Chanel Peridot & Nicole's Brilliant Idea

This is Chanel Peridot with and accent nail in Nicole's Brilliant Idea. Peridot one of the three polishes in Chanel's Fall 2011 collection. The other polishes include Graphite (which I'll review on a later date) and Quartz. Quartz didn't do much for me so I never picked it up. Peridot is one of the more interesting colors in my opinion because it changes between gold and green depending on how the light hits it. I found the formula to be far superior to Chanel's past polishes which is a plus.  Nicole's Brilliant Idea is a Target exclusive and it's one of my favorites. It consists of fine, lime colored glitter with larger hex pieces scattered throughout.

Barry M Nail Effects - 315 & Rimmel - Forrest

I would like to make my first post for Jessica. She was sweet enough to send me these polishes all the way from Northern Ireland.

First off is Rimmel - Forrest. The formula was smooth and the brush was flawless. It's a darker green with green shimmer and it was opaque in 3 coats.

Next up is Barry M Nail Effects in 315. My picture doesn't do this one justice. It's actually more periwinkle in person, but my camera has a hard time picking up the purple tomes. I like the way this polish cracks in comparison to other crackle/shatter polishes because it cracks enough for the base color can come through for a nice contrast.
