Nubar - Baby Sprout

To be completely honest, I'd never given Nubar a second though until I saw talkbeckytalk wear Petunia Sparkle on Fleur's vlog channel. After that, I was so keen to pick that polish up that I ended up making a bit of an order, and Baby Sprout was randomly thrown in my cart. I wasn't sure how comparable this would be to Essie's Absolutely Shore (which I swatched here). Baby Sprout is definitely more of a brighter, more whitened green without any of the dustier tones of Absolutely Shore. Since it was so hot today, I really enjoyed looking down at the bright, almost icyness, of this colour. I really thought I had cleaned up my cuticles better though...haha!

Nail Polish Collection: High End Misc. [January 2013]

Chanel is one of my favourite brands. Quartz is my favourite nail polish of all time (I know, huge right!) and both Paradoxal and Lilac Sky make my top 10. Coconutty by Leighton Denny also makes it into my top 10, and some of the Butters are getting close! I didn't realise until typing out this post but you can see my fingers in all of the bottle caps! 

NOTE: I have to mention that I took all my photos in a crudely made lightbox. Well, I don't think you could call it a lightbox...it's two planks of white painted wood and a lamp with a daylight globe! So whilst I tried to get these as colour accurate as I could, some colours may be just a tad off. I'll try to let you know when that happens, otherwise just google image the colour you were looking at. Also, I took these photos freehand so I'm sorry that some are a little crooked..I hope it doesn't bother you as much as it bothered me!
