Rainbow Favorites Day 6 - Purple

I hope you're enjoying your Friday! Today's color for the rainbow challenge is purple. I honestly thought I would have a large amount of trouble picking one. Especially considering I have over seventy purples. But I found myself underwhelmed while looking at my purple nail wheels. Maybe I was having a blah day because I love purple. I only found two that I wanted to consider as a favorite. Catrice Dirty Berry and Zoya Nova. I love the former, but I had not tried the latter and wanted to see it on my nails.




Zoya Nova is a fuchsia purple jelly with dark and light pink glitter. The application is great. I used two coats. From browsing other blogs, it seems most used three coats and got a very opaque glitter packed appearance. I guess I'm digging the jellies lately because I was happy with two coats. In person, I have no visible nail line.

I wouldn't say this is my favorite purple ever, but it is certainly my favorite this week. :)

Rainbow Favorites Day 3 - Yellow

I hope you're enjoying your Tuesday! I have another part of the rainbow challenge to share with you. Just like the last two days, I debated over two polishes before I chose one. Its hard to pick just one.



Finger Paints Psychedelic Sunshine is a yellow jelly packed full of holo micro glitter. Its rather sheer, even for a jelly. Normally I would use a matching base coat, but decided to just wear it alone this time. If you want to see what it looks like with a yellow base coat, you can check out my original post here. The application is good, once thinned a little. What you see above is two coats. 

Psychedelic Sunshine is from Finger Paints Summer 2011 Peace, Love and Color Collection. It is not available at Sally Beauty Supply anymore, so if you love yellow and are lucky enough to see a bottle, snag this beauty.

Rainbow Favorites Day 2 - Orange

I hope you're enjoying your Monday! I have another part of the rainbow challenge to share with you. Today is orange. Just like yesterday, I debated over two polishes before I chose one.



Wet n Wild Creepy Pumpkin is an orange jelly with shimmer. I love this orange! I initially grabbed it because of the bottle shape and ended up completely in love. But seriously, how cute is this bottle. If you have never seen them, its a rectangular bottle with a tombstone as the cap. The application is great. Its rather sheer, as one can expect from a jelly. Two coats to reach this amount of coverage.

Creepy Pumpkin was part of the Fantasy Makers Collection from Halloween 2011. At the time, it retailed for $2. Its very scarce online. I am hoping that they will bring it back this year.

Rainbow Favorites Day 1 - Red

I hope you're enjoying your Sunday! Its almost over here. I'm late getting my post up. Several bloggers are participating in a rainbow challenge. Each day of this week, we pick our favorite polish of a certain color. Bec from Lacquer Dreams came up with this lovely idea.



Just picking one polish was hard. It came down to two. Essence Once Upon a Time and Wet n Wild Red Red. Both are so pretty. I finally decided to go with the classic red creme. Red Red is a lovely red creme with a slight hint of pink. Very classic.

Wet n Wild retail for $1-2 at CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Ulta, and many other stores, all of which are listed on their website
