ASK Cosmetics: Romantic Sunset



Name: Romantic Sunset

Collection: Nailwear

Colour: Dusty Rose

Coats: 1

Pros: A lovely, dusty pink that is elegant and romantic. It works well for those of you who are busy and work in a professional setting as it is a fast drying, subtle pink for your collection. It provided great coverage and a thick glossy crème finish making it super easy to apply and wear.

Cons: This colour is quite understated so although it is practical it’s not eye catching or original. The name Romantic Sunset made me think of a more vibrant pink so I don’t think it is very original or fitting name.

Similar Shades:  OPI “Tickle My France-y” plays up the dusty, nude look of this polish while “Suzi Sells Sushi By the Seashore” is more of a shimmery rose pink.

ASK Cosmetics: Rich Sapphire


Name: Rich Sapphire

Collection: Nailwear


Colour: Cobalt

Coats: 2-3

Pros: I really liked the rich, deep blue shade of this polish and the name matches it perfectly.

Cons: I was not crazy about the formula of this polish. The other samples from this line are quick drying and provide great coverage in one coat, but this one was different. It had a thin consistency and did not distribute evenly on the nail so it appears more blue at the base. I also had to put on another coat and touch some nails up. Finally, the drying time was rather long which was tedious.

Similar Shades: little lighter than OPI “Roadhouse Blues” or try “Russian Navy” for the same colour with a bit of shimmer.

ASK Cosmetics: Classic Peacock

Pros: Another great formula and brush that make this polish easy to apply. Just one coat and I had full glossy coverage with a vibrant but classy colour.

Similar Shades: This ASK polish is similar to OPI’s “Ski Teal We Drop” but it has more green undertones than blue.

ASK Cosmetics: Oh So Aubergine


Name: Oh So Aubergine

Collection: Nailwear

Colour: Deep, Glossy Grape Purple

Coats: 1

Pros: I really love this thick, easy to apply formula! The brush holds the perfect amount of polish and allows for great precision. After just one coat I had a beautiful, glossy finish with full coverage. I didn’t have any problems with dulling or chips in the few days that I wore it. The colour came out a rich purple that wasn’t too bright and loud yet not too dark purple.

Cons: I have nothing bad to say for this one actually, it was great!

Similar Shades: This ASK polish is similar to OPI’s “Pamplona Purple” but a bit darker so it’s almost identical to “Honk If You Love OPI”
