Hey Guys! I am so honored to be here on Colores De Carol today! I was so thrilled when Carolina asked me to do a guest post because I am such a huge fan! Thank you so much for having me Carolina! If you don't already follow me on Instagram or my blog, I'm Sarah from LethalLacquer.

Lately I have been on a major search for some perfect neon polishes for summer. It's like all I could think about polish wise. And of course I found them when I wasn't looking at Walmart! Here's what they look like:



I have never tried this DARE brand before but I couldn't pass these up for $7. Also, I was happy to read on the box that these are 3-free, cruelty free and made in the USA! Whoop! And I love how cute the bottles are!

For all of these swatches I did 2 coats of OPI-alpine snow under to make the neon really POP. They all dry matte but I wouldn't recommend leaving them that way because they are a little streaky. I topped them all with a coat of Seche Vite and it completely smoothed them out.

BOLD MOVE: A super bright neon pink. I did 2 coats of white and three coats of Bold Move. These dry super quickly so you need to move fast covering the whole nail. Also, don't get frustrated when they look a tad patchy because once you get the additional coats on and the top coat you can't tell at all. Other than that, the formula is great and the colors are insanely bright! My camera kinda of freaked out trying to capture the "neon-ness" so IRL they are a tad brighter.





HEATING UP: Bright neon orange. I'm not a huge fan of orange but I am loving this bright neon! The formula on this one was the same as the pink but I only had to do 2 coats of Heating Up over the white.

So bright right??

Social Magnet: The brightest neon yellow! This one was my favorite!! The formula was great and not as patchy as the others and it is by far the brightest polish I own! I would buy the pack for this one by itself. WARNING: you might want to put on your sunglasses for this one. :)

How perfect is this?

Natural Flirt: A fiery neon coral. The formula on this one was the hardest of all the polishes. It got much more clumpy and streaky, but still smoothed out with the Seche Vite. It is like the perfect combination of the pink and orange polishes.

I also decided to do a summer gradient with these! This is a look I will definitely be rocking a lot this summer. Nothing makes me happier than a bright, neon gradient :)

Hope you guys enjoyed this post. And thank you so much again Carolina!

Thank you very much Sarah for such a great post!
