Hi everyone, how was your weekend? I'm back today with another instalment of Fragrance Direct Friday (sorry it's such a late one by the way) Any of you who saw part 2 of my haul post yesterday will already know that I was planning to do this post yesterday, but had what I called a brain fart, and ended up with nothing to post! I may have accidentally swatched the wrong polish, and although it was the same brand, and also a very similar colour, it isn't on the site, and I didn't get it from there! So, I ended up doing the swatches for this post earlier this afternoon!
Anyway, I have 2 polishes from the Revlon Top Speed line to show you today, which are both still available here for 99p each. First up is the very popular Royal, a stunning cobalt blue jelly. These swatches are 3 coats with 1 coat of Seche Vite. This wasn't really necessary, as this polish was very shiny by itself, but I always knock or dent my nails when they're drying, so I always use Seche. And, in case anyone is wondering, this is not a dupe for Barry M - Blue Grape, as it is a few shades darker.
Expect to see this polish a lot in the future, I love bright cobalt blues!
I bought this mostly to use for nail art, as I'm really not partial to yellow polish, but I do think this is pretty, and I imagine it would look stunning on darker skin than mine. There's something about bright yellow against fair skin that just doesn't look right to me!
I also have one more shade from this line that is still available, it's called Mistletoe, and you can see a swatch of it here.
I have wondered if Royal was the same as Blue Grape, looks like I still may have to get Royal now :P
ReplyDeleteI thought they may have been dupes untill I put them side by side. Most blokes wouldn't see a difference, but we know better! xx
