I'm trying to use some of my untrieds. I get so excited when I buy new polishes and rush to use those first and forget about the ones I've had for a while. I'm sure I'm not the only one that has this problem ;0). Anyhoo, Bobbing for Baubles is a really nice creme described by Essie as a deepest darkest sapphire. It was a part of Essie's Winter 2011 Cocktail Bling Collection.
The formula for this polish was AMAZING!! It went on effortlessly and was opaque in one coat. Only because I am a creature of habit, did I use two coats. One would have definitely been enough.
For the pics below, I used OPI Natural Nail Base Coat, 2 coats of Bobbing for Baubles, and Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat.

What do you think of Bobbing for Baubles? Did you pick up anything from the Cocktail Bling collection?

I love colors like that, just classic and beautiful cremes! I personally don't have any from the Cocktail Bling collection; I ran to get Size Matters but unfortunately that was a major fail on me and I gave it to a friend :(
ReplyDeleteI agree. This is definitely a classic. I was iffy about Size Matters, so I didn't pick it up. I think this one would look great on you though.
DeleteI'm still on the fence about this polish, because I'm not sure if I *need* it, but it's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteYes, you *need* it Alana, lol!! It's a really nice polish!

DeleteI picked up School of Hard Rocks and Cocktail Bling, but passed on this one. Truth is that this collection is so great that I would need each and every one of them. I might reconsider this one. It looks gorgeous on you!
