Rescue Beauty Lounge - Bangin

Hey everyone! How was your weekend? I had a super lazy weekend, which was a nice change. I got to do a whole bunch of swatching yesterday so now I have stuff to post for the rest of the week! Yay!

Today I'm showing you Bangin by Rescue Beauty Lounge which was from the Spring 2010 collection. Bangin is a super bright coral red cream.  The formula was a little on the thin side, so I still had slight VNL after two coats, but it wasn't a deal breaker. I don't wear colours like this all that often, but this is  really gorgeous! For some reason, red nails remind me of going to the nail salon with my mum as a little girl and sitting there while she had he acrylics done. I can't even remember if she wore red nail polish, but every time I wear red polish I think of that!



Now you will have to excuse my cuticles in these photos. I took these pics about a week and half ago when my cuticles were ragged from the cold weather. Apart from showing you the colour, the other reason I wanted to post the pics was because I had a different nail shape in them. Should I use this nail shape again or stick with my square nails? I feel like I want a more natural shape, but I also feel like my nails and fingers look longer with square nails. I am so ridiculously undecided about it I thought I would ask you guys! For a good example of me with square nails, check out this post.

Let me know what you think in the comments!

    I am wearing that polish right now and I love it. It's so crazy red. It looks a little plastic on the nail. Cool. :)

    I like this shape a lot better, it suits your hands and fingers much better, in my opinion.

    I love this color, it's gorgeous. And I think that kind of color looks better with this nail shape. I prefer this nail shape in general too ;)

    I quite like that shape, but I do prefer the square shape. More rounded nails do look more natural, though. Either way, your nails always look pretty! xx

    I´ve got 360 and Diddy Mow and I am going to buy this, too! These reds are pretty wearable for me...

    This shape is classy and Bangin is my favorite red polish (with Illamasqua Ruthless)
