Into the Night

Name: Into the Night

Collection: Spider Man

Colour: Bright Sapphire Shimmer

Coats: 2

Pros: This sapphire blue shimmer fits really well into the Spider Man theme because it really does look like you are wearing a piece of Spiderman’s iconic suit. It lasted really well and earned lots of compliments

Cons: The formula was a bit watery so it was difficult to control. This meant I had to go through the extra step of touching up where the polish pooled on the edges of my nails.

Similar Shades: OPI Ink and Russian Navy are similar but they appear darker and have more violet in them.

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.
