Sally Hansen - Tender Teal (270)

Here is the last of the 3 polishes I bought from the new Sally Hansen Diamond Strength LE collection. Tender Teal. This color is so pretty...but like with the rest of these I was not able to capture the awesomeness in a picture. Booo. :(

The formula on all three of the polishes I bought from this collection is good. A little on the thick side but manageable. As with All Aglow, this polish covered the nail beautifully in 2 coats. It looks even prettier with Revlon - Royal underneath but for swatch purposes I left that out today. Okay...on to the pictures!

Ahora les tengo el ultimo de los esmaltes que compre de la colección limitada de Sally Hansen Diamond Strength. El color que les voy a mostrar hoy es Tender Teal. Este color esta precioso pero me costo mucho tomarle fotos! Tendrán que confiar en mi cuando les digo que estos colores están bellos! :) Besos!

Not a great picture but it really glows like this!

Cell phone picture but pretty close to what it looks like IRL:

and more bad pics to show the duochrome effect:

And an attempt at showing the color difference on the nail between the two:

and a random swatch picture:

Whew! Can you tell I struggled with these? lol It's okay...it was worth it. Hope it was helpful to some of you! <3

Sally Hansen - Blue Frosting (230)

The SO and I decided we were going to make some bison burgers and so we headed out to HEB to buy the stuff yesterday. And anytime I go to HEB I *have* to take a quick look around the cosmetics area...and I found a new display of Sally Hansen Diamond Strengths. For $3.27 I knew I was going to have to take a few...so I picked up Blue Frosting (a light blue shimmer with pink/purple flash), Tender Teal (a blue shimmer with purple flash) and All Aglow (a purple shimmer with a hint of gold flash...but doesn't really show on the nail).

I even took off my second Gelish mani after two days to do some swaches for you all but they just would not photograph well! :( I haven't edited the rest of the pictures so for now I'll leave you with my NOTD using Blue Frosting.

Ayer fui a la tienda con mi novio porque queríamos hacer hamburguesas ahora. Cuando voy a la tienda siempre paso por la área de los cosméticos y encontré unos nuevos esmaltes de Sally Hansen! Los colores que compre son Blue Frosting, All Aglow y Tender Teal.

Trate de hacer unos swatches pero las fotos no me salían bien! :( Para mientras las dejo con mi NOTD usando el esmalte Blue Frosting!

 Sorry for the horrible pictures...and as always, thanks for reading! <3
