Color Club - Wham! Pow!

I really need to learn to post earlier in the day! I am so exhausted I can't think of anything interesting to say! So apologies in advance for the waffling!

I saw Carli's swatch of Wham! Pow! the other day and developed a crazy lemming for it, only to realise I already had it in my Helmer!

So I put it on today and was blown away by how unbelievably bright this polish is! I'm quite tanned at the moment so I loved the way this polish looked with my skin colour! (Sydney just had its longest heat wave in 150 years of weather recording with temperatures over 103-106F every day for the past week!)

I only had to use two coats to get it nice and even (no white base underneath!) Like most other neons it dried to a semi matte finish so I used a coat of Poshe to make it nice and shiny.

First two photos are indoors with flash, last photo is in natural light, no flash.

Color Club - Pucci-licious

Craptastic swatch of the week! I was painting my nails while watching the Australian Rugby League grand final and my team, St George Dragons, were winning after being down at half time,  so I was a little excited..... and my nails reflect my level of excitement! :P 

Purely for my own pleasure, I have included a photo of the boys with their trophy! 


So anyway, Pucci-licious is an amazing colour, but it probably could have done with a third coat, which I didn't realise until I had taken the photos. It doesn't seem patchy when I look at my nails, but the camera tells a different story. 


Also, my camera just couldn't capture this purple creme accurately. My photos all came out too blue. It is definitely more purple... And being a neon, it dried to a matte/satin finish, but I added a coat of Seche Quick Dry because I'm not a fan of that satiny look... 

I should have done a red and white look to celebrate the mighty Dragons win! :P

Oh and I was being so demented after the win, I broke my thumb nail. Snapped it right off.. Check out the carnage! 


Thankfully Mr Thumb never makes it into my swatch photos... :P Hope you are all having a great weekend! x

Color Club - High Society

Hi all! Today I am wearing Color Club's High Society from the Rebel Debutante collection. It is the only colour I own from the collection, but after seeing this post today, I think I am going to buy the rest of them!

High Society falls into the taupe category, but it is significantly lighter than its other lusted after counterparts, being OPI's You Don't Know Jacques,  Chanel's Particuliere or Eyeko's Posh Polish. It also leans a little purple with my skintone, but I rather like that. In terms of application, this polish is fantastic and  only needed 2 coats. I also used a thin coat of Seche.

On a side note, my nails are finally getting back to a decent length! I just have to grow out the middle one a bit more and they will all be perfect! Hope I haven't jinxed it now :P
