Yes Love - Coloured Speckled - Blue

I have a lovely blue polish to show you today, it's one of Yes Love's Coloured Speckled polishes which I was given as a gift by my lovely friend D a little while ago.
 
 
The polish consists of a blue crelly (jelly cream) base with various sizes and colours of glitter speckled through it, these pictures are three coats, two cover adequately but I like to add a third for extra glitter bit goodness.

 
I think these polishes will be pretty hard to track down if you're based in the UK but if you happen to be in Europe for a holiday then it's well worth keeping an eye out as Yes Love do some rather fantastic dupes of polishes from much more expensive lines.

Yes Love - Coloured Speckled - Swatches

I was (still am, really) planning on doing Christmas manicures all through December like I did last year but somehow the start of the month has sort of sneaked up on me and I'm not really ready for it!  So, before I launch into a month of more festive themed nails I have yesterday's Speckled polishes on my nails to show you. 
 
Although these polishes are far from Christmasy I couldn't resist trying these out after I received them, there was no way they could wait until the new year to get an outing.
 
 
I couldn't quite make up my mmind which to use first so I decided to just try them all out as they're nicely compatible pastel shades.

 
These pictures are just two coats of polish, it applies really nicely and there wasn't too much need to poke about and reposition the glitter which is quite often a problem with this sort of polish.

 
In the bottle the blue was my favourite but since trying them on my nails I have fallen in love with the green, it's just SO pretty, although I do still love the blue and peach too.  I can't wait to try these out as full manicures and have a go stamping over them too, I think they'll be a great base for stamping designs so look out for that in the future.

Yes Love - Coloured Speckled

These polishes are the slightly more jazzy version of the Yes Love Speckled polishes I posted about a few times after picking them up in Spain in the summer.  They have the same sort of cream base but this time with multicoloured glitter spread through them rather than just black. 
 
As far as I can tell there are 6 in the collection and I am lucky enough to have 3 of them to show you, sent to me by my very lovely friend D.
 
 
1 - A mint green coloured base polish with large blue hex, medium pink, purple and black hex and small black hex glitter scattered through it.
 
2 - A soft creamy peach coloured base polish filled with large red hex, medium red, lilac and black hex and small black hex glitter
 
3 - My favourite of the three, a baby blue base coloured polish with medium pink, yellow gold and black hex and small black hex glitter through it.

 
From my hunting online there are also lilac, pink and yellow base polishes but I think I've definitely got three of the best here!  I can't wait to try them out, I hope they apply half as well as the regular Speckled line from Yes Love as they are firm favourites of mine.
