Deborah Lippmann - Sweet Spot

Hey guys!

I've had Deborah Lippmann's Sweet Spot (DLSS) for a while. This is the second time I'm wearing this polish and to be quite honest, I don't like it. On both occasions I wore this polish for less than a day.  I feel old and outdated wearing this.  It does nothing for my skin tone and the frosty-ness makes me feel like it is 1983.  Would be great with frosted make up and frosted highlights... NOT!  The mauve underneath reminds me of the early 1990's when mauve colored kitchens was the trend....yuck.  The formula is fine.  ... sigh.

DLSS is one of a three polish set called "Fashionista"; Milkshake and Envy Me are the other two polishes from the set and I posted those earlier.  Set was $44. 

My husband bought this for me, he buys all my Lippmann polishes.  He thinks $18 per bottle is a good deal!  :D

When I told him I get China Glaze on sale at Sally's for $5 he was astounded!  He replied that the lady at the cosmetic counter was trying to sell him some $300 face creme, so he felt relieved to leave Neiman's having only spent $18.  Point taken, honey.

Deborah Lippmann - Envy Me

My first green nail polish! Deborah Lippmann's Envy Me (DLEM) is a wearable green grey metallic frost. I would actually feel comfortable wearing this to work, where I want people to notice me and not my crazy nails!  At the same time I still want to be manicured and trendy.  DLEM achieves this.  In low lighting it looks more grey than green and from a far can look metallic.    

Taken under a photo light, more true to color.

See the frosty-ness in the bottle?

Cloudy daylight, looks more grey than green here.

Love this wearable green!

DLEM is one of three polishes in the Deborah Lippmann's Fashionista set.  Also in the set is Sweet Spot and Milkshake, which I have not tried out yet.  $40 for the set of three at Neiman Marcus.

Application was smooth, great formula.  I used, Deborah Lippman's (DL) base coat, two coats DLEM, one coat Revlon quick dry top coat.   This is my first time using DL's base coat, I have her top coat too, but I haven't tried that yet, because I don't know if it is quick drying and I don't have time to deal with slow drying top coats.  I will try it out though and let you know what I think.
