Mud 'Pinkalot' Pink Nail Polish Swatch and Review

-
Hi everyone! I'm back today with another swatch and review (yay!) to share with you all! For some reason in the winter pretty much all I feel like wearing on my nails is blue: blue, blue, blue, blue, blue! Lately I have been blue MAD! But, today we are looking at a pink polish with a fabulous name, that as a lover of pink nail polish I thoroughly approve of: Pinkalot by Mud. Now this polish is kind of an odd one, it kinda had me a little confused: it's matte-ish and neon-ish which is kinda weird. But hey! It's pink! It's got a cool name and it's by Mud so I am excited to get into the review!


Here we have this gorgeous hot pink shade that, I tell you, I fell in love with at first sight. It's such a pretty bright colour, so bright that I think it's almost neon, but not quite. It's just got a little pinch of neon. Just a tad. It's a great shade if you want something neon, but not super duper in your face bright. I don't know that I have really seen anything like this before as well, oh, oh! I wonder what it would look like over a white base? Would it become a proper neon? Neon-ish polishes sure are interesting!


Formula wise, I was really kind of very confused. The formula was pretty good- just a little patchy requiring three coats for full opacity. What confused me was, I put a coat of this on my nails and when I looked down, it was matte! I was not expecting that- not at all! I was so excited, I thought 'Oh how interesting- a matte-ish neon-ish pink polish'! But, when I finished the third coat, the finish was for some reason not really matte, it was a matte finish mystery.


Overall, I thought this was such a cool (but a little confusing) nail polish! This is the second nail polish from Mud that I have tried and overall I am very impressed with this brand- I hope to see more pretty pink, matte-ish, neon- ish polishes from them someday (actually, I really just want to see more neon-ish matte-ish pink polishes in general).
May your nails be good

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 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...

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 ...
