Pretty Serious - Blue Gums on Boxing Day and Party by the Pool

These pictures are old! I wore these in mid December and am only posting about them now.  These two shades are from the Pretty Serious Christmas without Snow Collection.

Blue Gums on Boxing Day - I remember having a private little giggle when reading some international reviews about this polish and their misunderstanding of the polish name.  I think read a comment about it maybe being reference to being so cold on boxing day that your lips turn blue and another about blue mouth guards that boxers wear.  Seriously funny!  Especially when a quick google search of 'blue gum' is going to tell you exactly what they are are - eucalyptus trees (or a quick check to the Pretty Serious Blog explains the inspiration precisely).  

Things like that really demonstrate to me that many people just write stuff online without switching their brains on first, at least I hope that is what it is.  Another example was a comment I read on someones instragram photo where this person asked if it was really Autumn now here in Australia, cause it was nearly Spring where she was!  Seriously had this lass not learned anything about the other side of the world?

Anywho, Blue Gums on Boxing Bay has a rich emerald green base with a bright blue shimmer. Two coats with Seche Vite top coat.

Party by the Pool - a sheer teal base which is really hard to photograph correctly, it kept leaning way too blue in the first lot of photos I took, these ones are closer to the polish colour. The polish is filled with tiny blue and green glitter flecks that sparkle through the sheer jelly base.  I used three coats for these pictures.
