FingerPaints - Enchanted Winter Collection - swatches and review

Have you ever walked by a polish in a store and heard it calling your name? That's what happened to me with the FingerPaints - Limited Edition Enchanted Winter Collection.

I purchased three of these from Sally Beauty. I really think I am going to have to go back and grab the other three!

The FingerPaints Limited Edition Enchanted Winter Collection features six trendy, textured shades. They have tons of microglitter to make them sparkle and shine.

I used two coats and they applied wonderfully. I took photos of them with and without top coat. The top coat makes the sparkle pop even more. If you aren't a fan of textured polishes (and these are only slightly textured) don't let that stop you. These are gorgeous!

Let's start with my favorite.

Sparkle in the Sky: is a gorgeous deep navy blue with tons of sparkle. It really does look like the night sky!

I am definitely going to have to pick up the other three from this limited-edition collection. Right now they are on sale at Sally Beauty for $3.99.

These polishes were purchased by me. All opinions are my own. Due to differences in computer monitors the colors you see may be slightly different from the actual color.

Ad"mint"edly close

I was looking through my polishes and realized I have four really similar "minty" polishes. Okay, Okay, I have a lot of similar polishes... Just don't tell my husband. I think he just sees blues, reds, and pinks...

So I decided to do a comparison of the polishes.

The four polishes are:

Nicole OPI My Lifesaver

China Glaze Aquadelic

Wet n Wild I Need a RefreshMint

FingerPaints ChocoMint

This is three coats on all fingers. I could have perhaps gotten away with 2 if I had applied a base coat. 

They are all really similar. The NOPI and the Fingerpaints are slightly more green.

They all applied very well. Although I think the Wet n Wild is a little thinner than the others. 

How close do you think they are?

Finger Paints "Color Inside the Lines" with gold accents

Sorry it has been a while since I have updated. I have had some family emergencies.

Let me just jump to the wonderful Finger Paints color I used. Finger Paints "Color Inside the Lines" is an amazing, vibrant, gorgeous pink. The application is great. Two coats provided amazing coverage.

Then I added a gold line using Sinful Colors "Pot O Gold" Nail Art polish. The I used Essie "Cosmo's PSS Shimmer" on the tip. It is much more pretty in real life than in these photos.

The brush in the Sinful Colors "Pot O Gold" is phenomenal. It is truly a nail art brush.

Essie's "Cosmo's PSS Shimmer" is an amazing burst of gold shimmers and applies wonderfully.

Scotch tape mani with some glitz

I seriously think it takes me longer to pick out a polish to wear than to paint my nails. So I used several for my NOTD. 

I used OPI "I have a herring problem" for the base. I love this polish. It is from the new Holland Collection.

For the diagonal tip I used FingerPaints "Art of theft." 

And for the dots I used Nicole OPI "Make a comet-ment". This is one of my favorites. It has serious glitz and doesn't have a gritty finish. It almost looks like a rhinestone.

Fingerpaints Are You Blue and OPI Iceberg Lotus

I did a quick manicure tonight and I am loving the results. Two coats of Fingerpaints "Are You Blue" and one coat of OPI "Iceberg Lotus". What a phenomenal combination!

The Fingerpaints had a flawless application and the dry time was super fast! Forgive the shadow but this was the photo that showed the color the best.

Also, I was a bit messy on the application as I was rushed packing for a trip.

Then I added one layer of OPI "Iceberg Lotus". I love this glittery polish. It is a wonderful, majestic blue-green color. I wish the photos would pick up the green iridescent color. But until the weather is better again in Wyoming I am not going outside to take photos. The wind is blowing hard enought to blow the polish right off my nails!

Again, a wonderful application and the brush was amazing! Basically one or two swipes and you are done!

 

I got a little over-zealous so now I need to spend some time cleaning up.
