Swatch - Sally Hansen Gem Crush - Big Money

I'm going to make an odd confession - I fell in love with the shape of the bottle before the colour of the polish:) This was another Edinburgh find and was staring at me as I walked in the shop.

I love the combination of gold and lilac, it's so subtle yet so striking. It's incredibly dense - this is three coats, and there's no VNL (always important to moi!) so I'm happy. The gold glitter is very fine so the lilac hexes mix and intersperse well, meaning you don't get clumps of purple.

Oddly, this is a subtle polish - the lilac needs to be seen up close really, but gives a pinky glow to the polish from afar, very pretty. Enjoy the rest of your week peeps x x x

    2. I'll have a look in my local superdrug but it's not very big! Otherwise I'll have to plan it in to my next trip to Edinburgh - I work for East Coast trains so can get there for free, at least! Thanks for getting back to me :-) x

    3. That would be serious dedication; I really hope that you manage to find it in a more local Superdrug:)
