China Glaze Sweet Hook + Aquadelic

These two polishes came in my little polish haul i bought from America. I love both of these colours.

Any Purple/lilac nail polish i just can't resist. Sweet Hook is a pale purple with a pink tone to it. I really do love this colour but found applying it to be a little difficult for some reason and it seemed a little uneven in places. But still apart from that i would wear this polish all the time if it wasn't for the fact i have so many.



Aquadelic is a green/turquoise polish. It dries brighter then it looks in the bottle and has a nice gloss to it once dried. This polished applied alot smoother then Sweet hook and looked more even once dried. I don't have many greens in my collection as my work uniform is a green top so it tends to clash but if i added a silver glitter on top like OPI Pirouette My Whistle i think this colour would look really pretty. The only negative to this colour i found was when i removed the polish i had green stains on the skin around my nails.

OPI Austin-tatious Turquoise

This was one of my weekend bargins i managed to pick up 2 OPI for £4 each!!!!! i rarely buy OPI in a shop as they sell for £11 and unless i love a colour then i wont pay that money i will instead buy from Ebay. In my local Debenhams they have a Regis counter that sells all OPI products and for some reason they were doing HUGE discounts on loads of the older polishes. I bought this and another colour which was marked down to £6 however when it came to paying they didn't really look and put both through at £4! i certainly wasn't complaining.

This colour in the bottle looks amazing and photographed really well, but it was abit of a pain. It was very very sheer and took 4 coats for a full coverage some nails could of done with 5. i was a little disappointed that the pink shimmer you see in the bottle doesn't at all show up on your nails but in the sun and light the polish is gorgeous!! This is one of the rare polishes that i wouldn't mind using 4/5 coats on. And for £4 for an OPI you can't really complain.
