I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

Claire's Pastel Shimmer Set -Yellow





This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (4-5 minutes a coat). At first I thought it was yellow then I thought it was gold! It's a golden yellow! The brush is really good and the lid is comfortable to hold. The polish has a subtle shimmer, but this was hard to see in real life. It's not really a colour I suit well and I wasn't that keen on it. Lasted well.

  3. Well, it seems to me, this colour is something between yellow and a pale gold. However I tend to yellow ;o).

    Kind regards,

  5. I like this yellow; I like yellows from time to time. I see it more yellow, less gold.

  10. I like this! I actually really like yellows with a bit of shimmer, sometimes I think it can be much more flattering then flat yellows! xx

  12. I'm not entirely sold on this polish, not really sure why, since I usually like both yellows and golds!

  13. I'm not really a fan of this shade either personally... i'm kind of surprised that it only needed 2 coats though! but i guess thats because its more of a golden yellow and has some metallic in it... rather than just a yellow creme which tends to be disastrous in terms of application haha
