Sally Hansen ~ Say It Lycra Mean It

Sally Hansen ~ Say It Lycra Mean It

Bright orange crelly

This bright orange is from the Madelaine Poole-collection. It’s the only polish from the collection of six polishes that I have.

The formula is typical for a crelly. I used three coats for my manicure but the last coat was mostly for the camera. I would have left it at two coats if I hadn’t been a nail polish blogger. The drying time is good.

I made small dots down the middle of each nail. I used a burgundy shimmer and a golden glitter for the dots. The burgundy is “Star Gate To Heaven” from Anny, and the glitter is “Razzle Dazzle” from Essence.

Here’s the final manicure including topcoat.

I quite like this.

Here’s “Say It Lycra Mean It” alone; this is three coats and a layer of topcoat.

Trend It Up ~ #050

Trend It Up ~ #050

Sky blue with holographic microglitter

Here’s another beautiful polish from Trend It Up. I bought it in Germany recently.

The formula is really good and so is the coverage. I used two easy coats for full opacity and the drying time was good.

The stamp is from Moyou London’s stamping plate “Back to the 60s-04” and I stamped with a dark purple stamping polish from BornPrettyStore. It has a name but they haven’t stated it on the bottle and I honestly can’t be bothered to look it up, haha.

Here’s the final result including a layer of topcoat.

I really like the outcome of this.

Here’s #050 alone. This is two coats and no topcoat.

And this is the stuff I used.

I really like this little gem of a polish. The “Prisma Tip”-collection looks really awesome!

Number of coats: 2

Drying time: Really good

Finish: Crème with microglitter
Overall impression: Great polish, I love it

Buy again: yes

Classic, sexy red crème

I don’t buy many crème polishes but when I found this polish in a box of really cheap polishes, I knew it was too good to miss. I love reds!

The formula is great and so is the coverage. I used two coats for full opacity and the drying time was good.

I added a shimmer gradient. I used a shimmer topper from Catrice called “Keep Me, I’m Cute” and a striper brush to apply the shimmer.

I topped it all with topcoat and this is my final result:

I love this shimmer, it’s like little diamonds on my nails!

This is “Adam Said “It’s New Year’s, Eve”” on its own; two coats and no topcoat.

I love that red crème, it’s absolutely gorgeous. And the shimmer topper is more than amazing. Wow!

Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Good

Finish: Crème and shimmer
Overall impression: Great polishes, both of them

Buy again: Yes to both
