SinfulColors Spring Fever: Sail La Vie

*Provided for Review*

SinfulColors took the non traditional road this Spring.  I expected a pastel Spring collection this year (think Sugar Rush and all its glory), but they decided to break everyone out of their winter blahs and go bold and bright!  The Spring Fever collection consists of 24 polishes and only a few are pastel in nature.  Some of these are repromoted or core colors, but there are new specialty polishes too.  Sail La Vie was originally part of a summer collection in 2013 and I missed getting it, but wow am I glad to have it now!  Grab this one if you see it, because it's fantastic and I cannot get enough of this color on my nails!!

Spring ready!

There are a lot of similar blues out there, but for $1.99 the polish and its formula cannot be beat.  I looked up a few swatches and some lean more blue...it's definitely blue toned.  Sail La Vie is just one of those polishes that is chameleon-like in different lighting situations.  Maybe my bottle leans a bit lighter than some, but is a very vibrant pastel.  They describe it as a cerulean sea blue. I think it also leans periwinkle sometimes. This is two extremely easy coats.

I love crellies and don't know of any others that Sinful Colors has done, so I'm excited to share 2 of the 3 they came out with.  Petal Be The Day has royal blue and purple hex glitters in a very sheer tinted base.  It looks like it would build by itself in a few coats, but it doesn't.  I would recommend layering Petal Be The Day over Sail La Vie or Tempest for a close match. Flower Power is the pink base with white and fuchsia glitters.  I haven't tried it yet, but after seeing other swatches you can wear Flower Power on its own.

Below are all 24 shades in the SinfulColors 2015 Spring Fever collection. There are a few others I'm excited to grab including the 3 Citrus Twist jelly toppers (2 have flakies!) and 3 Opalescent toppers that are new.


This collection is currently available at Walgreens, Rite Aid, and other mass retailers for $1.99 each.  You can keep up with SinfulColors on their website, twitter, and other social media.

I can't wait to hear what you favorite polish is from SinfulColors, so let me know!  And here's hoping my bracket (and yours) is still standing on Monday!

  10. That colour is GORGEOUS on you! Definitely has that periwinkle going on that you mentioned. Reminds me of BoHo Blues that CG just released with the spring collection.

  11. Oh man, I've been hoping they'll bring this one back! I missed it the first time, too, and Young Wild & Polished wears it all the time, teasing me with it. I shall have to make a trip to Walgreens.

    1. Yes I have confirmation the Citrus Twist have flakies! Much smaller than Green Ocean's but the swatches I've seen look amazing for summer.
