Yet Another Sheer Duochrome (AKA: Sinful Let Me Go)

So promising in the bottle.. yet so disappointing on the nail.

Sinful- Bali Mist

I'm sorry, but I just can't take sheers.
No matter how many things I try sheers over, they always just bother me.
And alone... gross. I hate my naked nails, they're quite disgusting.

Sinful- Forget Now

I'm a Barbie girl.. in the Barbie World.
Life in plastic- it's fantastic!
You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere.
Imagination, life is your creation.

[Come on Barbie, let's go party. Oh Oh Oh Yeahh]

Sinful- Rich at Heart!

I love this color!
It goes on really well, and it's absolutely beautiful. In the shade, this is a subtle coffee brown with maybe a hint of the red shimmer. But in the sun, it turns into this amazing lit-from-within beauty. Gorgeous!

Sinful- Green Ocean

DSCF1494

I thought I'd try out my new bottle of Sinful-Green Ocean over a variety of different colors.
Or... three different colors.
I could have done more, but I'm awful at taking pics with more fingers that just my normal three.

From L-R: Green Ocean over Wnw Carribean Frost, Eggplant Frost, & Black Creme.

I don't like it at all over Eggplant Frost, personally.
However, black is stunning, and over a teal color is creates a really nice subtle effect you can't quite see in the picture.

I'm looking forward to trying it over different colors, like navy blue.

Mini 'Shrek Green' Comparison

Sorry, no actual shrek green here. Not from the Shrek collex. anyway.

DSCF1360


From L-R: Sinful Innocent, SH Grass Slipper, SH Lickety-Split Lime.

I love these colors :D
Innocent is my least favorite out of these three- it's way too yellow, extremely hard to apply, and has HORRIBLE staining. Neon green nails, anyone? However, Innocent is the most 'shrek' color in my opinion. I think my favorite is Lickety-Split Lime, but I'm not sure. It definitely had the best application out of the three, and without a doubt the best brush. I love the insta-dri brushes.

I really love comparison pics, but I don't have many to compare. Tell me if you know of one you want to see.

NOTD: Sinful- Fiji & Let's Talk

I wish I did bolder stuff with my nails. I rarely use my konad or do any variations- I'm a one color per mani type of girl. But today I decided to change it up and alternate two of my untried colors- Fiji, a somewhat dusty lavender shimmer, and Let's Talk, a blue-based purple glowmonster that basically screams "GORGEOUS" at every possible moment.

I love these colors.
I've been told purple looks good on me due to my tan skin and brown hair/eyes. I don't know about that, but I do love purple. This is why:

My index finger looks all funky and dry in this pic, but it (amazingly) was the most color accurate. However, this is hardly color accurate at all. Let's Talk is on my middle finger, with Fiji on either side. Purples are the swatcher's nightmare- this picture shows both colors as very blue, while in reality they are both EXTREMELY purple. This is two coats Let's Talk, and three coats Fiji (it's quite sheer).

Hooray for untrieds!

NOTD: Sinful- Tapping Nails

It's about time I posted again!
Today, I bring you an amazing color from my new (and old) obsession. I believe Sinful is what first got me into nail polish- the range of colors and and the quality for such a low price makes me feel pretty special. I'd say I have about 25-30 Sinful polishes.  But right now, the main reason I'm obsessed with SInful is because they introduced me to an orange I can like AND wear.

I'll admit, I'm not an orange gal. I never have been. In fact, my mom has a home video of me begging to change my halloween costume from a pumpkin to a fairy- not because dressing up as a pumpkin at age five was a tad odd, but because the costume was orange. Yuck.

But, without further ado, may I present you...

Tapping Nails!
This isn't exactly color accurate. The real  color is a tad darker and redder, but does have the amazing lit-from-within glowiness I tried to capture in this picture. This is two coats with one coat SV on top (I need to get a basecoat- any recs?) If you can believe it, this is pre-cleanup. I've really been trying to improve my application, and I think it's working! I know you guys inwardly groan everytime I post swatch pics due to my mess that I call cuticles, but I'm working on it!

Have a nice day guys :)
