BUTTER LONDON JASPER COMPARISON

Hi guys, I was going to do a 2012 favourites post but after compiling my list I've realised I haven't even blogged about half of my favourite polishes *blushing* I am such a bad blogger! 

Anyway when I got Jasper I went to my stash and pulled out what looked like possible dupes and I was pleasantly surprised.

 I've compared Jasper to Models Own Lemon Meringue and Barry M Pale Yellow. 

On my middle finger and pinky we have Jasper, ring finger is Lemon Meringue and the pointer finger is Pale Yellow. All are 3 coats 

As you can see they aren't dupes!

Lemon Meringue is less yellow, lighter and looks a little chalky 

Pale Yellow is a Jelly/Creme and is very shiny and looks squishy, colour wise it's more egg yolk colour compared to the others

So this is a unique colour in stash and I'm rather choosy about my yellow polishes and I'm happy to report I love this one, it's a welcome addition to the stash :)

30 DAY CHALLENGE, DAY 3 - YELLOOOOWW

yep it's yellow day today : ) 
for this i thought i'd try one of my paler yellow's as opposed to my in your face yellows or neons! this is barry m lemon ice cream 

i ruined the accent nail, i tried to do like a block gradient with 2 other yellows, but it turned into a fail : ( 

application of this was beautiful, and no streaky, yes a non streaky, easy to apply, 2 coat yellow : ) loll but i find the colour is a bit too pale for my liking, it just doesn't suit me imo but for £2.99 it's defo worth it : ) 

tomorrow's my favourite colour, can't wait  ; O take care chica's

ok so this is my very summery mani from a few days ago, i too saw this design on the illustrated nail and it was the one that stood out to me but when i saw the tutorial over at polish art addiction i had to try it, funnily enough i only got round to it a few days ago lol,
