Miss Sporty ~ Metal Flip ~ 050 shade

Hey everyone! It is snowing here in Bratislava, it is beautiful!! I mean, the wind was blowing so hard the snow was falling horizontally for a while, but it looks amazing from my warm room. :) 

Today I managed to get better pictures of the 050 shade from Metal Flip collection. If you googled this particular Miss Sporty line, you might have noticed that the western bloggers mostly show shades 010, 030 and 040, they all also have names (as you can also see on Miss Sporty UK official site), but the eastern bloggers show 030, 040 and 050. And these have no names. So when I bought them I found the Beetle wings a bit off, only to realise I do not have Beetle wings (010), but an unnamed shade 050. As I think it is a pity that is nameless, so I shall call it Autumn Forest. Yeah. It reminds me of Fall and the colours of the the leaves in Autumn.




The other set of pictures I took when wearing the shade for the first time (some sunlight pictures):




This was all three coats. I love shades like this. And I like how brush strokes are not (too) visible, even if it is a metallic nail polish. All in all I just wish I could get the 010 too. :)

Do you have any shades from Metal Flip collection?

Miss Sporty ~ Metal Flip ~ Fiery Blaze (040)

Hey people! So I bought the Miss Sporty duochromes a while ago and wore them too, but waited with publishing in want of better pictures. As that never happened, I will publish those that I have, at least of the two shades I'm OK with how pictures turned out. I have a feeling these babies kinda flew under the radar of nail polish fanatics, although you can see some pretty awesome swatches on some of the blogs. Admittedly, I am not a fan of Miss Sporty in general. I haven't had a single polish by them, until now. And even in the bottle, Metal Flip looked by far too metallic and brush strokey to me, that is why I searched for swatches before I bought them. Luckily, they are really great nail polish, and for 1.80€ too. 

First I tried is Fiery Blaze. Sadly my bottle doesn't have the name on it, I found it online. It is a neat one, shifts from this rich bronze gold/green to the main shift of dark purple. Looks fantastic on the nails.





This was two coats, as far as I can remember. I am impressed by the brush, it is very nice for such a low-budget nail polish, not to mention brush strokes are non-existent. Major plus, as that can be the only thing to really turn me off when it comes to metallic duochromes. Lasted on my nails for good 5 or 6 days as well, but they were short, as you can see.

It is a very nice duochrome for a very nice price. Nothing groundbreaking, but I at least cannot get sick of the duochromes. Ever. :) 



Still on board with duochromes? Any Miss Sporty nail polish you would recommend me? Have you seen these in your drugstores, bought any of the collection?
