Nail polish

Nail polish audit – The Twelve:29

I wore and evaluated these twelve polishes from late April to mid June . Four by OPI, two by H&M Beauty and one each by Pahlish, Darling Diva, Illamasqua, Cirque, Zoya and Bourjois. In the beginning of this part of my makeup audit I chose polishes from a more mixed palette. Two blues, two reds, two greens etc. I am nearing the end of the project and I have a limited selection to audit left. So my focus in this instalment was to get through as many of the happy bright shades as possible with a few more subdues ones thrown in there for variation. It was spring after all..

Hell yes

H&M Beauty – Oriole
Cirque Colors – Sky Woman
OPI – OPI…Eurso Euro
Illamasqua – Raindrops
H&M Beauty – Orangeade
OPI – Berlin There Done That

Maybe

OPI – Guy Meets Gal-veston

This is such a juicy and squishy jelly shade. Love a jelly. But the shade is so very not me. The only reason to keep it as a ‘maybe’ is because it is in very good condition and objectively pretty. Maybe for nail art? Who knows.

Bourjois – Tangerine Fatal (33)

Another nice squishy shade. I just do not feel 100% at home in this colour even though it is beautiful. But I am reluctant to get rid of it.

Zoya – Thandie

This Zoya polish is pretty but not spot on. So it can stay in the maybe pile.

OPI – Brights Power

Another beautiful but not spot on bright shade.

Pahlish – Mind Like a Diamond

As always I am reluctant to let go of any shades from Pahlish, but this one is very meh. It has a beautiful shimmer that totally gets drowned by the base shade. It just looks grey with dark grey flecks.

Hell no!

Darling Diva – Little Red Corvette

A very cool polish that has sadly dried up to the texture of a very thick marmalade. I could get this one wear out of it but that’s it.

So to conclude this round of The Twelve I ended up with six keepers, five maybes and one hell no.

Thank you for reading!
