Today’s nail lacquer is dedicated to my cousin Beetrice, who’s a big fan of all things purple 😉
The first time I saw Maybelline’s Colorama Mini nail polishes, I thought they were really cute. The small 7.5ml bottles are just nice for me. I don’t wear nail polish very often, and since I like trying out new ones, regular-sized bottles are wasted on me 😛
I liked the Mini Colorama in Tart instantly when I saw it and tried it on. It’s a rich purple with subtle gold shimmer. It reflects beautifully against the light, and applies with ease.
Purple is a colour that is very difficult to capture on camera, so after taking snapping heaps of images, these are the best I could do to capture its true colours. I think it’s pretty accurate to the real thing 🙂
Tart is a part of the Colorama Mini Nail Colour Bitter Sweets Collection, and will be available at Maybelline counters in February 2012. Each Colorama Mini retails at AU$5.95 for 7.5ml.
Note: This product was provided for consideration.
you know, i used to hate maybelline colourama nail polish, they never fail to fail me big time. >.< but maybe they reformulated or something, as this looks really good on you!

Plue: I haven’t tried any other Colorama Mini polishes, cremes or jellies, but this purple shimmer one is beautiful. Very easy to apply and remove too.
I have most of the regular line of these polishes, I find the formula perfect for me. This range sounds so nice! I don’t usually do purples but am tempted by this one, it’s very nice on. Looking forward to picking some up!

Beetrice: I thought this should be available in Singapore/Malaysia? If you want me to get a bottle for you first (in case it’s limited edition or anything), let me know 😛
*adding this to the shopping list for bee later*

Xin: Hahaha aww that would mean I look young and hip? Aww thank you thank you! 😀 😀

This is a gorgeous shade. But why is it called a mini? As far as I know, the larger one is 8 ml. In any case, the 8 ml one is the only size we get in India 🙁

Poohkie: Really? Perhaps it’s just how they’re packaged in different countries? Is yours just called Colorama? Do you get the other ranges of nail polishes in India as well?
ya it’s just Colorama, not Maybelline Colorama. We get 2 ranges of Maybelline polishes, but both are big bottles. I love polishes, but I’ll never be able to use up an entire bottle, much less the 10-12 that I have. What a waste!
