Swatch: Picture Polish Picks - part 1

If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook you may have seen this picture:

It is a picture of three fantastic nail mails all with picture polishes inside. I needed to do something really good for myself, so it was definitely expensive, but I'm so happy :)

For todays swatch post I will show you Grace, Lizzie, Pandora and Bette

I have bought Picture Polish from NorwayNails, cleanskin.dk and color4nails

"Grace" - is a very light pink scattered holo - I have always wanted such a polish and this is perfect! When you try to photograph it it wants to look more nude than it is, so that was a bit challenging sadly but I did my best. It needs three coats to cover completely.

"Lizzie" - is a light purple scattered holo. I will be honest to you, I had to buy this, because of the name (same reason why I need to get Eyre one day even though I really don't like the polish), cause I looooove the old english heroine stories. The color could have been more vibrant and in needs 4 coats of polish to cover completely, but I don't mind, I love Lizzie anyways. It's a mental thing.

Here shown in shade:

"Pandora" - is the most pretty purple scattered holo I have come across yet! Two coats of polish and your nails are having a party right until you remove the polish again. The base and the holo particles mix very well together. See the pictures and you will understand. First pictures are shown in direct sunlight:

I wanted to see how close "Pandora" was to Zoya "Aurora", so in this picture I have Aurora on the ring finger. I actually prefer Pandora much to Aurora. In the picture there is two coats of pandora in finger 1, 2 & 4 and three coats of Aurora on finger 3.

"Bette" - is a blue scattered holo. I had hoped this would have been more unique, it is always this kind of light holo blue you see and it's hard for my skintone to pull off. I would have liked it to be more true blue as this color almost leans turquoise. Besides that it needed 3-4 coats to cover completely so that could also have been much better. But I will find some use for it. First pictures are in direct sunlight:
