Swatch: GOSH - Silky Mint

Hi ladies! I have a swatch post for you today that has been sitting in my 'to post' folder for the longest time now, so I think it's about time I let it have it's moment in the spotlight, don't you? Silky Mint is a medium toned, Mint Green creme. Released in the Fall 2010 collection, it's definitely a lot more suited to Spring than to Fall, in my opinion anyway. As with most GOSH polishes I have used, Silky Mint went on without any issues and was opaque in 2 coats. I used 3 coats for the photos below without a top coat.

I believe Silky Mint has been discontinued, but you can find it on eBay for below UK retail price. What are your thoughts on Silky Mint? Do you agree that it's more suited to Spring than Fall?

Swatch: BarryM - Mint Green

Natural Light - Shade

I have another polish for you from my swatch fest today! As the weather in the UK is slowly getting a little bit warmer, I thought it was time to get a couple Spring polishes up and what says 'Here comes the sun' better than BarryM - Mint Green.

Mint Green is a beautiful mint green pastel creme, when I first saw it on the shelves, I thought it looked similar to China Glaze - For Audrey, but when the bottles are together, For Audrey is definitely more blue.

Like all BarryM polishes, Mint Green applied like a dream *ooh rhyme* it was a lot more opaque than I thought it would be and I only needed 2 thick coats for the swatch. Drying time can vary with BarryM polishes, sometimes they can dry super quick, others can take a little more time but as I was sitting getting a little bit of a tan at the same time, I didn't really mind it too much ^.^

What are your thoughts on BarryM polishes? Love them or Loathe them? Let me know in the comments!
