Green is the color

So yes, GREEN is one of my favorite nail polish color!! (in any form-shimmer, glitter, holo, flakies) I picked up these 3 shades from Sally Hansen SALON line at a local sale and I was very pleased with my haul =D
Sallly Hansen Salon-Project Runway               
                                   

 










  • A dark green (closet color match would be China Glaze Watermelon Rind) almost like a mix of dark British racing green and Pine green.
  • Tons and tons of golden shimmer in the mixture and I can't tell you how beautiful the shimmer looks...it shines at every angle and adds such a depth to the polish....love love love the shimmer!
  • Great application with a very formula, only down side :( is that the brush is really small or narrow and takes a couple extra strokes to get even coverage.
Base Coat- OPI Natural Nail base; 3 coats of project runway.
Top Coat of Seche Vite doesn't affect the shimmer one bit...yay !


Sally Hansen Salon Honeydew










  • Honey dew as the name says it...is a dewy Jade green.
  • 2 coats to be opaque but 3 coats really shows the color at its best.

Sally Hansen Salon Forsythia


Hmm how do I describe this color..it's a murky Yellow at its best or a dull Pear at its worst!
  • Takes 2 coats to go opaque and application was smooth.
  • A very subtle iridescent  white/pearly shimmer is in the bottle although it doesn't show on the nail.

Spring Time....NYX Lime SPARKLE!!




OHHMMGEE!! what a beautiful green perfect for spring times...love the effect, the sparkle and how dazzling it looks  =D

  • Sheer light green/lime jelly base with golden shimmer and very faint green glitter....Gorgeous darlin'.
  • Goes opaque with 3 generous coats but still slightly sheer which makes it brilliant.
  • Application was smooth with no streaking. 
  • Didn't chip for 5 days and only started to wear at the edges around day 5.
