Here I used Mellow Yellow from the Balm's line of "Hot Ticket" nail polish.
I picked it up on Hautelook last month for $5.
I also did a gradient & stamping combo on top, I'll show you that later this afternoon.
The formula on these Hot Ticket polishes is really good. This swatch only took 2 coats. It self levels easily and doesn't go on streaky like a lot of yellow polishes do.
How does it compare to one of my favorite yellows? China Glaze Lemon Fizz?
This is an older swatch pic, so that's why the length of my nails is so different.
Side by side?
Lemon Fizz is on the left, Mellow Yellow is on the right.
Mellow Yellow is noticeably lighter in color. Not dupes!
It's gorgeous - I'm nuts with this type of yellow at the moment LOL - I think that Nails Inc. Notting Hill Carnival and Barry M Lemon Ice cream might be pretty close to it...
ReplyDeleteI love this colour!!! It's funny that the name is "mellow yellow" because Essence has the exact same colour with the exact same name xD
ReplyDeleteI love this yellow! especially on your skin tone!
ReplyDeleteDo not like any colour yellow but like this one!
ReplyDeleteI love this yellow!! It looks really pretty on you. I've seen this brand in sets at TJ Maxx, but never picked it up.
ReplyDeleteNice colour!
ReplyDeleteI love yellow like this! Is very beautiful ;)
ReplyDeleteI usually don't like the yellow, but I must admitd, I like this. Kisses
ReplyDeletePretty colour!
ReplyDeleteThis post makes me feel like I should get some pale yellow polish. The color is nearly identical to China Glaze, which one do you think has a nicer formula?
