Borghese Nail Polish Swatches - Limoncello and Stellare Notte
I purchased these polishes from Ulta a couple weeks ago while they were on BOGO sale. They are actually quite pricey and cost just as much as OPI polishes so I took advantage of the sale to snag these beautiful shades that I've been eyeing for a little while.
Limoncello is a bright yellowish green with shimmers. Such a pretty color and looks absolutely stunning on the nails! You get a good pigmentation and even coverage with 2 coats. This is one of those less common polish shade out there and you probably won't find too many dupes for it. This is apparently a fast dry polish formula but stupid me didn't even take notice of how long it took to dry cause I was only swatching.
Stellar Notte is not your typical dark polish. It's not a deep black but more like a greyish black with green and magenta shimmers. The combination of colors makes this polish a bit more multi-dimensional. At first it reminded me of Chanel Black Pearl but with more of a magenta sheen to it. Depending on the angle, you will see more green or more purple shimmers. It's quite beautiful and looks a lot prettier in person.
One last thing I would also like to note is that the brush is similar to that of OPI, making application a breeze. I'm quite impressed with these two shades and I would love to try more of this brand if I can find a shade that tickle my fancy and if I can get them on sale. I would definitely recommend you check these out.

These polishes look rather nice. I like the look of Stellar Notte. I like how it's not the typical ordinary black, but a greyish one with green and magenta shimmers. I think you capture that beautifully in your pictures! Limoncello just takes my breath away. Just gorgeous!
