Ulta Heirhead Swatch and Review

I've had Ulta Heirhead for a while now; I keep my Ulta polishes in the back of one of my Helmer drawers so they often get overlooked unfortunately.  I'm quite pleased with this polish however, so on to the swatches.

Heirhead is a basic bubblegum pink creme, which I can never have enough of anyways.  Shown here is three coats over Orly Bonder and Sealed with Out the Door.  The first two coats were a bit streaky but the third coat really evened it all out and made for a nice, shiny finish.




Formula on this one was average; no suprises, good or bad. I like the color though - it's brighter than I anticipated which makes it a little bit different from my other pinks.

Oopsie Daisies Fourth of July Polish - 1776

I struggled with whether or not to have this polish be in a white base or not, but I think the clear base for this polish really makes it versatile.  I particularly like it over navy blue, but it plays well with other shades as well!  This polish, inspired by the colors of the American Flag, is a clear based polish with various sizes of red, white and blue glitter in both matte and metallic finishes.

 


Photos below show one coat of 1776 over Sinful Colors New Wave, a navy blue creme. Over Orly Bonder and sealed with one coat of Out the Door.




One coat 1776 over White, Essie Queen of Hearts, Bruccie JT's Ocean Blue & Sinful Colors New Wave - 1 coat TC

1776 is available for a limited time now at the Oopsie Daisies Etsy Shop for $8.50!

Sinful Colors Sail La Vie Swatches

I went to Walgreens yesterday and saw the Sail La Vie Collection; I bought just a few of them, though.  This one is actually titled Sail La Vie as well.


Shown here is two coats over Orly Bonder and sealed with Out the Door.  Formula was great, as it is with most Sinful Colors creme polishes.  The first coat was streaky and I didn't think two coats would be enough.  I was impressed with how nicely the second coat leveled out and a third coat wasn't needed.
