So I'm loving Shades by Barielle's Sugar Rush Summer 2009 nail polish collection! The collection includes six colors: Grape Escape, Cotton Candy, Sand-Al Chic, Lemondrops, Swizzle Stix and Decadence. They're free of formaldehyde, toluene, and DBP (dibutyl phthalate) and let me tell you- each shade speaks for itself!
I thought "Lemondrops" was the perfect shade of yellow, so I decided to swatch it for this post. It's a creme and it's highly pigmented. There was a little streaking, and after three coats I achieved the perfect finish.
My absolute favorites from the collection are, of course Lemondrops, as well as Swizzle Stix and Decadence.
Lemondrops dried very quickly, with high shine, and of course- I used a base and top coat with it. After 5 days, so far no chipping!
If you visit Barielle.com and click on a nail shade, you'll find an example of what the shade will look like on a light, medium and dark skin tone.
And for all the recessionistas out there- buy any 2 shades and you'll get one free!
This last photo is just me having fun with my camera. I loved looking at Lemondrops against my hot pink iPhone case....
Please let me know your thoughts! Love the shades?
