Guest Post by Swatch Me Now: Barielle Falling Star Swatch And Review

It's Sunday and today is the reason why we came to the east coast - our good friend is finally getting married, and we're here to celebrate!  He's a good friend of DH's and was the DJ at our wedding, and we're so incredibly happy to share this special day with him!  We'll be spending the day celebrating in Asbury Park while my family stays at the beach house to watch LO.

While I'm out enjoying myself, I have a post for you form the lovely Melissa from Swatch Me Now. Over to you Melissa!

Hi, I'm Melissa of Swatch Me Now! I'm very excited that Thithi has asked me to do a guest post for her blog! Her blog is one that I really enjoy looking at. Her swatches are always amazing and those nails, I am jealous of how perfect they look.

Today I have a really special polish. It was, until a week ago, my biggest lemming. I've wanted Barielle Falling Star for a few years now. I could have easily bought it online, but I never did for some reason. I was so happy when I found it in a Barielle pack at TJ Maxx. Onto pictures!

Falling Star is a blue creme polish packed with copper glitter. My pictures aren't exactly color accurate, the blue base is a little darker. Falling Star is simple, but the combination is unique. My mind is blank when I try to think of a dupe. It's beautiful and it definitely makes me think of a starry sky. The polish itself was thick and application wasn't the easiest. It didn't apply as smoothly as I would have liked. There was some dragging but overall, it wasn't too much of a pain. Being that it was thick, I only needed two coats. The drying time wasn't incredibly fast, but it wasn't slow either. I used one coat of Gelous and one coat of Orly for a glossy finish.

So, did Falling Star live up to my expectations? It sure did! I really, really love it. I can see why so many other people do as well. This is a situation where I don't even care if the formula isn't perfect. It's just awesome, period.

Thank you Thithi for asking me to do a guest post on your blog! I hope you're enjoying your vacation.

How awesome is that mani?  Falling Star is a polish that I've been meaning to try forever as well. Thank you Melissa for a wonderful post!!  Please make sure you check out her blog and subscribe, she has super cute manis and posts great pics of her hauls and her sweet puppy Carter.  Head over there now and take a look!

P.S.  Does this look similar to Kunimitsu Lucky Goldfish or is just me?
