Nails Inc Sprinkles Sweets Way

This is the only other member of the Sprinkles collection that I had to own... Another blogger described it as what she dream Glitter in the Air would be like and I totally agree.

Sweets Way has a milky whitish gray base with just a touch of pink to mess with you. It features very small metallic blue, pink, and silver glitter (in abundance). I used two coats to achieve opacity, this is with cult nails top coat, but this polish really doesn't need it. It dried fairly fast on its own and doesn't get much shinier with top coat.

Nails Inc Mirror Metallic Stratford

Today I'm wearing the other mirror metallic polish that I bought at Sephora. This is Stratford, a pink/gold/green multi chrome. I noticed that this dries to a much more chrome-y finish than Cheyne Walk, this makes it more prone to brush strokes.

To be honest, I didn't like this in the bottle, it looked a little boring. It was a less flashy and looked too frosty. I only bought it because I had a gift card burning a hole in my pocket. I was SO wrong! This is just as, if not more, multi chrome as Cheyne Walk and I own nothing else with this particular color shift. It was impossible to photograph, I'm sorry

This is 3 coats + cult nails Wicked Fast

Nails Inc Sprinkles Pudding Lane

I wasn't going to buy this, online swatches had convinced me that it wasn't special enough to need... Then I SAW it in sephora and it somehow came home with me...

Pudding Lane is a creamy baby blue base filled with matte purple and green glitters. It's completely opaque in two coats and dries quickly to a semi matte gritty finish. Pictures show the polish on its own, with a matte top coat, and with SV.

Nails Inc Mirror Metallic Cheyne Walk (pic heavy)

I just picked up 2 of the Nails Inc Mirror Metallic polishes at Sephora last night. This is Cheyne Walk, it's a purple/gold/olive multi chrome with a pearly metallic finish. I'm wearing three coats and no top coat in the pictures. I found the formula to be very easy to work with, thin but not runny and opacity was easy to achieve. I think it looks good with out topcoat, but if you wanted it even shinier I imagine that one coat of SV would do the trick.

There are LOTS of pictures today because I just could not photograph the multi chrome effect accurately. As you can see it varies between brilliant purple to shimmery olive depending on the angle and light. This polish is very pretty and I'm glad I brought it home
