| Sinful Colors - Blue La La |
Ladies, this one's a two-fer. I like to do an "accent nail" sometimes, just for fun. Since my
Sinful Colors haul last month, I've been playing around with all of the colors. My favorite of the bunch is this gorgeous blue shade, Blue La La. The silver one, Out of this World, is nice too.
I applied a base coat and two coats of Blue La La, followed by a top coat. Application was smooth, and two coats gave me complete opaque coverage. I didn't get any chips or tip wear at all until about the fifth day, which is pretty good for me. I have no complaints about this polish!

| Sinful Colors - Out of this World |
Well, this is still the same manicure, but here I'm holding Out of this World, the silver shade. I actually had to do three coats of this one to get enough opacity to stand up to the gorgeous blue. You could really get away with just two coats if you don't mind a bit of sheerness. Other than the fact that I get cranky when I have to do three coats, I can't complain about this lovely metallic shade, either.
I bought these with the thought that they might be in
my season, Soft Summer. What do you think?

| Blue La La and Soft Summer fan |
Blue La La is fairly close to ss7.9 but it's not as purpled, and it's probably a bit bright.
 |
| Out of this World and Soft Summer Fan |
Out of this World compares to ss3.1, though it's cooler for sure.
Of course, when you're shopping for your season, you're not supposed to match things to the tiny squares. You're supposed to look for harmony with the entire fan.

| Looking for harmony |
I'd say both colors are not quite Soft Summer shades. They are close enough not to look garish, and I will wear them both, but I can't recommend them as Soft Summer nail polishes. I just don't see the harmony I look for.
Still, both polishes are great quality, on par with much more expensive polishes I've tried. And, the colors are lovely, if you're in the market for a fun blue creme shade and a metallic silver.
