And so my search began for a replacement. Naturally, I tried not to stray from Sally and eventually found a color that suited my comfort zone and had great staying power. So, my second "love" was:
Sally Hansen - Sweet Tulip
Picture shows 3 coats
Base Coat: None
Top Coat: No name brand
I will post a wear test soon, but the picture above is from Day 7. Here are a few more with different lightening and a slightly different nail length.
What a great clean color. It suits just about any nail length, from nubbins to talons. I have owned at least 12 bottles of this shade and always buy at least two when I am running low. I have of course collected other brands in this type of color, but am yet to be convinced. I just have not worn the other brands as long. Before I switch I need to make sure its works for me. In my mind that means at least giving a whole bottle worth of wear (if not two).
OPI - Funny Bunny
Essie - Waltz
Sally Hansen - Sweet Tulip
Revlon - Sheer Pink
I could wear this color for the rest of my life, as long as it looked perfect of course.
You have beautiful nails. I have never seen such love for one specific nail polish :)))
ReplyDeleteWhat do you think about Essie Waltz? Hope to see swatches with it soon :))
I know right, clearly my obsession is more nail care based.
ReplyDeleteOOohh, I will put up some swatches of Essie Waltz soon and definitely wear test in the near future! Thanks for the recommendation.
Да, 20 бутылок одного и того же лака - это действительно Любовь! И 12 сейчас СХ Sweet Tulip - вы молодец.
ReplyDelete:)
ReplyDeleteDo you have a favorite? Or do you love them all equally?
Конечно, есть любимчики, но 20 бутылочек - нет, такого нет. Максимум 2-3 пузырька использую.
ReplyDeleteКстати - можно писать на русском? Я так поняла, что да. Вы понимаете?
Я могу писать и читать Россия язык с карандашом, но не на компьютере. Это предложение было сделано на Google Translate. Простите, он не правильно грамматически.
ReplyDeleteSorry :) Я думала, что русский - ваш родной язык...
ReplyDeleteIt is my first language, but no longer my dominate one. I have lived in the US for over twenty years now and was only ~7 years old when I came. So, there were many things I didn't know or have forgotten over the years. I only speak and read it now, and even that is getting shaky since I don't use it often.
ReplyDeleteWow, now you really have me giving these colors a second look. I still haven't found a go-to color for the simple clean look when I don't want to wear color. One of these might work!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely! These colors would look great on your long nails. If you aren't a rich lady already you can look like one with these sheer whites (IMHO)!
ReplyDelete:0 I find it interesting that you seek a sheer white, when most of us are looking for the perfectly opaque white!
ReplyDeleteAnd your nails look amazing. They look incredibly strong! What's your secret!!
I know, most people hate VNL, but I like the way it peaks through the sheer white. But, don't get me wrong there is a time and a place for all nail polish colors.
ReplyDeleteMwa hahaha that secret is mine, all mine! Actually, that's really the reason I started this blog. I want everyone to be able to have gorgeous nails and show them off. I will cover what worked for me and got rid of my peeling, breaking, etc., in the nail hardener series of posts! :)
Do they still make Sweet Tulip? If so where can you get it?
