For Holiday 2014,
Mary Kay At Play released an adorable and festive mini polish trio. Each polish is 4ml and last week I had a chance to play around with them so to see some swatches of the
Hail to the Nails Mini Nail Lacquer Trio ($18 CAD), click......
Inky Blue: This is a classic dark navy creme. The formulation is good, two coats for opacity and the drying time is decent.
 |
| Two coats with no top coat. |
Pink Hottie: This is a rich bright purple creme. The formulation is decent but it could be slightly more pigmented. However, a careful two coat application should provide good opacity. Apologies for the bad air brush around the cuticles, they were pretty beat up that day.
 |
| Two coats with no top coat. |
Silver Sparkle: A gorgeous silver/blue iridescent micro-flakie, Silver Sparkle adds so much depth to Inky Blue, in fact, the Inky Blue and Silver Sparkle combo looks a lot like Mary Kay's Night Diamond (swatched
here), but a blue version. The formulation is also packed with flakies so one coat gives enough coverage.
 |
| One coat over two coats of Inky Blue, no top coat. |
Overall:
Formulation-wise, all three are great but the only color that really stood out to me is "Silver Sparkler", which I cannot wait to wear over all my dark polishes! All in all though, I think this is an adorable set perfect as a stocking stuffer!
Availability:
This set is available through your local
Mary Kay Consultant until February 15th or until supplies last.
