A Few Comparisons - Cobalt Blues and Sage Greens

What's up friends? I had a few requests to do some comparisons on a couple polishes I've reviewed recently so I thought I'd throw 'em at ya today!

First is a comparison of some cobalt blue crèmes, motivated by my latest Rescue Beauty Lounge post. On my pointer finger is two coats of Nails Inc. Baker Street, on my middle finger is one coat of Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Pacific Blue (original formula), on my ring finger is two coats of Rescue Beauty Lounge All About Yves, and on my pinky is two coats of KBShimmer Low and Be Bold. If I was smart I should've switched my pointer and middle so this would've been an ombre ;) The closest color to All About Yves is probably Baker Street, but it's more of a crème and AAY is more jellyish. These all have amazing formulas. I can't pick one, I am glad I have them all.

Next is comparisons of some sage green shimmery/glittery polishes, prompted by my post on Illamasqua Melange. It's harder to get in the US now so people were asking about possible dupes. Sadly, there are none to be found here. On my pointer and pinky nails I have two coats of Illamasqua Melange, on my middle finger is two coats of discontinued Rescue Beauty Lounge Halcyon, and on my ring finger is two coats of Butter London Two Fingered Salute. I was actually surprised by how different these all are! I, again, love them all and can't pick a favorite.

If you were wondering about dupe possibilities or how these polishes compared to each other, I hope these helped you out! Love ya and we'll be together again soon :)

Nails Inc. - Baker Street

Hi friends! Today I have for you a polish that I got more compliments on the day I wore it than I have on one in a long time. Most people who know me tend to recognize my finger flair, but there are those who are just never going to care as much. This is one that I swear 80% of the people I came around that day asked me what I was wearing. The color is Nails Inc. Baker Street. It really was on trend this year, especially after Beyonce was seen sporting the color after the birth of her child, fittingly named Blue haha.

This one is a buttery crème that practically applies itself, in a rich jewel tone cobalt blue. And it is BRIGHT! I really adore this. I got the "Crystal Colour" version with the jeweled top because it was on sale on Sephora.com, otherwise I would've gotten the regular one. But I have to say, the glamour girl in me just ooh'd and ahh'd when I saw the crystals! This swatch is two coats. Amazing. Must have.

Nails Inc. Neon and Nude Collection

Hi there and hello :D I hope your April is off to a great start. Today I have a collection from Nails Inc. London to show you, a set of mini polishes in shades of Nude and Neon! I have only owned one Nails Inc. polish in my life, and it was an older one I got from a blog sale. So needless to say, I was stoked to be able to try these out.

Portobello is my favorite of the collection,  it's a super shiny neon orange-coral jelly crème. This is three coats. The tiny lid and brush are a bit tough to manipulate but it wasn't terribly difficult.

Porchester Square is described as a "muted mushroom". It's a lovely pale grey crème that I find to be really flattering. This is two coats.

Notting Hill Gate is a gorgeous neon pink. I really adore neons and this is truly a stunning one. This is three coats.

Nails Inc. describes Jermyn Street as the "perfect taupe". It seems a bit darker than I'd expect and almost looks purple tinted. This is two coats.

Here is the last neon, Westbourne Grove. It's an orangey yellow bright, kind of along the lines of China Glaze's Sun Worshiper. I like this one very much as well, it's fun and unexpected. This is three coats.

Cadogan Square is the last of this collection. It's a "classic camel" color, it reminds me of a luxe trench coat. Two coats on this guy.

Hope you enjoyed this review :) You can pick up this collection on NailsInc.com for £22.00 or on Sephora.com for $25.
