The Tony Moly Pinky Star is a polish for a dreamy kind of look, it has circular glitter bits of red and reflective yellow/gold(?) with minute particles of shimmers in the girly shade of pink base. I thought it was a good polish to use when you have blunt nails or your're lazy to come up with something creative, because its blend of red and gold make it effortlessly-chic and the pink base allows blunt nails to have that 'nude' nail look but with little 'unique something'.

I got this because i wanted PPK001 from Etude House's Dear My Party Nails Collection, (but the seller do not carry that shade) and i thought that Pinky Star is a good dupe for PPK001. (i got the blue one though...PBL601). However on closer inspection, realised that Pinky Star's glitter bits are red, and gold whereas PPK001's have blue in it, giving it a really different outlook. So not really a close dupe i guess.....
I did say that i was going to review PBL601 along with Tony Moly's Pinky Star, but on second thought i will leave PBL601 for the next time because there's no way i'm going to wear both polish on my body simultaneously. They look so.....clashing.....-.-
Finally...the swatch~!
The only thing i didn't like about Tony Moly's Pinky Star is that it is so difficult to get a uniform spread...or even spread the gorgeous glitter bits onto my nails. It stays inside the polish bottle, at the bottle opening, onto the brush applicator but NOT ON MY NAILS!! Jeez.....that was quite a test of patience.
Now, moving on to the Lioele Nail color!!

Swatch of Modern Mint
(Confession : i did not have the time to do a swatch of Mint Green =( but i believe the swatch would look true to pic)

The Lioele Nail Color in Mint Green and Modern Mint were something i got on a wimp because.....i didn't have these shade yet. Yea, kinda bought them without much consideration on what i'm going to do with it. Well, i thought it over and feel that this shade is really suitable for leopard inspired nail art!! Or other animal prints!!

Awesome right? But i'm can't...not until i get my nail art brush and dotting set to paint the black stripes and dots. Well animal prints are really the rave now...other than the magnetic polish and the crackle polish, but they do give you a run for your creativity ^^ (see below)
