I thought about wearing China Glaze 108 Degress, but I figured a lot of people have done that for Pink Wednesday, so I decided to go with Revlon Tulip, 3 coats.
I got this in the mail today. :) This was part of the tea party set I won in a giveaway from Body and Soul. Thank you Mary! Please go visit her site, if you haven't. Her most recent post is about a great deal going on for a nice set of summery Julep polishes! And here's a pic of the two sets I received.
Tulip is a bright, almost magenta, pink creme. My pictures make it look like it's a straight up hot pink, but it's not. It's bright but darker with some blue in it. I've noticed that others bloggers had a lot of trouble with application with this one. I don't know if mine's a different batch, but I really didn't have as much trouble. Since these are minis, the brush is a bit tiny, and since it dries a bit fast, it can get streaky as a result. I noticed that with my second coat, so for the third one I made sure I loaded the brush and it went on nice and smooth. Even if you load the brush with polish, it'll be fine since the brush is so small. It'll actually help you cover the nail better. I wanted to see what Sparkle looked like, so I layered a thin coat over Tulip.
As you can see, the glitters in TD are smaller than those in Sparkle. In the end, I think I prefer Tulip on its own. :P I'm really not a pink girl, but I'm starting to really like pinks with a bit of blue/ berry tones. It might be a phase though. :P The "I really really want Cult Nails Devious Nature but can't get it yet" phase. ^^;
Have you picked up any of Revlon's spring mini sets?

PS. Definitely wear base coat with this one! It stains. :(
