Another day, another Australis feature on ze blog.... I blog about Australis WAY too muchhhhhh.
I'm sporting Blue Tiger on ma nails today! It's a bright medium blue which screams "BAM! Look at me ho"... just kidding! I was quite strucked by its semi-matte finish, but I quite like it for this colour! If you're not a matte-lover, there's nothing a top coat can't fix :P
As for the formula, it applied beautifully. I never used to be a fan of Australis' nail lacquers, but I'm starting to convert. I remember the fewer first shades I tried by Australis were disgusting. Eeeeep. Thank Lord they've improved it, or it'll be a shame for they have some of the prettiest shades!
I've paired Blue Tiger with Shimmy Shake, a sliver glitter top coat which was also fantastic in terms of quality! I didn't think I'd like it that much, but I loveeee how it looks on the nails! Almost like leftover silver specks, yes?!
As much as I do love glitters, I think it's time to take a break from them. I'm kinda sick of them when it comes to removal (aren't we all?)... On a side note, take a look at my Australis' nail polish collection!!
Yes, I am quite a collector! *ahem* Hoarder, more like it. *ahem*
What are your FAVOURITE blue nail polishes?!
Please share with me some of your favourite blues! I've been quite liking blue nail polishes latelyy. I've never really noticed how gorgeous they are until I've started using these candy blue colours.
Australis Nail Colours are $7.95 each. Available at Priceline, Target, Big W and K-Mart.

I have Blue Tiger! The matte finish is a bit weird but I do like the colour. My other favourite blues are both Mode Cosmetics cheapies - a teal and an aqua blue.
ReplyDeleteLovely! I absolutely adore Sally Hansen Pacific Blue. It's actually quite similar to Blue Tiger! I also really like Revlon Royal.

Omg you have so many polishes. How do you store them? That colour looks really nice, I don't really have a favourite blue polish though.

Ooh that is so pretty! I didn't know Australia did semi matte textures, I'll have to pick this up. I have Aqua from them, it's a light blue and I was so surprised it lasted several days without chipping and without a topcoat.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! It reminds me of the ocean :)

:O sick collection! I still haven't found my perfect blue nail polish yet..closest at the moment is Sportsgirl's in Cobalt
ReplyDeleteOooh, your nails are gorgeous! The colour is lovely and the glitter is definitely right up my alley :)
ReplyDeleteI seem to always gravitate towards blues for my nails - some of my favourite blues are Butter London - Blagger and Sportsgirl - Cobalt :)
On a side note, I love your storage in the last photo - where did you get it from? I'm desperate for a new storage solution

My favourite blue is probably Revlon's Royal. I don't wear blues much, I find they stain badly. I think I need a better base coat!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous nail polish! Ahh!! I love your collection!!! >w<

It's thanks to you for blogging so much about Australis, because I've been buying makeup from the brand quite frequently lately :P I used to think this was a crappy Aussie brand but it's not bad actually!
ReplyDeleteI like that this shade turns into a semi-matte because it looks better that way me thinks.
