Color Club Yum Gum



Today I have Color Club's Yum Gum to show you! Yum Gum is from the scented Wicked Sweet collection released earlier this year.




As you can guess, Yum Gum smells like bubblegum. My Dad is an avid gum-chewer so while wearing this polish it made it feel like my Dad was around. It was quite a nice feeling I suppose, a little freaky though when I was out shopping. 




This was two coats. The formula was a little bit on the thick side, but it gave quite good coverage and it balances itself out.

Color Club Get Your Lem-on



Today we have one of Color Club's polishes from their Wicked Sweet collection, Get Your Lem-on. This collection is scented, quite nicely too.


I'm not one for yellows or neons so I'm going to be as rational as possible in this review. The scent in Get Your Lem-on is really nice. I think it smells like lemonade (my fave fizzy drink). It's a very sweet and delicate lemonade though. I didn't think the scent was as strong as Gimme a Grape Big Kiss or Wicked Sweet. It was much lighter.

Get Your Lem-on's formula was alright. I did find it to be a little on the sheer side. You can still see my tips vaguely and this is three coats. It did however have the typical Color Club formula, very smooth and manageable. 

Lem-on also has a faint shimmer, I can't tell if it's blue or green but it doesn't come out too strongly against the neon yellow base. I was thinking that this polish might actually look really good layered over another neon, I will have to try it!


So after all of that, Get Your Lem-on is a good polish, just not for me :)

Color Club Gimme a Grape Big Kiss



Gimme a Grape Big Kiss was my favourite out of the three I got to try. It smelled delicious and my boyfriend really liked it too. We thought it smelt like the grape Hubba Bubba bubblegum crossed with the purple Nerds lollies. Nerds are one of my favourite kinds of lollies so I don't mind carrying that smell around with me all day!




Gimme is a super shiny polish. I just loved it. It's so glossy! I kind of want a lipstick this colour. And maybe some shoes this colour.




Depending on your monitor it may look more pink or more purple. On my one a home it looks almost the exact same shade as it is in real life but at my parents, it looks much more pink. So just remember that Gimme is definitely a purple, a fuchsia-purple but most definitely a purple.


Just a reminder that it is my last week for the semester next week so Nail Juice will probably be a little bit quiet, but I have some really exciting shades to show you after I put my A into G and finish my projects! Also mum is heading over to Australia soon, so hello Illamasqua and Make Up Store!

Color Club Wicked Sweet



I thought I'd start this collection off with it's name sake, Wicked Sweet! I also have Gimme a Grape Big Kiss and Raspberry Rush to show you later.




Wicked Sweet really stumped me on what the scent was. My boyfriend and I thought it was a bit blueberry-ish but didn't have a strong enough smell to say for sure that it is blueberry. So we hunted around for what other bloggers thought and they said blueberry or blue raspberry.


Formula wise, it's great. Just the same as Pure Energy, nice thickness and smoothness to it.




But, hello! We've seen you before haven't we? Above is my beloved Pure Energy, the non-scented version of Wicked Sweet


With the scent of Wicked Sweet I swear I could taste it when I was just nibbling on my fingertip but then realised it was the finger with Pure Energy on, lol. I don't know what I was tasting...
