Wet n Wild Fergie nail polish swatches, REVIEW, and comparison to Whimsical

I spotted the Wet n Wild Fergie nail polishes at Walgreens the other day and picked up three to try. The color range wasn't too special and I didn't think any stood out as 'must haves,' but I am sure glad I picked three very different polishes to try. 
See below for swatches, comparisons, and review!


Wet n Wild Fergie nail polishes, 0.42 fl oz/12.5mL, $3.49

 I found the display at the end of one of the aisles. You really have to go hunt for them. I did not see these at every Walgreens near me, but I think they will be popping up soon in most Walgreens.


The three nail polishes that I chose to purchase were:
Mermaid curves- a ocean blue jelly with different size glitters
Flossy flossy- a clear polish with mainly rose gold glitter and a mix of other tiny glitters
Grammy gold- a pigmented gold shimmer polish





I personally loved Mermaid curves. The color is so cute! The blue was just perfect in glitter and jelly. I also layered it with other nail polishes and it looks great. Each combination looks so unique!
I did the same for Flossy flossy. I have been looking for a rose gold glitter polish and I think I found it. Because it isn't soley big glitters, it makes it less sparse on your nail. Many looks can also be created!



Closer look at the brush!

Polish and Co 5 O'clock Shadow and Cash Only REVIEW and swatches

update Sept. 13th 2012: I have used these polishes a few more times and I have noticed more and more staining upon removal. I remove these with soap and also with my nail polish remover, but I find it a bit time consuming after a while. If you do not like staining or messy removals, I would skip these colors!

After recently seeing an introduction of the Polish & Co's nail polishes on Nouveau Cheap's blog, I decided to check it out. I am always in search of pretty nail polishes that are Big 3 free (no formaldehyde, DBP, and toluene). After browsing on Polish & Co's website, I decided on two colors- Cash only and 5 o'clock Shadow.
