recent swatches

hi all!  i've been neglecting my blog lately since i have very little free time but i thought i'd share some recent polishes i've been enjoying!

Bourjois "Jaune Trendy" is a fantastic goldenrod-mustard yellow creme.  i was lucky to have this CP'ed for me by a European nailphile friend!  shown is 3 coats (it needs 2 plus a 3rd for streaks)

China Glaze "Zombie Zest" from the Halloween 2010 collection, a murky green foil.  possibly my favourite polish of all time.  shown is 3 coats.

Color Club "Best Dressed List" from the Spring 2010 Rebel Debutante collection.  a fleshy dark beige that was actually fairly flattering, to my surprise

Savvy "Sparkling Lavender" is a light blue shimmer with pink iridescence and holographic microglitter.  i think it's special!  apparently it's an older polish and i don't know much about it; i received it in a swap.

Sinful "Neptune" from the Spring 2011 Cast Away collection.  it's a cornflower blue shimmer, very pretty but not flattering on me (like most blues)

Zoya "Tanzy" from the Summer 2011 Sunshine Collection.  i got this in a Zoya promo after missing China Glaze "Orange Marmalade" (which i sold).  it's very pretty golden orange foil and slightly more opaque than "Orange Marmalade", but i don't see myself wearing it often

that's all for now...until next time, take care blog world!
