Sinful Colors - Muse

Looking back I'm not quite sure why I picked up this particular shade while on holiday with my husband in Naples, Florida.  I assume it was my desire to try some lacquers by Sinful Colors to form my own opinion about them. 

 

 

 

Not too long ago I posted the first of my Sinful Colors collection "Rainstorm" , a very unique blue tone.  Gorgeous in its own right!  Personally, I was very impressed with both the shades - Rainstorm and Muse, which I will present to you today.  The application was awesome and easy, the staying power was great and the dimension of the both shades was excellent, meaning there was a lot more to the actual shade than appeared in the bottle (if that is clear to anyone).

 

"Rainstorm" by Sinful Colors- 2 coats shown here.

 

"Muse" also by Sinful Colors - 2 coats show here as well.

 

 

Although it might not appear so in these photos, the bottle looked as if there would be much more of a grey undertone to the shade.  In these outdoor shots I see a deep, dark mocha shade.  Not being a "brown"-loving person myself, I was amazed at how much I like this colour. 

 

If you haven't tried any Sinful Colors yet (but I'm quite sure you have!), do it.  You won't regret the purchase at all.  The quality is great.

 

As usual, I always follow up with an application of TIPS Nail Conditioner to treat the cuticles.

Sinful Colors - Rain Storm 1053

Upon adding this somewhat dreary shade to my collection I was very spectical about my feelings toward it.  I definitely love the "blues", but this one kept staring at me on my shelf of polishes saying "Try me, you'll like me!"

 

Finally the day came when I decided to give it a whirl, and boy, was I amazed at how much I loved this lacquer on my nails.

It's hard for me to describe this gorgeous shade.   When I was applying it thoughts of my favourite blue jeans came to mind.  It's not a blue that screams at you, but rather subtle, subdued yet very functional and versatile for anyone's wardrobe.

 

As you can see here against my outdoor bricks, it would pair famously with any shades of grey.

 

When doing a manicure, I always make sure I stay clear of my cuticles since nail polish is extremely drying for your cuticles.  Following each mani I do a quick application of TIPS Nail Conditioner in order to treat the cuticles and skin around my nails.

 

Lisa's Tip of the Day: 

If you are using TIPS Nail Conditioner (or TIPS for Toes for your finger nails),  there is no need to apply a hardener/strengthener-type nail care product to your nails.  TIPS will do that and much more for your nails:  it fortifies, nourishes, hydrates, strengthens, protects them against the damage of water, and replenishes the lost lipids giving them strength yet keeping them flexible.
