Back on the Wagon!

It's strange when you haven't blogged for a while you feel like you have fallen off the wagon. Blogging is very much a love/love but with pressure relationship for me. At first when I started blogging...I was just playing with polish! I love my polish even more now than when I started, but I just haven't got my perfect set up at home to share with others in an efficient way and I am my own worst critic when it comes to things. So, I am doing some swatches today for this week as I am back at work where there is no creativity allowed, especially with nail polish ie.should have none :( Feeling pretty suffocated on that front. I am wondering if a change of career is needed or maybe I need a whole life overhaul! Onto the polish I say..

This is Ulta3's new pastel collection, Soft Hydrangea. I have gathered a few more pastels since starting collecting polish and for $2 a bottle I couldn't go past this range. Soft Hydrangea is a egg shell/baby blue which is opaque in 2 coats. The brush is horrid, hard to apply accurately and the formula was a bit jelly like, maybe a few drops of thinner will be needed :) The color is cute though!

Yes! It does appear lighter than in the bottle.

 Gratuitous odd bottle shot!

This was Soft Hydreangea with Seche top coat and after 2 days wear. You can see some tip wear and not long after it chipped. Hmmm..maybe it needs a slightly different top coat. I really like this color and despite the dodgy brush and slightly gloppy formula it applied pretty well :) Keep an eye out for these, I found mine at a Terry White Chemist. There is 6 of in the collection with 2 pinks, an orange, this blue, a lavender and a mint green.

I will see y'all tomorrow for my next post now that I have got my sh*t organized!
