Swatch & Review

So today I'll be swatching two polishes from LUCIDarling nail polish. I purchased these two from Etude House months ago.

The brushes are slightly flat and big. Application was smooth brush was soft too. However, they are pretty sheer and kinda streaky. Needs about 3 coats (or more)  to even out the colours.

I don't remember why I bought this colour (must be greed). Oh, don't get me wrong, it is a great colour but I don't think it suits my skin tone. Still, I really love the combo of this the light coral colour with the gold glitters. Its most likely I won't wear it as a whole, maybe I'll mix and match it with other colours.

Next up! One of my favourite shades of all time, MINT!!

I've just only noticed that my pinky finger needs more coats. Somehow the opaque-ness on the pinky lost out to the other 3. LUCIDarling Glittering Tender Mint, I must say this nail polish quickly chart the tops as one of my favourite nail colour of all time! And true to its name, it does have a much tender feel to it. Its a little muted, not too bright, just right for soft feeling the colour is giving out. It also have this little green glitters which I think add to its uniqueness! And this colour suits my skin better. 

Yayness! What about you? Do you prefer the Jewel Coral or Tender Mint?
