From Left to Right: Grape Juice, Banana Split, Blueberry Muffin, Apple Pie, Strawberry Tart, Aqua Violet
I managed to snap these up in a 3 for 2 offer at Boots, which made them eve more irresistible to me! I thought I'd do a quick post of my first impressions of the Fruit Pastel Collection! Here's what they look like on the nail:
From Thumb to Pinky: Apple Pie, Grape Juice, Banana Split, Strawberry Tart, Blueberry Muffin
I love these polishes! The colours are perfect for spring (and of course Easter!). They smell beautiful and ever since I painted them I've been sat here sniffing my fingernails like a weirdo! Some of them smell stronger than others, I think the Strawberry Tart is definitely the best one, not only is it a pretty pink colour but it smells really sweet. Also they have cute little scratch and sniff stickers on the top of each bottle so you can get a cheeky whiff before you apply.
These polishes were fairly difficult to apply, I would definitely recommend using a white base coat underneath them (which I will try next time). They went opaque in three coats but I found it a struggle to apply! I'm sure I'll get better with practice.
Anyway despite the trouble I had with the application I am certainly in love with these polishes and I think EVERYONE should own at least one of them.
I really wanted these polishes not only because there all gorgeous but for the scents as well but as I already own all the Barry M Ice Creams, there really pretty much the same which is a bummer :p
ReplyDeleteI have such a large Models Own wishlist now, I need the neon polishes too! These look yummy on you Alyssia!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!! I really want these but it just says 'stock coming soon' online and I've not been able to get into town. Boo xx
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely! Could I ask how long they took to dry? I've never had great luck with pastels, I always seem to smudge them before they have time to dry! Your blog is great by the way! :)
