Sinful Colors Cinderella Swatches

Hey girlies... so some awesome ladies talked me into continuing my blog and here I am. Today I have polish that I picked up solely due to its name. It could have been the most grotesque, hideous polish ever made, but I would have bought it because of its name. I'm talking about Sinful Colors Cinderella. I was OBSESSED with the movie as a child. I could recite it to you backwards. I would not go to sleep without watching it, every night. It was serious. I was in love with that movie. I still am very fond of anything having to do with Cinderella so of course I picked up this polish. The fact that it was gorgeous made it even better. It's a baby blue jelly with pink/gold duochrome glass flecks. It really does look very Cinderella-esque. It was very sheer. I swatched it on its own and after 4 coats it was still not to my liking so I swatched it over Color Club Take Me to Your Chateau, my new favorite go-to baby blue. It was opaque and perfect in two coats, almost a one-coater. Yup, a pastel blue almost a one-coater... Anyways, I put one coat of Cinderella on top and it was magical. Too bad it was incredibly difficult to capture. Here's my first failed attempt:


The flash totally washed out the glass flecks on my nails! So then I did some voodoo and I was able to capture the flecks:



This picture does not do Cinderella justice AT ALL but you can see both gold and pink here so it works. Also, I left these pictures HUGE so feel free to click and see them really close. Ignore the nail polish under my pointer finger when you do though. This polish looks even better up close.

Sidenote: the Sinful Colors brush is REALLY wonky... the bristles aren't even straight and soo long, it's like painting on polish with those cheap paint brushes we used to use in art class in elementary school... elgh. Just thought I'd warn you guys.

What do you think? Do you like it? I bought two of these because I'm including it in a giveaway I plan on doing soon. Let me know what you think. Thanks for reading! :)

  5. Beautiful on you! I think this is similar to blue lagoon by revlon? I'm not sure! I have both... SO i may do a comparison! and I LOVE that we have the same obsession with Cinderella :) I hunted and hunted and hunted to find a prom dress similar to her's when I went to my senior prom.. :) But I love fairytales anyway, lol.
