Nails Inc - Instyle Bluebelle

Periwinkle blue creme


I know it's only February and temperatures here are still in single figures, but we've had some sunshine, the snowdrops are out and it's my Birthday this week so I'm celebrating with a gorgeous springy colour from last year.

Bluebelle was a covermount gift with the June 2012 issue of InStyle magazine, there were two other colours available, a bright pink and a peach creme.  But this was the standout for me.  I *love* this kind of bluey/purple.







Bluebelle is a gorgeous periwinkle blue creme


Swatch shown is 2 coats with no top coat.  Like most pastel cremes this was a little streaky and tricky to apply but you can see it evened out nicely on the second coat.

When I first got this I thought it was going to be dupey for something else in my nails inc collection but nada. It's certainly in the same colour family as Chalk Farm but much lighter.

In fact this is so pretty I may have to resort to ebay for a backup
