Zoya Reagan

My very last Zoya polish to share! This is Zoya Reagan. Reagan is a beautiful berry pink cream. Actually, if you have Revlon's Raspberry Pie Lip Butter, that's exactly what Reagan looks like. I'm surprised at how fantastically spring like this feels, considering it's not a pastel.  Not the most easy to work with formula but really not that bad either. This is two coats plus my trusty Insta Dri top coat. Normally I'm not one for pinks, but I'm so so happy with this color. It just makes me feel all bright and cheery inside!
I hope my swatches gave you some ideas of what you'd like to pick up from Zoya. I don't purchase from them very often but there are always at least a few on my lemmings list.

Color Club Halo-Graphic

Another beautiful Color Club holographic polish! After I wore the first one, I knew I needed some more. So I picked this one up and I'm surprised that the displays have been mostly full when I see them (mind you, that was mid March so I'm not sure if they are still around Meijer stores). This is Halo-Graphic. It's hard to tell in the fluorescent lighting in the store if this was the purple or the pink of the collection but it's definitely pink. You can see the difference between the pointer and the pinky, how much this color can vary. Two easy coats and I'm still absolutely in love with this formula.
I'm hoping these kill any lemmings for the China Glaze holographics coming out this summer. The Color Clubs look like lighter, less intense colors than the China Glaze but I paid $6.99 plus tax for this and the CG are supposed to be $10! Anyone going to be hunting for those?

China Glaze Dance Baby

Continuing on with Electropop, this is Dance Baby. It's a pepto pink. Three coats, OPI base coat and top coat. It was a little slow drying (that dent in my middle finger being evidence) but overall an easy to work with formula. I like it but it makes me wonder how many pinks I have like this. I will have to do a pink comparison eventually. I don't have much to say about it. It's nice but like I said, it seems like I have a lot of these colors.
I'd like to come up with something to do, some way to celebrate when I have finally swatched half my stash. Some way to mix things up. I have no ideas so let me know if you have one.

China Glaze Heli-Yum

My last random project polish! This mini polish project was fun and everything but it made me want to make my own picks. And no pinks or reds for a while. So this is Heli-Yum! It's a deep fuchsia color, a lot darker in real life than what's coming across in this picture. I'm enjoying this color. It's pretty basic but it feels summery and looks so glam. Two coats with two coats of OPI top coat. I hadn't been enjoying my OPI topcoat so I took it upon myself to do a little experiment. I cleaned the neck of the bottle very well, because that was bugging the crap out of me and then I added at least two full droppers of Seche Restore to it. It made it much thinner but I feel like it's much easier to work with and two coats are like armor over my polish. Not as glossy as Seche Vite but oh well.

OPI Sparrow Me the Drama

Continuing with my friends and family picks, this is Sparrow Me the Drama. My boyfriend picked this one and I wasn't sure he was going to like it on my nails but he actually did. It's a blue based bubblegum pink from the Pirates of the Caribbean collection that came out last year. It took three coats and even then I'm not sure it's completely even. I think I'm going to try comparing this to OPI Shorts Story because it seems very similar. Honestly, if I ever feel the need to purge my collection, I think this one would be on the way out. I like it fine enough but it doesn't wow me and it's a fairly basic color. Up next is my twin sister's pick and I'm super excited!
