Sally Hansen Velvet Texture 'Deluxe' Swatch and Review

-

Hey guys! Here I am again with another swatch and review! I had quite a journey to get ahold of this polish. Yesterday I missed the postman, so I had to collect the parcel at the post-office. I left in glee with my package filled with nail polish but on the way out one of my toes got smushed by the super heavy door and started bleeding! It hurt pretty bad for a while there, but fortunately it feels a lot better now! I was equally horrified when I opened my package to find that my seven nail polished had been squished into one parcel without any bubble wrap or other protective substance! But anyway, the polishes were in tact and ready to be swatched! So, here it is, Sally Hansen Delux from the Velvet Texture range.

The polish is a ultra dark blue colour which almost looks like black. It is a bit of a stainer on the cuticles. The texture on the polish is very light. It doesn't actually feel like velvet but it does look like velvet. I love the way it looks on the nail, it's very luxurious, and it does have a very velvety look.


The brush is a little smaller than the wide paddle brush that's on the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure polishes and the Miracle Gel polishes. It's also a different in shape to the Xtreme wear polishes, but it's about that size. The formula is a good, and the polish is opaque in two coats. One thing that it did notice about this polish is that after about a day I started getting a fair amount of wear on the tip, so I'm not sure how long it would last.


I like that the texture of the polish matches the label front of the bottle, it's super cool!



All in all, I loved the way that the polish looked on the nail. I'm a huge fan of all of the elements of this polish, from the colour to the texture to the way it looked. If your not a fan of textured polishes, you may still like this one, since the texture is very light. What do you guys think? Does it look like velvet? What kind of textured polishes do you like? Let me know what you think in the comments!
May your nails be good, 
Gabby

Sinful Colours New Shades 2019 Full Collection Swatch and Review

Helloooo! Helloooo! Heloooo! Oh my! I am really very, very excited to present to you all a new collection swatch and review from Sinful Colours! This is the new core collection from Sinful Colours for 2019, which consists of 8 nail polishes. The slightly oddity here is that there are two nail polishes that I haven't seen in the other collection reviews; these being Holo Back and All Jokes Acia'd. It's possible that they are exclusive to Australia or maybe were released a little later than the rest of the collection? Those are my running theories, but if anyone knows please share your awesome information down below in the comments section! Y'know, when I do a collection review I never know which polish to start with! Do I choose something that works well as a representation of the overall collection? Do I pick my favourite or least favourite? Do I just pick whichever swatch photo I see first? Yep, the last one, it's always the last one, otherwise I'll never choos

Sinful Colors Vanessa Hudgens Winter Collection, Full Collection Review

Hello everybody! I'm so very excited today because we will be looking at the Sinful Colors Vanessa Hudgens collaboration collection for winter! I just adore the Sinful Colors/Vanessa Hudgens collaboration polishes, they are some of my favourite polishes in my collection, so my expectations for this collection were very high (almost as high as my excitement levels!). This is a 12 piece collection (the last collection aka the Jungle Beat collection only had 8 polishes but the Festival collection also had 12, just a fun little fact) and every single one of them is shimmer polish; not a single creme in sight! This differs from the the other collaborations, which all had at least a few cremes thrown in there. But, I'm not too upset about that; I LOVE shimmer polishes, and after swatching a collection that was pretty much completely made up of creme polishes (none other than the Sinful Colors New Shades collection), I am happy to be swatching these shimmery beauties! Oh! And, before

Sinful Colors Vanessa Hudgens Jungle Beat Collection Swatch and Review

Hello everybody! Today is a very, very, very exciting day for this blog because this is my first ever swatch and review of a collection! I was super pumped when I started seeing polishes from the Vanessa Hudgens collection around October, and picked up the four polishes that were available. When I brought my polishes home and looked them up, I was only able to find two of them on the Sinful Colors website, which were apart of the festival collection. I only found a swatch or two of the other polishes that I picked up and no mention of them from SC on their website. As time went by and more Vanessa Hudgens polishes started popping up, I noticed the same thing happening; these polishes didn't seem to exist! It was not until I saw a display at a Priceline store that I rarely visited that it finally made sense; these polishes must have been from a separate collection which had yet to be announced. And so, this is how I came to realise these were apart of the 'jungle bea
