L.A. Colors - Colour Craze Swatches

It's been a while since my last post, only four days but that seems like such a long time to me. So I'm going to try and keep things more up to date on here.

Swatches from my Boyes bargains the other day:

Static Electricity - Two Coats

Atomic - Three coats, still a bit sheer

Power Outage - Three Coats

I love the formula on all these polishes although they're all kind of jelly-ish ( I don't think I've had my hands on a true Jelly yet). Atomic is a bit on the sheer side, but using slightly thicker coats you can get rid of that problem, and it doesn't effect drying time. Static Electricity gave by far, the best coverage.

These are all really gorgeous polishes, but I really love the violet flecks in Power Outage.

Mini Haul & Odd-Bling Leopard

Last week I took a trip with my parents to Chester-le-street (about half an hour drive I think) in hope of finding some nail goodies on the market there.

And I did, two very luminous (despite what the photo looks like) neon's from the market, and five others from Boyes. The market it's self was disappointing though very blah :(

It's a very rare occasion that I get to go to Boyes, I used to love Boyes as a kid, getting false nails and random makeup goodies, but that was when I was staying at the caravan with the family near Richmond, or visiting family in Northallerton / going to Darlington. I forgot how much I love that place!

On to the goodies :]]

L-R: Yssy - Name Is Unkown, Revlon - Minted, Color Craze - Power Outage, Yes Love - Neon Green,
Color Craze - Static Electricity, Rimmel - Milk Chocolate, Color Craze - Atomic

I picked the neon's up just for fun, and at 50p each I couldn't resist. From Boyes I first picked up the LA Color polishes and i wish i had gotten all the others they have by them. They're very jelly like in application and some don't cover my nail line too well with thin coats, but thicker coats aren't a drying problem. 

I wish I'd bought Revlon - Minted when I was lusting after a mint, though streaking can be tricky it's so so so much nicer than Collection 2000's Mint Mojo. Though I still like the colour.

Top Coat - China Glaze - no chip top coat

What you can't see in the photo is that there's violet shimmer throughout this polish - so pretty. The glitter that I pressed on when the Polish was tacky is actually quite a bright pink that flashes Lime green & sometimes Lilac.
