My Spring Favourite Polishes for 2014!

Hello!

Today I'm going to share what I've been really liking this season.  Honestly it's been so cold in Toronto.  The snow has melted early April, but the temperature is still a bit chilly.  So the result is dark/winter clothes but bright nails.  Whatever works!

I realized that three out of the four colours have subtle shimmer.  It's something I look for, I guess?  Anyway, I apologize in advance because I don't have any on my nail pictures.  I have linked my previous posts.  Sometimes if I've done a post on a colour already, I don't always photograph my nails.  So even for some pictures that was pretty bad in the beginning, I don't have a re-do.  Sorry!


1. Essie Fashion Playground
This is a new colour and I wasn't sure if I would get it because of some reviews online about the streaky colour.  Yes it takes 3 coats but I really like how this turned out.  I just bought it and I really like how the mint comes off.  When I wore this, I even repaired my chips!  That is something I don't really do.  I was able to get a week (Sunday to Friday) wear but I did repair 2 chipped nails (pointer finger and pinky) and I added another coat of top coat on Wednesday.  I like this colour so much I am actually considering selling my other mint colours similar to this.

2. Essie Bikini So Teeny
This is one of my favourite polishes.  Sometimes I forget about it.  Enough so that I only recently made a post on it.  This is probably one of my most used bottles of polishes (I have a lot of polish).  What I like about it is the shimmer and it's a light/periwinkle blue.  This one is also a bit streaky, so I usually use 2-3 coats.

This is another favourite of mine.  It's one of those really periwinkle purples. There's fine shimmer in it.  It's very streaky, and a little runny but since I own it, I'm ok with it.  I like the other all look to it.  This one is opaque in 3 coats but the coats are thin, since the polish is a bit runny.  I can overlook that because I really love the colour.

4. Nicole by OPI Carnival Cotton Candy
The only colour on this list that does not have any fine shimmer!  Carnival Cotton Candy is a very bright bubblegum pink.  The formula is more thick compared to the other polishes I have listed.  I still like it even though it's difficult to work with as in it's thick but still leaves some patches.
