Sinful Colors Nail Junkie

Hello my lovelies! It's Saturday and that means almost everyone is relaxing somehow. If you are at work today I feel for you, but maybe I can cheer you up with this post. Over a month ago I received my very first Sinful Colors nail polish as a surprise from my lovely friend Kinga. Not only did my nail polish collector heart skip a beat, but I was in love with the actual shade. I wore it right away but of course I forgot to post about it on the blog. I acquired my second Sinful Colors shade in the meantime and since it will be the subject of Monday's post, I had to show this one first. So here we go!

Nail Junkie consists of a turquoise jelly base with two different sizes of iridescent glitter. It's really pretty and sparkly, but hard to photograph. It's also on the sheerer side and I don't really know how many coats it would need to be opaque on its own. So I took the easy way out and layered it over a coat of a similar colored polish. The closest I had in my collection is Essence Life is a Freeride so that's what I used.

I used one coat of the Essence as a base so it wasn't completely opaque either. I then added two thin coats of Nail Junkie and finished with a coat of Seche Vite. I can assure you that there wasn't any visible nail line in real life but somehow it photographed this way. It also photographed lighter than it really was. The important thing is that you understand how sparkly this was, because it really was!

So far I had a great experience with the Sinful Colors brand. The only bad thing is that I can't find it where I live. Stay tuned to see the other SC shade I own in the next Monday Blues post!
