On Wednesdays We Wear Pink: Sinful Colors: Star Fish (Island Adventure Collection)

It's another Pink Wednesday and today I have a gorgeous color straight from the drug store. On Monday I showed you that gorgeous dusts sage color from Sinful Color's Island Adventure collection, well today I have another beauty from the same promotion.  This is Star Fish. Star Fish is a gorgeous blue toned bubblegum like pink color.  I find this type of pink to be among the most flattering pinks for my skin tone. It reminds me of Essie's Splash of Grenadine.  Just as Seaweed was a dupe of OPI's Stranger Tides, this is a perfect dupe for OPI's Sparrow Me the Drama.  I love a good cheap dupe!!

The formula on this was a little on the thick side. It didn't cause me any trouble, however you need to be a bit careful to avoid a gloopy look.  I got full opacity in just two coats, and the photos below are two coats.

I tend to like Sinful Colors polishes. I am rarely disappointed with their products. I love that they are now launching some more relevant color collections. I am sure the dupes piss off the big companies, but it's nice to see affordable, high quality products in modern shades available in drugstores.

What do you think of this pink? Have you seen this collection in your area? The only color I want from it that I cannot find is the purple. It's beautiful and I favor purples. I will track it down!

Sinful Colors: Seaweed (Adventure Island Collection)

Good morning!!! I hope everyone is doing well today. Sorry I took last week off from blogging. It's been so tough to get good photos done when I have NO SUNSHINE. The ones I have for today are okay but not the best. My apologies. When I get a beautiful sunny day I will do a swatch-a-thon! 

Today I have a gorgeous sage green from Sinful Color's Adventure Island collection to share with you. This color is literally the perfect dupe for OPI's Stranger Tides. I was shopping this weekend while wearing this and picked up Stranger Tides and it was identical so I did not even purchase it! Gotta love a $2 dupe! :-) I just love this color. Green is my favorite color and this is my favorite shade of green!

The formula is great. I had no issue with application. It was on the thick side but it didn't make it difficult to work with at all.  

If you're dying to get you hands on Stranger Tides  but can't find it or cringe at the price, head over to Rite Aid and get this baby for just $1.99 it will satisfy that craving!

Zoya: Minka (Touch Collection)

Hi everyone! Today I have another color from Zoya's Touch Collection. This one is Minka. Zoya describes Minka as: "A pale, milky beige nude with yellow undertones and a hint of pearly silver shimmer. An opaque, full-coverage nude, especially flattering on skin with neutral and olive tones." This is absolutely a more yellow toned nude color. It's not a gross, dirty looking yellow, it's just enough yellow tone. The shimmer in this is understated, nice and subtle.

I found the formula on this one to be easy to work with and I did get full opacity in just two coats. I really love Zoya's formula and this color is no exception. It's nice to get an opaque nude, which is really what this collection is all about. For those of us who loathe VNL these nudes do the trick. 

What do you think of this one?!
