Reswatch: Essie Splash of Grenadine and Marabou

Hi to my new readers who moseyed over from PoP! I hope you are not disappointed with my swatches after reading Piff's glowing description of them LOL. I've reswatched most of my polishes recently and have been posting them over the last few weeks :)

I've been on a no-buy for the month of April (in fact, you can join the no/lowbuy club over on NB, where we update each other a couple times a week on our status :)) so no new pretties until next month! There's still lots to love in my existing stash, though :)

Edit: GUYS! Get yer lil' butts over to Hautelook and buy the BeautyBar.com $40 gift certif for $20! That site sells Lippmann and Butter London with free ship over $39! If you don't have an account yet and have no one else to give a referral to, here's my link to Hautelook (it gives me $10 if you purchase something), but it doesn't matter if you go through me or not. Just buy it!! *ends enabling*

So a couple more Essies today... first,

a hit:

Essie Splash of Grenadine - An unexpected love for this polish from the Resort collection last year. Sooo beautiful, I love it. Perfect formula.



and a miss:

Essie Marabou - This colour is just awful on my skin tone! It looks slightly better in the picture, but in real life... *shudder*. 4 coats (a little too much work for me!)
