Barielle Summer Fun Collection

Today I have the new Summer Fun Collection from Barielle. This collection is a set of five summery creme polishes that are just perfect for summer. In typical Barielle fashion, all five are super easy to apply and wear well. I’m wearing two coats of polish in each photo.

First is Mint Ice Cream Cone which looks exactly like its namesake. A clean light mint creme polish and I wish I had brown glitter to make chocolate chips with. I really like this shade even though it makes my skin look more red.

Pink Flip Flops is a baby pink shade with blue undertones. This is super easy to apply and wears well.

Peach Popsicle is the lighter coral of the group, its a little darker than what I would consider peachy. It also looks better on me than a normal peach.

Ocean Breeze is a bright aqua shade. This is my favorite shade of the bunch.

Berry Go “Round is the bright coral in the collection. I am so loving corals in the summertime.

To me, this collection is the epitome of summer polishes. It may seem like a standard summer collection but that’s because it works. You have the bright corals, the pastels and the aquas that are so in season right now. Ocean Breeze is my favorite of this collection followed closely by Berry Go ‘Round.

Barielle Gotta Have Fate

Have you entered Barielle’s BFF Sweepstakes yet? If not, what are you waiting for? I was lucky enough to have Barielle send me a few shades and treatments to review for you guys. This is the first shade -Gotta Have Fate.

Gotta Have Fate is a great summer shade -a coral creme polish. I love shades like this! On me, Gotta Have Fate is more of an orange red coral but still beautiful.

I used two coats and topped it off with a Barielle top coat that I will be reviewing next week after my wear test.

Joe Fresh Coral

Earlier this month I did a swap with a Canadian friend and asked her to throw in some “cute springy polishes”. She sent me four amazingly springy cremes from Joe Fresh. When I was trying to decide on a polish color Coral caught my eye.

Coral is exactly what its name implies -a pink leaning coral shade of springy polishness. It applied decently -I had some trouble with leveling -definitely not a self leveler type of polish. It also dried like a matte so I use a top coat. I used two coats for the photos below.

Then I wanted to add a little bling to my Tuesday so I put a coat of Cult Nails Captivated on my ring fingers. What do you think?

 

OPI Cajun Shrimp

For today’s manicure I have OPI’s Cajun Shrimp from the Classics collection. Cajun is a perfect coral creme though it may be a bit more red leaning in certain lights. This is two coats but if you were more careful, you might be able to get away with one.
