annoying.  ~ Rebs

Zoya Cheri, which is a gorgeous deep pink with a gold shimmer to it. This is not my usual type of colour at all, but I needed the pop because it’s been so wintry and dull here recently. I actually love it.  Formula was good, if a little runny. I could have coped with two coats but there was still some Visible Nail Line, so I added another.

Pink Friday from the OPI Nicki Minaj collection. This is far more ‘baby’ pink than all the press has made it look so far, and I think it might be a bit washed out for my tastes. It took three coats to get this level of opacity. ~Stace
