Hi!
I had such a busy week and didn't have time to post sooner or to reply to any comments yet - I'm kind of exhausted right now too so the comments will have to wait until tomorrow! However, I have just enough energy left too publish a quick post ;)
I mentioned in my recent haul post that I had picked up two Sally Hansen Satin Glams: Teal Tulle and Taffeta. Looking back I'm kind of bummed I didn't pick up the pink one too (Chic Pink) as it's such a pretty bubblegum colour! The same goes for Glam Go Gold, a gorgeous pinkish bronze colour.
Let's start with Taffeta! It has a lovely soft purple colour, which reminds me of spring and flowers.
I used two coats and this polish applied very easily, no issues at all. It also dried very quickly. The only booh! thing about this one is that I got a wonky brush: there's a few hairs sticking out at the sides so I will have to trim it a bit.
I was curious to see how this polish would look with shiny top coat so I added my Top Shine from Sinful Colors. And to be honest, that didn't change all that much. It might be because that top coat sucks though, I will not buy it again, because shine? No, not as much shine as the name would have you think.
Next up, Teal Tulle!
And a shiny version with top coat!
I also have a few close-ups so you can see that satin finish a bit better (so these are without top coat obvs). I really like this finish and the shimmer in the polishes is so pretty too!
Did you pick up any of the Satin Glams, and which ones? I wish I had picked up more lol :p
Thanks for reading!
Both of them are gorgeous but Taffeta looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I love the soft colour of Taffeta :)
DeleteBoth lovely! I didn't pick them as I'm trying to decrease the amount of polishes (hopelessly ;) ).
ReplyDeleteHaha yes, a problem I am struggling with too now! ;)
DeleteThe colors are very nice!! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks!! I especially love the bright blue of Teal Tulle ;)
DeleteThese are pretty!
ReplyDeleteSometimes SH chips rather quickly on me. But I still like them- they're cheap and easy to find in stores here. :)
Really, they are cheap in America? You turned my world upside down right now Jacqui, I thought these were kind of expensive where you live!! Either way they're expensive here :/ Guess I will have to plan a trip to America haha!
DeleteI'm going to post a satinglam swatch tmrw! I found a couple bottles at the dollar store, believe it or not. Yeah, over here the cheapest polishes are wet n wild $0.99, sinfulcolors $1.98, and certain sally hansens (like xtreme wears) are $2.99. Revlon and L'oreal are around $6. OPIs are usually $8. My favorite AVONs are $3.49, plus I get a discount :)
DeleteOoh I look forward to them! Wow, Sally Hansens and OPI's are €15 here which is about $16! I know I'll be doing much polish shopping if I ever decide to visit America! :D
DeleteThese both look gorgeous :-) They aren't available over here and they cost a fortune if I were to buy them from American :-(
ReplyDeleteThanks Ananka!! That's too bad! We don't often get special Sally Hansens here either so I was surprised (and very happy) to find these!
DeleteI saw them, when they were in our stores, but didn't grab one, because I'm not that into matte or velvet polishes... But I really like the shades you choose, they are perfect for spring!
ReplyDeleteThey were on sale so I couldn't resist :D I wasn't sure if I would like the satin finish either but now I'm addicted and desperately need moooore lol! I think the shades are perfect for spring too! :D
DeleteBeide erg mooi maar vind die teal wel het allermooiste. Prachtige lakjes!
ReplyDeleteVind ik ook!! Echt een mooie heldere kleur! :)
DeleteHope you feel more rested soon! I love them both! I actually can't decide which I like more! Love the satin finish, I really need more satin's in my life, they are so nice to paint on top of! xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Ithi!! I've had another couple of busy days just now but normally things should get calmer from now on - I can already feel my stress level drop haha! I need more satin's too, it's such a pretty finish! :)
DeleteReally pretty both of them :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! :D
DeleteThey are so beautiful and sadly I can't find the series anywhere nearby... :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Joanne! Oh that's too bad... And buying them online would probably be really expensive, I feel you! :/
