Wheel O4: Blue Shimmers

Nail Wheel Wednesday is back after last week's unplanned hiatus. It's time for blue, and I've got some shimmers from light to dark, with some of them leaning a bit toward the turquoise part of the spectrum.



1. Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Blackberry Creme (3 coats) [not a creme]
2. Claire's unlabelled (3)
3. Essie Blueberry Crumb (3)
4. OPI Breathe Life (3) [nice glow; I should try this layered over navy]
5. Barry M Blue Moon (3) [very subtle shimmer, like Chanel Riva]
6. Revlon Waterfall (3)
7. Revlon Blue Lagoon (3)
8. Revlon Colada Fizz (4)
9. OPI My Fave Wave (4)
10. Maybelline Express Finish Blue Brilliance (4) [nice pale pink shimmer]
11. OPI Go On Green (3) [not overly green, but very pretty]
12. Maybelline Express Finish Aqua Shocks (3)
13. Cover Girl NailSlicks Cosmic Blue (3)
14. OPI Can't You Sea (4) [love the multi colored shimmer]
15. Catrice Blue's Brother (2)
16. Oke Doke Steal This Teal (2)
17. Wet 'n' Wild Fast Dry Stream of Wonder (2)
18. Essence Colour & Go Underwater (2)

    Awesome blues!! So weird that the essence Underwater looks a lot like my bottle of Hard to Resist *in* the bottle, but it looks totally different swatched.

    I will take one of each!!! I believe I only have two of these polishes and I am a major blue hoarder.

    Your right, OPI Breathe Life would probably look awesome over navy!! 11 and 12 are my favs!

    I love all of these! I'd really love to see Breathe Life over a navy- I bet it would look great.

    Thanks for the comparisons; it's super useful! I have been wanting Barry M Blue Moon for so long! And the two Revlon light blues next to it are beautiful too :-)
