SWATCH: Caronia Sweet Bliss Collection

Hi everyone!  Happy Friday! It's getting really really hot and humid here! 10AM and its already 32 degrees outside. I heard it'll get worse by the day. I just don't know if I can take it anymore. I've been having rashes all over because of the heat! Anyway, Since it's super sunny outside, summer colors are perfect right now. And Caronia has something for that. It's the Sweet Bliss Collection. It has 6 lovely colors that you can choose from. I'll be showing you all 6!


First Crush - a rich lilac cream that's easy to apply, no fuss, and good drying time. A one-coater! A first from Caronia since all of their colors are too sheer! One coat was enough but I did two to even it out. And I love when the real color pops out. Please don't mind the weird index fingernail shape. I accidentally chopped it off again while preparing food. Yes, I'm clumsy and careless. =P


Like it?


Well I do.



But not as much as the next one.



On the Go - an aqua green cream that's really pretty! Application was ok, brush was ok and drying time's good too.  Did two coats for this look. I personally love this color! It was the first thing that caught my eye in this collection. 



And now that I think about it, it looks like Orly Viridian Vinyl, just not with the satin finish. I'll be doing a comparison for that on my next post.


Love it?


Too much pictures?


Maybe.


But not for me coz I love looking at it.



Sun Kissed - a pumpkin orange cream. Did 2 coats, formula and application was ok. I had some trouble taking pictures, with flash it looks neon. And without, it looks really different.



So this is with flash, looks really squishy and rubbery.


And this is without flash, a bright orange cream.


Don't get me wrong, I like this color too.

Its looks nice on me, I think.



Summer Fling - Coral red in color with a cream finish. A one-coater with good formula, application was ok too. 


I like this color too, but not as much as the others.


Maybe I'm just not a fan of this type of color.


Baby Pink - A salmon pink cream. Needed 3 coats for this. I find it sheer and a tad streaky. I like it the least in this collection. I was hoping that it was like Barbie pink in color, really bright and vibrant. But I got very disappointed with this color. Anyway, here's the nails. 


I tried liking it because it was pink.


But I just cant.

 Sweet Surprise - This one's the brightest of them all!! a lemon yellow cream. You'll see tiny iridescent shimmer while applying but when its dry, it just disappears. So its a cream for me. Application was ok, a one coater, but I did two to achieve this look. Formula and drying time's good too.  


It's THIS bright and I didn't even need to put a white base under it.


I thought I love On the Go, seems like I love Sweet Surprise the most!


Awesome. Just freaking awesome.



There you have it! The Caronia Sweet Bliss Collection. My final say? I love how they did their creams now, its already a one-coater, with really vibrant colors. This collection is a must have in your stash!

Oh and btw, all the swatches doesn't have a topcoat at all. Thanks for reading guys.

SWATCH: Caress Attraction

 Hi there ladies! 

I've been glittery and shiny this past few posts, so now, I'd like to have a cream post! See, I like creams too, although most of my polishes are glitters, shimmers and holos. Anyway, for today I have one of my beloved creams (just because of the color, not for the horrible formula) This is Caress Attraction.



Caress Attraction - a light taupe cream in color, application was ok. 


 

It was a little bit runny at first, manageable for me.


I love colors like this, it compliments my complexion.


Wear time? Ugh, dont ask. Just one day.




Anyway, hope you like this color too! I also had a chance to snag the whole Caronia Sweet Summer Bliss collection.
