CHINA GLAZE SUNSATIONAL JELLIES

I was fortunate enough to win a contest held on Twitter by Spa Boutique. The prize was a 6 piece set of China Glazes new SUNSATIONAL JELLIES, they also have a SUNSATIONAL CREMES collection too.

The first colour in the collection is

SHELL-O- A peachy, papaya perfect colour to make your nails look juicy and beautiful

 
I find out of all the colours this really makes your tan POP, take notice of the difference of my thumb from this picture to the next few.
 
 
HEAT INDEX- Is a hot pink reminiscent of geranium petals draped over each finger nail, fresh and sublime. How about a dozen plastic pink flamingo's adorning someone's front lawn in all their tacky splendor. That's what I think any way.
 
 
 
 
YOU DRIVE ME COCONUTS- Oddly this next colour is also a shade of hot pink but with a more blue/purple undertone. I have this on my toe nails and have had for almost 5 days and its finally looking like it needs to be removed. I do find that this colour and "heat index" are a lot a like. Instead of China Glaze doing two pink colours in one pack it would have been nice to see a bright yellow or lime green of sorts to balance out the colour range.
 
 
Also I find "You drive me coconuts" has the least "jellie" like finish and tends to be a tad more of a cream finish. It looks similar to a couple of hot pinks I already have in my existing collection. None the less I have enjoyed it on my toe nails.
 
 
 
 
ISLE SEE YOU LATER- True blue in a bottle, a sure hit for fans of all things nautical. Rich yet vibrant and will pair beautifully with a pair of chocolate brown strappy sandals.
 
 
I how ever have used so many different shades of blue polish I feel I have blue burn out. This colour would be my last choice at this particular time. To update I wore this on my toenails and it is my least favourable of all the colours and wears very poorly and the colour is weak unless you put on a ton of coats.
 
 
 
ARE YOU JELLY?- I think this should just have been named "Grape Jelly" because that's all I think of when I look at this is the infamous jar of Welch's grape jelly, but prettier. Its like a purple popsicle for your toes.
 
 
This will pair nicely with a touch of glitter over top, or maybe even try out your favorite nail stamping design.
 
 
 
and lastly is
 
KEEPIN'IT TEAL- What a gorgeous colour, but you will need to make sure to layer your coats. As you see in the photo the one coat is definitely not enough. I love teal colours for most things and this is no exception. Take a look at a photo of the Seychelles islands and the water surrounding it, it's as if it were captured in this bottle of polish. So treat your nails to a MANI-VACAY;)
 
 
I think this will be the next colour residing on my toe nails soon.
 
Out of all the colours in this collection I would say Shell-O is my fave and Keepin'It Teal holds a close second.
 
Do let me know if you have tried this collection or any of the crème ones? I would love to know what your favorite SUNSATIONAL colours are. If you haven't tried them let me know what colour you would love to try first???
