Sparitual North Star - Swatch

I almost didn't buy it but the more I stared at it the more I wanted it. North Star is a medium purple with purple and pink shimmers and a grey undertone. What's interesting about this color is that it almost appear like a duochrome because it has such a gorgeous depth and dimension to it. It applies sheer but 3 coats is enough for opaque coverage. I did experience a bit of patchiness between the first and second coat so the third coat also help spreading the color even.
Love the color. The shimmers are a little more vibrant in person than in the pictures.

Price: $12.00

Sparitual Swatch - Endless Possibilities and Undercurrent

About a week ago, I went to TJ Maxx and decided to scoop two more Sparitual nail polishes. They were $3.99 each. I gotta say I am very pleased with the Sparitual formulas. They are nearly perfect!

Endless Possibilities is a very dark plum color that looks almost black after 3 layers. The formula is more of a jelly cream. Not too thick or thin but fairly saturated, easy to work with, and opaque in two coats. First, coat is much lighter but a bit streaky. You could probably get away with just 2 coats but depending on your brush strokes you might need a 3rd coat to balance out some uneven spots. It's dark and vampy. A good base for layering.

Undercurrent is a dark dusky blue with a cream finish. It looks brighter on the photos but it's a bit darker in person. First coat is uneven but only require 2 coats for full opacity and even color. The formula was also very nice and easy to work with. Both of these polishes have a very high glossy shine to them without a top coat. Looooove it!

Sparitual Swatches - Muse and Shoot For The Stars

Few days ago, I scooped these polishes up from TJ Maxx. They were on sale for $3.99 a pot, which is a pretty awesome deal for a polish that used to cost $10.00.

I'm usually not a huge fan of neutral colors when it comes to polishes. I like bright, colorful, sparkly, and complex colors but I must admit that I thought Muse was quite beautiful. It's a shimmery brownish bronze color with gold and pink shimmers running through it. It's a little sheer, not too thin or thick, and I was able to get opaque coverage in 3 coats. Application was very easy and smooth. This shade has a very sophisticated appeal to it. Perfect for the office or anytime but this looks more like a fall color to me. If you're a fan of neutrals, you'll love this one.

Shoot For The Stars is a slightly dark purple with red undertone and a cream finish. It looks a little vampy but in a sexy kind of way. I wish I had a lip color that match. The formula is not too thick or thin but quite saturated. First coat is a bit  uneven but you can probably get away with 2 coats. I like it better with 3 since some areas look like they need more coverage, depending on your brush strokes. The formula flows easily and applies smoothly. I love the glossy shine it has even without the help of a top coat. This is another color that I would associate with fall.

Sparitual Nail Polish Swatches - Solaris and Eye of the Beholder

These are my first Sparitual nail polishes ever. I spotted these at TJ Maxx and they were sold for $3.99 each. Not too shabby, considering they retail for $10.00 a pot. Of course with that kind of deal, I didn't have much of a color choice.

Solaris is a glowy neon orange jelly cream. So bright that I think it hurts the lens of my camera. Awesome color for summer though. The formula was really nice and applied smoothly. Opaque in just 2 coats. It dries down to a semi opaque finish. The other color that I have that is similar or seem like a good dupe for this polish is Color Club Wham! Pow! 

Eye of the Beholder is a light pastel-ish yellow green with a cream finish. I don't think I have anything similar to this color. The closest might be Essie Navigate Her, but Eye of the Beholder is brighter and yellower. I think this makes a nice spring color.
Application was a bit challenging with this polish. The formula is on the thicker side and applied patchy and streaky. It also seem to dry quickly so you have to work quickly when you apply it; otherwise, it will pull and drag where you're trying to smooth it out. I have two coats on the swatch and it was very opaque. However, you can still see some streakiness. I might have to thin the formula down a bit and see if that helps with the application.

Own any Sparitual colors? If so which one would you recommend?
