Next Stop... The Bikini Zone
A lilac to gray duochrome with a scattered small fleck shimmer. This is the only non-creamy shade in the collection and it is quite delicate and beautiful. It has an easy to apply formula. It starts out a bit sheer at first coat, but does build up to full coverage by three coats as seen in the swatches below. No top coat in these swatches...

Don't Bossa Nova Me Around
A pale nude cream with gray undertones. This has a wonderful, smooth formula which is easy to apply. Two coats provides full coverage. I'm a sucker for shades such as this since they make perfect bases for nail art. It is just lovely. No top coat...

AmazON... AmazOFF
A dark teal cream/crelly. The formula on this one was a bit thinner than the shades above and was determined to flood my cuticles. It also didn't wrap around the tips as easily. Two coats still provided full coverage and it is very glossy on it's own. This does stain the skin/nails upon removal. All of the staining came out after scrubbing with whitening toothpaste, but still disappointing for such a gorgeous color. Swatches with no top coat...

I Just Can't Cope-acabana
A bright primary yellow cream. It dries a bit brighter and more vibrant than it appears in the bottle. The formula is a bit thick, but still fairly easy to apply and it self-levels very well. Two coats provides full coverage as seen below. No top coat in these swatches...

Kiss Me I'm Brazilian
A bubblegum pink cream. Guess what? This also has a very nice, easy to apply formula. This particular shade of pink makes my skin tone look darker. Insta-tan. Even my bf commented on it. Swatches are 2 coats with no top coat...

Red Hot Rio
A classic cherry red jelly. The formula is very nice, not dragging or pooling. Three coats provides decent coverage and although you can see hints of the nail line in the swatches below, it wasn't noticeable in reality. It is very glossy and shiny as I would expect for a jelly. Swatches are with no top coat...

Beach Sandies - Liquid Sand Mini Nail Lacquers
Rather than swatch the colors individually, I thought it would be fun to do a colorful skittle mani to show them off. I let the polishes dry for a little over an hour before taking photos to ensure they were completely dry, however, they are dry to the touch and wearable soon than that...
The Beach Sandies are textured lacquers. The texture on these is not very coarse as they don't contain any large glitter pieces. Also because they are not very coarse, they apply very easily. I used two coats of each of the shades for my mani. You're So Flippy Floppy (yellow) was the sheerest and you can slightly see the hint of a nail line visible at two coats. I used no top coat with these...

DeleteI just love these liquid sand shades also! I wish they would create full size bottles of them even though I will prob never run out even with the minis :)
The teal is so gorgeous! I do wish it didn't stain though.
Gah! Your swatches are always flawless. I am so impressed with this collection too. I love every single one of those crèmes. I picked up all the bright colors and am kicking myself for not getting the whole damn lot!
ReplyDeleteThank you for such kind words! I'm always glad to know someone enjoys my swatches! It means a lot to me :)
DeleteThese two coat creams are just perfection! They just nailed the formula on these! :)
Beautiful photos! :-) I love liquid sand nail polishes! :-)
