Smitten Polish Pink Goes Good With Green Swatch And Review

Happy Friday!  I am really looking forward to Sunday because I need a morning to sleep in.  Those mornings are so far and few between now with the baby and it will be really appreciated after a week of jetlag and recovery from work and vacation.  There's definitely truth when I say that I need a vacation from my vacation!

I love contrasting colors and when I heard that Smitten Polish released a color called Pink Goes Good With Green, my interested was piqued.  It doesn't hurt that the base color is green, one of my favorite colors.  It's a lovely light mint green crelly with varying sizes of pink and gold hex glitters and a smattering of gold squares.  The formula was a little tricky - slightly thick with a tendency to streak and develop bald patches.  I used two thin coats followed with a thick third coat and finished with a layer of Poshe.

I wish the green was a tiny bit darker, less pastel-ly, and I think next time I'll try swatching it over a darker green cream to see if I can get that effect.  Overall though, it's a soft and feminine color that is fun to wear any time of the year.  The formula was a little disappointing, but still workable and it won't deter me from trying out more Smittens in the future.

  1. Pink really does go good with green! It's such a pretty combination. I definitely need to pull out my bottle soon and give it a try.

    1. I love the combination as well, I only wish there was a bit more color contrast. Hopefully your bottle gives you the effect that I'm looking for!
