Ok, so maybe SFW (safe for work, by the way) doesn't really apply to my life. Pretty much whatever color I'm feeling is "SFW". But some folks have actual job-type-jobs, and have to look professional...and I love a good nude/neutral color. It's a palette refresher for me. I decided to get my favorites together since I have the new spiffy lights for a portrait.
My choices
(from left to right)
Butter London All Hail the Queen
Milani Dark Coffee
NYC Fashion Safari
China Glaze Camisole
Rimmel London Steel Grey
China Glaze Camisole
It's a bit thin, but not terribly. Just thin enough to be easy to apply, but not so thin you need a billion coats. I used two coats here, plus I sponged on another layer to obliterate the streaks. This is the streakiest thing I've ever used. But it's a pretty, coppery, cafe au lait kind of color. Definitely flattering for all skin tones.
NYC Fashion Safari
I actually already reviewed this here, so I won't beat a dead horse here. It's a great polish for the price. It dries fast, and needs 3 coats to cover the nail line.
Rimmel London Steel Grey
I did a shit job of showing this off when I first got it, so it deserves a second chance. It's actually a nice polish. A tiny bit thin, but it has definitely benefitted from a bit of aging, which is nice for a
Milani Dark Coffee
I love this polish. I wish I liked more of the Milani polishes. Great thin brush that spreads like warm butter, smooth, even consistency...ah, heaven in a bottle. I have only worn it once before, but I need to definitely make this a regular player.
Butter London All Hail The Queen
This was the first polish I took pictures of in my shiny new/old lightbox. I still like it, but I am no longer over-the-moon about the Butter London formula. I still maintain that it's a ploy to get me to buy the Nail Foundation. I used 3 thick-ish coats to cover my nail line here.
