Comparison Cobalt Blue Polishes

I've been bad at doing comparisons lately so to make up for that I hereby give you the second comparison this week ;)
This time I'm comparing my favourite shade of blue - cobalt blue!

All polishes are two coats with one coat of top coat.

The Essie polish on the index finger looked opaque to me but somehow the camera captured it with a bit of vnl. In reality it looks opaque.

I compared these four polishes: (from left to right)
Index: Essie Bouncer It's Me
Middle: Nails Inc Baker Street
Ring: SinfulColors Endless Blue
Pinkie: H&M Blue My Mind


In short:
Most beautiful: Nails Inc Baker Street

Best formula: Nails Inc Baker Street
Worst formula: Essie Bouncer It's Me

Most opaque: SinfulColors Endless Blue
Least opaque: Essie Bouncer It's Me

Best brush: Nails Inc Baker Street
Worst brush: SinfulColors Endless Blue

As you can see none of them are dupes, not even similar to me ;)

Which one is your favorite?

Blue Clematis on White - May Challenge - Inspired by fashion

Kelsey at Polished Prescription has convinced me to join my first challenge ever ;) It's a challenge put together by a lovely group of ladies called "Happy Hobby Bloggers". The challenge is simply called "May 1-31 Challenge" and consists of four challenges which feels pretty okey to start with ;)

This is the first challenge "Inspired by fashion" and when I saw a picture of a dress I knew instantly that I wanted to do a mani inspired by that fabric! I have enclosed a picture of the dress further down.

H&M In it for the Game and SinfulColors Endless Blue
My source of inspiration

This is just a stamped Clematis pattern on a white base but I'm very pleased with the result :D I love the color combination of blue and white! Fresh and classic!

Dont forget to check out what the other ladies' are doing in this challenge!
And if you feel like it - do join! :D

SinfulColors Endless Blue - swatches and review

SinfulColors is a very understated brand in my opinion. They have a wide range of beautiful colors to a very affordable price. They are not available in Sweden to my knowledge but you can easily get them from e-bay.

This is a stunning, fantastic and mind blowing blue called Endless Blue - and I'm in love ;) The color is very close to for example Nails Inc Baker Street but unlike Baker Street this is a one coater :D and I love those one coaters when you need a quick fix ;) Take a look at this beauty and be prepared to be awed! This polish also qualifies me for joining in on Blue Monday ;)



GOOD TO KNOW ABOUT ENDLESS BLUE:

Type of polish: Cream.

Colour: A bright cobalt blue.

Opacity: Excellent This is ONE coat! :D

Formula: Very good! A nice formula which is easy to apply.

Brush: Ok. Wide, but a bit too like Sation's brushes, i.e you have to take the exact right amount of polish on the brush to avoid streaks or flooding.

Shine: Very shiny on its own, but I have one coat of Seche Vite top coat in these pictures.

Accurate colour, photo vs IRL: Quite accurate. It's a bright but still dark cobalt blue.

Grade: 5++++++++++++++/5 :D

I sooo love this polish!! It's the perfect blue AND a one coater! Yes, it has its issues with the brush but once you get to know the brush it's no problem at all! If you are a true blue-aholic you NEED this polish! You won't regret it - I promise! :)
