Good morning! It's only been since Wednesday since my last post, but it feels like forever! I have a little package I want to show you guys, but first...I want to welcome new readers who have joined me here :) The "Followers to Friends" blog hop that began on 08/08/12 was amazing! Thank you again Sherry and Sylvia for starting this! Remember to check our their blogs every Wednesday for their "Followers to Friends" blog party! Second, I want to apologize for my lack of visiting blogs. I'm usually pretty good about keeping up with fellow bloggers' posts, but this week has been a bit hectic and I just wanted to let you guys know I will be catching up on posts soon because I always love visiting you all! :)
Now on to my little package...
I first saw Lime Crime Nail Polish (affiliate link) on Nailed It's blog here and I fell in love with the colors! (Check out her post if you want to see awesome swatches of them!) I was on a "no buying nail polish" binge for a while, but I ended up purchasing 4 of the 7 colors...I just couldn't resist!
A couple weeks ago they arrived beautifully packaged:
Below are swatches of all 4. I also applied a matte coat on Peaches ♥ Cream, Pastelchio, and Lavendairy. I didn't apply the matte coat over Parfait Day because I had used that in the Cotton Candy Mani post.
I really loved the color pay off from these polishes and only needed 2 coats. The only thing slightly negative about the polishes was the formula. It was a little thick than I would have liked, but it wan't impossible to work with. What do you guys think of these colors?
I hope you all are enjoying your weekend!
Wow, love the packaging! Really love the purple x
ReplyDeleteI really love the packaging too! I was almost sad to recycle the box lol
DeleteOh, they look so pretty!! I was going to buy some LimeCrime too but they don't ship outside the US :D
ReplyDeleteOh no! Well, let me know if you want to buy through me and I can send them to you :D
DeleteFun colors!
ReplyDeleteMost definitely! :D
DeleteLovely colors! They look beautiful on your nails!
ReplyDeleteThey really are! Aw thanks so much :D
DeleteGreat colors!!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more! :D
Deletethese are lovely! what matte top coat do you use?
ReplyDeleteThey are! Ooops forgot to mention that. I used Essie's Matte About You :D
Deletejust ordered mine!
ReplyDeleteYay! lol can't wait to see! :D
DeleteAww, I'm getting most of them soon too, can't wait - thanks for these great swatches - I especially look forward to Pastelchio :)

It really is! I think it's one of my favorites :D
DeleteJust awesome!
ReplyDeleteTotally! :D
DeleteI don't think I could wear these colors, but I would buy them anyway cause they look so pretty! Or maybe if I wore them it would be to the beach, or in some beach town. They remind me of Tybee Island in Georgia, a cute beach town that had these colors everywhere. The packaging is so cute, I even love the box!
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks again for co-hosting! (:
lol! You're so funny, Sherry! They really are pretty! Oooh that beach town must be uber pretty! :D
Delete<3
I love all of the colours you chose! I'm tempted to buy the whole collection, they look like the perfect set of staple pastels *o*
ReplyDeleteThanks, Brittney! lol I was tempted to buy them all too lol. They really are the perfect staple set! :D
DeleteThe packaging looks absoultely beautiful but the color looks a little dull. Is it just the picture that is making it look this way or maybe thats how the polish is supposed to look???? BTW I love your blog. First time visitor!

lol it might be the lighting or it might be because I didn't apply top coat to any of them except for Parfait Day. Maybe that's why...and then I also used a matte top coat over them afterwards...that could play a part too hehe.
DeleteAw thanks and thank you for visiting! :D
I see. Well, that makes total sense then! Thanks for the reply :)
DeleteHehe my pleasure! Thanks for dropping by! :D
DeleteThe colors are absolutely lovely. What is a Matte Coat? Is that something new? I never do my own nails, I always go to the shop. I've been getting them done so long that I feel funny without them. Are these your natural nails? They look so strong.

They really are. Hmm a matte coat is a top coat that makes the polish look matte, with no shine. It's not too new. I think it's been around for a few years now. Yes, my nails are natural :) Thanks so much! I try to keep them in good shape :)
DeleteVery very cute and loving the packages and the colors!! your natural nails are also fab :)
ReplyDeleteI really love the packaging too! Thanks! :D
DeleteThese are such candy fun colours! I wanted to order, but I don't think they were shipping nail polish to Canada at the time. Their packaging is always so nice and inviting that it makes you want to wear all of the colours at once!
ReplyDeleteThey really are! Aw hopefully their shipping options become more open! The packaging is definitely inviting! It makes me want to check out other products they have :)
DeletePastelchio makes me want pistachio ice cream. mmmm...
ReplyDeleteMmmm that sounds good right now...
DeleteThese colors are so pretty and I love the packaging!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering where you had been, I'm glad you're back and hopefully things are less hectic! ♥
I can't agree more with you, Christa!
Deletelol! I've also been a little behind on the 30 day challenge on Instagram! Hehe so many things, so little time! Thank you!! I hope things are less hectic this week too :D
I have eczema so unfortunately I can't wear nail polish *sigh* but I love the matte look over the glossy one. It's different I will have to check this out because my sister loves nail polish!
ReplyDeleteOh no :( I love the matte look too. Yay I hope your sister likes it then! :D
DeleteThey all just look so yummy! Especially that green! ^.^
ReplyDeletelol they really do! :D
