I did manage to get a few swatches of my Nyx Girls Polishes done. Even if Nick was complaining that I was letting too much light in. Not that there was much light by the time I was able to take pictures.

Sour Lime |
Sour Lime is a rather sheer and very sour looking slimey lime green. Well it's green in the bottle then looks more yellow toned on my nails. I think if I'm in the mood for a sour mani I'll apply Sour Lime over China Glaze Electric Pineapple. Sour Lime dries slightly bumpy, so really needs a top coat. If you look closely you can see the little glitters that dry bumpy.

Emerald Forest |
Oh Emerald Forest you are divine! So sparkly and pretty. I wonder how you compare to Zoya Ivanka, but I was too lazy to get Ivanka from my room. I needed three coats for shimmery awesome green nails.

Boho |
I wasn't sure I would like Boho. In the bottle it looks frosty paled green. I was worried it would be streaky and gross. Boho had a thin shimmery formulae, so while it looks frosty, it's not. Look mum, no streaks! I needed three coats to cover. Boho is growing on me.

Hunter Green |
Murkier and greyer than my picture. My pictures make Hunter Green appear very dark but it is most definitely a murky greyed green. Ok it's still dark, but not quite as dark? I used two coats. Hunter Green is a very awesome, not your usual green.

Alaskan Wild |
So there's probably a hundred dupes out there for Alaskan Wild. It's green. It's also a very nice jelly. I used three coats and lost some of the jellyness, but at two coats it's most definitely a jelly. I bought Alaskan Wild to use as a base to darken Emerald Forest so when I try that out I'll post pictures!

Algae |
One of my all time favourite polishes. Two coats and stunningly awesome.
Wow, I'm really digging Hunter Green and Alaskan Wild! I wish I could stumble upon a beauty supply store near me and get these cheap! :)
ReplyDeleteEmerald Forest, Alaskan Wild, and Algae are so pretty! I got Emerald Forest during that Cherry Culture sale and I'm glad I did after seeing your swatch of it.
