Color Club Poptastic Day 7: Poptastic

Color Club Poptastic Day 7.
Today is the final Poptastic day. This is the polish called Poptastic. It is a bright neon medium pink.
Color Club Poptastic - Sunshine

This is my favourite of the Poptastic collection. It is a bright neon medium pink. This is 3 coats. 2 coats was ok but 3 evened it out and it was so smooth afterwards. This is another slightly runny polish. Dry time is quick and like I said it dries nice and smooth.

This is brighter in real life than it appears in the photos. This to me is the most neon of the 7 polishes. When I think of neon I cant help but only associate it with highlighters. I love highlighters.

All up this is a cute little selection from the larger Poptastic range. I was suprised at the difference in the thickness of these polishes over the 7. But all the colours are cute, and wearable. Now I just have to wait for nicer weather to take advantage of the summer colours coming out.

So that ends our 7 days of Poptastic. What was your favourite of the 7? Would you wear these? In summer or all year round?

Lots of Love

Color Club Poptastic Day 6: Pucca-licious

Color Club Poptastic Day 6.
Color Club Pucca-licious - Medium creme purple.

Color Club Pucca-licious - sunshine

This is 2 coats. This one had the best consistency of all 7 polishes. One coat gave good coverage but 2 was perfect. Dry time was quick, but it dries with a slightly matte finish.

This polish is not what I would call 'neon' and doesn't seem overly 'bright' either. It is just purple.
This is a more blue than OPI Funky Dunkey, and a bit lighter.

6 polishes down, 1 left to go tomorrow.

Enjoy your Friday :)

Color Club Poptastic Day 5: Warhol

Color Club Poptastic Day 5.
Color Club Warhol. This is a darker neon bright pink. This is one of my favourites from the Poptastic collection.


This is 2 coats. There is a slight visible nail line after two coats, I think this is more because it is slightly runny so the coats are thinner. A third coat would be perfect, but two works fine. This is more neon and brighter than some of the other polishes in this collection, and I like it. It is a neon you could wear every day and it wouldn't be too out there.

Color Club Poptastic Day 4: Almost Famous

Color Club Poptastic Day 4:

Almost Famous - Bright Dark Yellow - not so much 'neon', but definitely bright.

Color Club Almost Famous - Sunshine

Yellows are notoriously hard to get right. This one is interesting. It was quite runny, but very opaque at the same time. The 1st coat went on streaky, the second coat was better, but I ended up doing 3 coats to make a smoother finish. But surprisingly there is no visible nail line after 2 coats. The colour is dense.

I think as a yellow creme Color Club have done a good job with this one. I'm glad it is not thick and gluggy like other yellow polishes are. This is the darkest yellow in my collection.

Can you believe we have had two sunny days in a row! AMAZING! but still freezing cold, you can still see your breath outside when you breath (even at 11 in the morning).

How do you feel about yellow cremes? Yay or Nay? Would you give this one a chance? Or is it just a tad too bright for you?

Lots of Love

Color Club Poptastic Day 3: Chelsea Girl

Color Club Poptastic Day 3
Color Club Chelsea Girl. Wow can you believe that it has been clear blue sky here all day today. Although it is still freezing cold. I took this picture this morning as there was a big slip at the bottom of my street so had to wait a while for the road to open so I could get a bus to uni :(

Color Club Chelsea Girl - sunshine

This is three coats. This was on the runny side, and for such a dark colour I cant believe that it needed three coats to get rid of any visible nail line (this was three thin to medium coats). It was not streaky at all and the dry time was quick.

This is the darkest colour in the 7 piece Poptastic collection I have. Not so much 'neon' but definitely a 'bright'. I really want to layer something over the top of this as it seems like it would make a great base coat for something. Its now on my list of things to do.

Chelsea is my favourite name - I plan on naming my first born girl Chelsea!

Color Club Poptastic Day 2: Wham! Pow!

Color Club Poptastic Day 2.
The second polish I tried from the Color Club Poptastic Collection was the bright orange Wham! Pow!
Color Club Wham! Pow! - sunshine

This polish was much runnier than yesterdays Twiggie (I'm using this as the standard, but it really was thick). This is 2 coats and there was a slight visible nail line. This was not streaky at all. It is slightly less yellow than the picture shows, so is nicer in real life. I feel this is the most 'neon' of this 7 piece set. It is by far the brightest. I do not have any other polishes in my collection to compare this to, so in that sense it is unique (to me). This polish is definitely a summer polish. Yay I cant wait for summer.

Lots of Love
