No this isn't a variation on the old fairy tale! After I fell in love with Sinful Colors 'Sweet Nothing' which you can see in situ here - I returned to the scene of the crime with my girl whilst the 'buy one get one half price' was on at Boots and this was the result...
Sinful Colors in Cinderella and Unicorn ....
Unicorn just called to me - I never thought I'd work a creamy/pastel yellow at my age but I'm loving it.! My girl um'd and ahh'd (she is her mother's daughter) at the various options and finally settled on Cinderella - pale blue with the teeniest tiniest bit of shimmer to it. Perfect for a little girl - or even an old one for that matter - I have no shame!
Now as you may be able to see from Cinderella, these paler Sinful Colors apply in quite a thin streaky fashion - my daughter has two coats on (she got bored) whilst I have three (good job it didn't take too long to dry) - this gave me better coverage and longevity. I was quite impressed with nearly three days of being 'chipless' (with base and topcoat) - it was a weekend and I'd cooked fajitas on the Saturday night and then a Sunday dinner the day after (obviously)!
So ... I keep promising myself I will try one of the more expensive polishes one of these days and I will. For now though - as these are £1.99 each - let's just say I may well be delving into this range again in the not too distant future!
Have you tried Sinful Colors yet?

These are so pretty! I love that blue, and I've been wearing a lot of light blues like that this summer! My favorite right now is Mary Kay Blue Lotus, but I really want to try out this sinful colors polish!

DeleteThese colours are so tempting though! I keep meaning to look when I'm in town then get distracted by other things ( children usually) !! £1.99 is a great price. XX
ReplyDeleteTell me about it Claire! £1.99 is a great price - I'll go back and take my two distractions with me! xx

DeleteNo. But I see colours like this on everyone else and it looks so summery and lovely but when I try something different which is not grey,navy or khaki - I feel wrong. I've just done purple on my toes, painted lovely but they look like alien toes to me so I have to re-do at the next convenient moment. It's all in my head I know.
ReplyDeleteJust a case of getting used to it I guess Sue - but at the end of the day it's whatever floats your own boat! :)
DeleteYes I have Unicorn as well, great colour. They're fantastic for the price too xx
ReplyDeleteTbey are a good price Gail and I love the colour! Great minds and all! xx
