Sinful Colors: Irish Green and Green Ocean

    I am ashamed. St. Patty's Day has come and gone and I did not post a mani or even a review. I am Irish! I can even speak Irish! Well..... not well, but enough. I picked up two polishes in early March that I have been meaning to post  a review of, but I never got around to it. So here they are...2 days late.

First up we are going to discuss Irish Green. This is a soft green jelly. Before we get to the pics I want to take a moment and say that the formula, is..so so. Okay more on that in a moment, now the pics.



Can you see how uneven the color is? My index finger and middle finger have a light one coat base of a sheer white to help   it pop. Didn't do much good. I prefer the look of this with out the base of white, but when in side the color resembles a dirty clover. Interesting color to say the least. But when you are outside....WOW! the dirty clover turns into a bright Kelly Green. The slight streaking I saw, on the fingers without the base coat, completely vanishes. I love the way this polish looks when I was outside. 


Now the next polish I have here for you is names Green Ocean. Now this is one of my new favorites. This a small green glitter. THAT HAS FLAKIES! The glitter reflects from silver to green or dark blue. The formula is rather thick and goopey on the brush, but when applied to the nail it seems to melt for a lack of a better word and makes the polish rather easy to spread. As with nearly all glitters it is rather rough with out a nice topcoat. So in all I love each of the polishes even with the fussiness of the Irish Green jelly. 





Well I hope you for give my horridness of not posting this before St. Patties Day.

Well Thats All For Now,
Peace,
Lady M
