Claire's Mood Polish | Photos and Giveaway Update!


Hello beauties!

This is a picture heavy post, but it is worth it I promise.  :o)

I am wearing Daring/Innocent and this color is gorgeous!  I never thought a grey would look good on me, but even my husband said this was sexy.

I was going to swatch this then the pink and then the teal color, but I don't have the heart to take this off yet.

Like the others it goes on quite thick and dries within seconds (I love that).  A coat of Seche Vite and I have my nails glossed up and ready to go.

Here are some photos of Daring/Innocent on me, Peaceful/Confident (Teal) and Fabulous/Funky (Pink) on my husband.


This is my hand actually warming up for once in our house.
 

  

  

  

  


This is how my hand usually is...freezing.
  

Here are photos where I ran my frozen mitts under warm water.
  

  

  

This is why my hands are usually frozen.  My husband is always hot, and I've convinced myself that blankets will always work.
  

Here is his hand with the Teal and Pink Mood polish.  I tried to dip his hand in cold water, but by the time I got my camera to focus, his hand was already warm.  :-/
  

  

You can see a teeny difference here.
  


 Now!  I know so many people are overseas and may have a hard time getting their hands on these polishes so I am adding a second and third prize.

I grabbed what I could at a different Claire's, which wasn't much.  I'm sorry for that.

For the 1st prize winner I am adding a bottle of Sech Vite since these dry matte/satin.

2nd prize winner will receive:
Fabulous/Funky (Pink)
Peaceful/Confident (Teal)
Happy/Earthy (Green)

3rd prize winner will receive:
Fabulous/Funky (Pink)
Happy/Earthy (Green)

If you haven't entered yet, you can do that right here:

Good luck!!

Claire's Mood Polish | Happy & Earthy


Here I have on Claire's Mood Polish in Happy and Earthy.  I would describe the green as rye grass and the warmed color is definitely highlighter yellow.  Youch!  The color is blinding and a big shift from one to the other.  This polish has a matte/velvet finish like you would find with neons, and I would recommend putting this over white so you don't have any VNL.


This color is not even close, but you can see that there is a difference.  All of these photos were taken while I had Popsicle hands and the tips changed colors because I was trying to warm up my hands over the heater causing my nail edges to warm up.


Crazy color changing.

Claire's Mood Polish | Wild & Calm


Last week I wore Claire's Calm & Wild Mood Polish. I have to say that I am very impressed by the drastic change in color of all the Mood Polishes by Claire's. They dry to a matte/velvet finish and they dry very quickly. I was sitting with my boss and she noticed the ombre effect my nails were taking on due to my hands actually had circulation for once while the office was cold. The effect is very noticeable. My pictures do not do any of these polishes justice.




Here it is outside.
