Color Club Disco Dress

Hi guys!
As I mentioned in my last post, I've been away travelling, but I got back last night and thought I'd show you the polish I wore while I was away. 
This is Color Club Disco Dress. I absolutely ADORE this polish! It is a dark purple that is very bright, yes an oxymoron deal with it. It's like a dark neon, it dries to a semi matte finish. 
I found this incredibly hard to photograph as they all turned out looking too blue!
If you google this polish all other swatches are too blue as well :(
This french post is the most colour accurate, but it looks a little tooo dark in her photos.

Here's my swatches anyway, but I highly recomend this polish!

Nubar Earth

Hi guys, today I thought I'd show you one of my favourite Nubar Polishes. Earth is from their Going Green collection and is often overlooked as Reclaim was also released at the same time. Anyway, Earth is an amazing green leaning teal with blue shimmers. It applies perfectly in two coats.

China Glaze Emerald Sparkle

Hi guys, super quick post today I'm sorry. I'm currently travelling :)
This is China Glaze Emerald Sparkle. It's a relitively hard to find polish, but it isn't going for rediculous prices on eBay like the OMG or Kaleidascope shades.
This is two easy coats.

It is extremely difficult to get this to photograph correctly, as it literally GLOWS and my camera cannot pick it up :(



My First Experience with OPI Black Spotted

Read on for my experience!

Darling Diva Polish: Ringer Swatch & Comparison

Hi guys, sorry I haven't been posting much lately I've been so busy aha.
Today I'm showing you an Indie polish by Darling Diva Polish. This is called Ringer, and is a supposed dupe for Max Factor's Fantasy Fire.
It's a sheer blurple jelly base with colour shifting pigments infused throughout. I layered one coat over China Glaze Gothic Lolita


Final picture is of Gothic Lolita by itself.

So onto a comparison!

By itself, both three coats.

One coat of each over black.

So ultimately I think this is a dupe, and in all honestly I like it BETTER! It has the same red to green shift as Max Factor Fantasy Fire and the same jelly base, but just more sheer. The bottle is a LOT larger than Fantasy Fire, as is the brush which makes Application a lot easier and more even. This polish also only costs $8 which is a lot cheeper than what you'll find Fantasy Fire for on eBay!

Thanks for Reading!

A-England St. George

Hi guys, sorry, long time no post, my internet connection has been down for what feels like forever aha. I finally spend the dreaded six hours to the ISP and got it fixed yay!
So today I'm going to show you a polish I wore a few days ago now ahaha

This is A-Englands St. George from their 2012 Ledgends collection. St. George is a gorgeous green leaning teal with a subtle holographic/prismatic effect. This applied amazingly in ONE coat.

I'm really upset I couldn't get a great photo of this :(
