Pedal Faster Suzi!

Name: Pedal Faster Suzi!

Collection: Holland 2012

Colour: Light Rose Shimmer

Coats: 3

Pros: A very pretty, subtle pink with a hint of shimmer. The formula is pretty thin so it takes about 3 coats, but it isn’t too watery for application. This pink has just enough shimmer for excitement, but it is still sophisticated enough that for a formal occasion or lovely spring day.

Cons: It’s a very light pink so if you want to make a statement, this is not a good choice. Although it lasts quite long, it starts to wear off instead of chipping.

Similar shades: Quite similar to “Aphrodite’s Pink Nightie” which is a frosted rose pink or OPI “Shanghai Shimmer” adds a bit of mauve to the frosty rose.

Give Me The Moon

Name: Give Me The Moon

Collection: Night Brights

Colour: Pale Periwinkle

Coats: 3+

Pros: A lovely romantic, whimsical periwinkle with an iridescent sheen and pale gray undertones. I love how this colour allows me to branch away from the regular pinks and reds without going for something too bold or something boring. It is a subtle, pretty colour, made more exciting with its pearly finish.

Cons: I really like how it looks on my fair skin but I’ve heard that it doesn’t go very well with medium skin tones. Also don’t be fooled by how this colour looks in the bottle as it seems like a flat blue-gray but looks very different on nails. Finally, this polish takes a few coats to reach full opacity. In the pictures I have 2 coats on, but it is still rather sheer.

Similar Shades: OPI “Sheer Your Toys” from their Hollywood Toyland collection is almost identical to GMTM, while “Moon over Mumbai” is a good choice if you want less blue and a plain creamy look.
