Below: Going Green is an exceptional shade of Kelly green with a hint of shimmer. I used 2 coats and had a near perfect application.
Below: Purple Pizzazz, a deep Grape purple with multi-colored glitter is shown in 2 coats over Going Green. I tried it alone, but it's not as pigmented as some of the others after 2 coats on it's own. Using it this way gave me a look that was closer to the bottle shade.
Below: In the Spotlight is a stunning polish when used as a top coat over a darker shade (shown here over Purple Pizzazz). It has holographic bar glitter and the bars seem to have some sort of nuclear glow!
Below: Pacific Blue is a one-coat wonder. This vivid shade of Cornflower blue covered beautifully in just one coat.
Below: Wet Cement indeed looks like wet cement. A lighter shade of grey, this applied very nicely in 2 coats. You can click on the links below to view some of the other polish swatches included in the prize package.
Today's prize is a salute to Sally Hansen and some of the trendy shades they've been coming out with. Their Xtreme Wear line has really been stepping up to the scene lately, and I've been quite impressed with not only the shades and finishes, but the formula itself. Their newest line, Complete Salon Manicure, has also come out with some beautiful shades, although I personally have not entirely perfected my application on these (they have a wider, flatter brush than the Xtreme Wear line). And who could forget the cult status that Opulent Cloud has attained? I swatched (my own bottles, not the prize bottles!) the Xtreme Wears for you to check out, and here are links to my swatches of Fairy Teal and Opulent Cloud. I'm going to refer you to Megan's blog if you'd like to see her comparison photo of Commander in Chic, because I haven't swatched mine yet (and because she did a beautiful job with this taupe comparison post!). Their Color Quick Fast Dry Nail Color Pens, also a new line, are certainly different, although this is something else I still need practice with. I was drawn to the chrome shades in this line, and when I saw Green Chrome, I thought it might be an interesting one to try out, especially as a Konad stamping shade. Here's my post on this line's Gold Chrome Nail Color Pen, if you'd like to check it out.
Today's winner will receive all of the polishes pictured above, and here's all you need to do:
