Sinful Colors Feeling Lucky?

Press Sample
Glitter topper polishes - love them or hate them? Either way, they are an instant way to get nail art to your nails. Today I have Sinful Colors Feeling Lucky? a limited edition polish in stores now. This polish has bright green microglitter in 2 sizes, lime green round glitter and gold 4 leaf clover glitter all suspended in a clear base.

I decided to layer one coat of Feeling Lucky? over JulieG Gelato in Venice. The microglitters and round glitter applied properly but I had to fish around for a gold 4 leaf clover that I placed on my ring finger. Unfortunately, my ring finger is more curved than I thought so the glitter stuck up and caught on everything before peeling off. I topped all layers of polish with Glisten & Glow H K Girl top coat.

I really like how well the different sizes of glitters play off each other and how well they applied in one coat. My only downfall was using the 4 leaf clover on my ring finger instead of my middle finger (which is more of a flat nail).

Sinful Colors Exotic Green

Press Sample
Guess what's coming up? St. Patrick's! I teamed up with some of the best bloggers out there to bring you 7 Days of St. Patrick's! We are posting polishes and nail art looks that revolve around green. Today I have a polish from Sinful Colors called Exotic Green from the Sham-Rockin collection.

I used a base coat of Duri Rejuvacote, 3 coats of polish and finished with Glisten & Glow H K Girl top coat. This polish is a bit of a jelly, so I used 3 coats to try and cover the whole nail. I didn't realize this was a jelly until the first coat so it was a surprise. This green reminds me of a squishy cactus.

There is quite a bit of yellow in this polish but thankfully I didn't have any staining. This would be the perfect base for nail art or just to wear out because you rock that green. Rock it.

China Glaze Broken Hearted

The finale to the original Crackle Glaze colors is this pink number, Broken Hearted.  It's not a neon, but it is a bright one.


Here it is over Sinful Colors Glass Pink from a few weeks ago (months?)

I do love how shimmers look under crackles!

And even more so in the shade!  It's so lovely!


Next I shook the living daylights out of it, let the bubbles set, and then put it over a base of e.l.f. Black (because I'm super low on my CND Blackjack) and OPI Alpine Snow.

I LOVE THIS OVER WHITE.  Over black, I found that it was a bit streaky (see the middle finger) but over white?!  Love it.

Same thing in the shade - still loving it over the white.

Need I say more?  Seriously?  I haven't seen any other pink shatter/crackles out there, so as far as uniqueness - yay!

China Glaze can be found online through several etailers, including my favorite Head2Toe Beauty, Sally's Beauty Supply, and TransDesign.

Sinful Colors Soul Mate

The last color I have to review from the Sinful Colors Pretty-In-Pink Collection is Soul Mate, a muted peachy pink with a melon twist - and that's a pretty accurate color description as you'll see in my pictures.  


I used a base of Seche Natural, 2 coats of Soul Mate, and a top coat of Seche Vite.  This polish seemed a little thick but a bit of thinner would clear that up.

In the sun, you can really see the melon - it's a bit watermelon pink but dusty watermelon?  Does that make sense?  Heh.

Is this the same color?  Yes, I promise it is - this is when you see the pink show up - the shade.  Oh shade.  It's almost like a color changing polish like Del-Sol, but I promise it's just one bottle, one color.  ^_^  For $2, pick it up (and make sure you have a bit of thinner).

Sinful Colors Glass Pink

I have another pink today from Sinful Colors, Glass Pink from the PRETTY-IN-PINK collection, a sheer, shiny, shimmer-happy bliss.  


I used a base coat of Seche Natural, 2 coats of Glass Pink and a top of Seche Vite, but I have to say, it didn't play well with Seche Vite and started to pull up on me.  I probably should have tried to layer this over black or a red... but I wanted to test it out alone. 

In the sun, you can see that even though you can still see my nail, but it does work well alone.

I seriously apologize for this blurry shade shot... I don't know what happened, hah.  Again, you can still see that it works well alone but you can see VNL.  I'd like to see this over another color so I'll see what I can do.  Overall, especially for the price, it's a great polish.

Sinful Colors Pink Forever vs China Glaze Sexy Lady

So now that you've seen them apart, let's check out Sinful Colors Pink Forever against China Glaze Sexy Lady.  Both are pink cremes, both apply nicely - so what's the difference?


For both polishes I used a base coat of Seche Natural, 2 coats of polish and a top of Seche Vite.

In the sun, you can see that Sexy Lady is just a bit darker than Pink Forever - more of a red than a pink... but they are both pretty close.

Same story in the shade.  Sexy Lady is just a tiny bit darker/more red.


So if you have Pink Forever, should you hunt down Sexy Lady (only available via eBay now)?  If you have Sexy Lady, are you really going to skip the $2 kissing cousin that is Pink Forever?  Well, that's up to you.  ^_^

Sinful Colors Pink Forever

From the "Pretty-In-Pink" collection, today I have Sinful Colors Pink Forever, a medium bubblegum pink creme.  Now, the press release says "Bazooka meets Bam-Bam to equal beautiful"... now I was thinking "Bazooka bubble gum, I get it", but the Bam-Bam part?  I mean, I know that Bam-Bam was on the Flintstones but he work orange and yellow and his club was brown... Yeah I don't know.


I used a base of Seche Natural, 2 coats of Pink Forever, and a top of Seche Vite.  The formula was very nice - not runny or thick.

Maybe it's like "BAM-BAM" in your FACE?!  While this is not a neon color, it does hit you like a neon, but it dries normal.  It's pretty awesome, I must say.

While it's softer in the shade (and has a hint of blue maybe?), it's still a very lovely creme color and for only $2, totally worth the price.

Sinful Colors Let's Talk

Even though I love China Glaze, I occasionally find other nail polishes that catch my eye.  One brand in particular is Sinful Colors, which I've always found in my local Walgreens drug store.  The bottles are around $2 a piece, but I picked up several at a 2 for $1 sale they were having in November.


Sinful Colors Let's Talk is a dark purple with itty bitty red and blue sparkles when you hold it up to the light.  However, on the nail, this color is just a trip.  I have a natural light bulb in my desk lamp, to mimic natural sunshine as much as possible.  It gives off a white light instead of a yellow light like most light bulbs do.  I could have gotten away with one coat, but added a second coat to be safe.  I found the polish to be a little thick, running into my cuticles on the pinkies.  I started off with a base coat of Seche Vite and was a happy girl until I started putting the top coat of Seche Vite on and my jaw dropped.  My pretty purple was turning into a royal blue.  I was using an older bottle of top coat, so I grabbed a brand new bottle of Seche Vite for my right hand, but nope - more royal blue.  Slightly saddened, I walked into the bathroom (where there is still the yellow light bulbs) and BAM - purple polish.  Okay, what?  I lucked out with this picture, able to get the real purple color from the yellow bulb room lamp on the left (my right hand) and the weird royal blue color from my desk lamp on the right (my left hand).

Despite how hard I tried, I couldn't get my camera to take a natural picture of the purple - not even in the bathroom, so I just used loads of color corrections to make this as realistic as possible.  I can't wait to see it in the Texas sun (if we ever get any) to go from sun to shade.
