Color Club Twiggie

A
At first when I saw that Twiggie was described as a mint green I thought it was a little odd to have a pastel in a neon collection. Surprisingly once applied it's sort of a pastel-neon if that makes any sense. 

Twiggie definitely isn't as bright as those lovely green highlighters from high school but also isn't quite as pale as MAC's Peppermint Patti. I think it would actually be closer to Orly's Mint Mojito. 

Twiggie gives good coverage, only two coats needed. This polish is a cream finish so you don't need a ridge filler to bring out the neon some more or to even it out as the formula is a little thick.

Although it is a slightly thick formula it is quite streaky on coat number one. Even using a ridge filler I still got streaks.

AVAILABLE EARLY SEPTEMBER IN THE 'POPTASTIC' COLLECTION WHICH WILL BE REPLACING THE CURRENT NEONS

Color Club Warhol

















Now this is a neon pink I can wear!

I loved wearing this one, love at first sight, even if it was only on one nail. A squishy jelly finish with only two coats necessary. I just had fun wearing Warhol, brightened up my day every time I caught a glimpse of it.

I can see Warhol being a popular choice for nails in Spring and Summer. Wouldn't it look so cute on your toes with your pretty sandals or jandals?















Once again my poor camera has let me down, Warhol has a little more of a redness to it, more fuchsia looking. It's kind of like OPI's Fuchsia Fling and Zoya's Morgan but with a punch!

Color Club Poptastic


Poptastic was actually my least favourite. I don't know what it is about neon pinks that I just can't bring myself to love them. Maybe because of the overuse of the pink highlighters in my school years?
Aside from that, Poptastic applies really easily and dries fairly quickly.

It does dry slightly matte so make sure you wear a top coat with Pop.















Not too much to say about Poptastic, a lot of other brands have made their own neon pinks so it's not too much of a unique colour. Poptastic isn't a bad polish, just not my fave :)

Color Club Chelsea Girl

















Chelsea Girl is quite scary at first. By that I mean on your first coat it's almost like you're applying water! But then somehow coat number two seems to make it all better. But then in saying that, you do get a cool jelly look going on. 

Chelsea Girl reminds me of the water slides we make down the hill at my parents house... 

















My photos make this polish look a little lighter than it really is. I'd say it has a tad more navy in it, and of course it looks more squishy in real life. Dumb camera.
