Face of Australia Barbados Collection Swatches

As you may remember when Big W had AUD$3 off Face of Australia products I purchased 7 polishes from the new Barbados collection.

Each of these swatches is without base and top coat. Two coats were used in each swatch. All photos taken in artificial light.


Calypso Gold

Calypso Gold is a gorgeous champagne colour with a gold shimmer. The gold shimmer didn't turn up well in my photos but you can see it in the bottle :) This is such a gorgeous light happy colour that I love!


Orange You Glad You Came

Orange You Glad You Came is a bright orange with a gold shimmer. First off please excuse my pinkie, I was trying to manoeuvre the bottle and manage to mash the nail polish on my pinkie :( Anyway this is a fantastic Summer colour in my opinion. Again the shimmer didn't photograph well but can be seem in the bottle. I was surprised at just how bright an orange this is! A definite happy colour :)


Bright Lights, Pink City

Bright Lights, Pink City is a pink jelly with gold shimmer. Yay, this time the gold shimmer actually showed up in my photos :) This one is sheerer than the others and after two coats still has VNL so you might want to use a third coat. I really loved this colour :)


Another Daiquiri Please

Another Daiquiri Please is a dark pink jelly leaning towards red with a delicate pink shimmer.  Like Bright Lights, Pink City this one is also very sheer and again could use three coats as there is still VNL. Another Daiquiri Please looks so juicy on the nail :)


I Like To Mauve It

I Like To Mauve It is a pink mauve with a silver shimmer. This was another one of my favourites, surprising since it's such a girly colour. Another pretty squishy pink :)



You Blue Me Away

You Blue Me Away is a light blue with a silver shimmer. It has more of a foil finish than the jellies in the rest of this collection. This was another one of my favourite and immediately went on my toes since my nails were already painted!


Let's Go Scuba Diving

Let's Go Scuba Diving is a bright teal with a blue/green shimmer. Another gorgeous polish but this one reminds me of mermaids lol. Definitely a vacation celebration shade. Can't wait to wear this as a full manicure.



Overall

I love the colours in this collection! I have nothing like these shades already in my collection so I was so happy to pick thee up. The one shade I didn't pick up was Party At The Gap because I was after bright colours and I think I have similar colours to PATG already. Anyone else pick up any from this collection?

Snow Angel

Hello!!

Snow Angel by Lynnderella is problably one of the polishes I wanted the most when I first saw swatches of it! So I was super happy when I got it!

I layered it over 3 coats OPI Don't Touch My Tutu!, a dreamy white jelly.

Final verdict: The name of this polish is just so perfect. It looks so etheral, it could have been made in heaven. In another way, it also looks like some snow that is falling on your nails. It's a very delicate and sophisticated polish in my opinion. There are tones of glitters but it still look elegant because the glitters are not the in-your-face type of glitters. Here I perhaps overdid it because I used 3 coats of Snow Angel. I kept adding and adding glitters because I was so fascinated by them lol I think 1 thick coat or 2 thinner coats would have done the job as well! As with most Lynnderella, the formula was a real dream and the polish was easy to apply.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Snow Angel is a milky base (so it's not a clear base) packed with small and medium hexagonal, and medium squre glitters.
