Beau Polish - Beach Party Neons (Brights Collection Additions)

Hello lovelies! Today I have five Beau Polish neon polishes to share with you, all of which are joining the existing Brights Collection on Friday 1st July. These are perfect Summer shades, all inspired by beach parties. With the weather warming up (maybe too warm?!) recently, I've been absolutely loving these on my nails. I've also done a bit of nail art for each polish. Read on for my full swatches, nail art, and more info!

Before jumping into the individual swatches, I'll address the formula here first. I found all of the polishes to have a smooth, easy to apply formula. As I used up my mini bottles of one or two of the shades, they did thicken slightly, but not enough to affect application. I was impressed that none of them needed a white base to pop off the nail, with them all building up perfectly opaque on their own. I varied between two to three coats depending on the colour, so I'll mention that below.

'Beach Please!' is a neon yellow creme. I was looking for a neon yellow last year, but every one I seemed to come across had a much lime-ier hue - this is just straight yellow, so is perfect for me! Below is three coats with topcoat.

I stuck to a beach party sort of theme for all of my nail art, to coincide with the inspiration for the polishes. I started off with some ice lollies, stamped from UberChic Beauty plate 9-01, and coloured in using 'You Want A Peach Of Me?'.

'You Want A Peach Of Me?' is a neon orange coral creme. This is probably the polish I've used most so far from this collection, it's just such a gorgeous colour. Below is three coats with topcoat.

For this one, I went with a few fun pirate themed images. I used plates Lina Nail Art Supplies Born To Sail 02 and UberChic Beauty Mermaid Life. I love the contrast of this one against the black stamping.

'Your Fuschia Is Bright' is a neon hot pink creme. Siana mentioned that this is the brightest pink that Beau currently has to offer, and I have no issues believing that! I feel like you could get away with two coats on this one depending on your application, though I did apply three on my nails. Below is three coats with topcoat.

You can't have a beach party without mermaids! I've been waiting to use these cute seahorses and dolphins for a while, so I was happy to finally have the excuse to get them on my nails. All images are from Clear Jelly Stamper plate Mermaid Doodle 2 (CJS-25).

'Heat-Wave Me Off' is a bright purple creme. This and the teal are slightly deeper colours than the rest of the collection, so build up to be opaque easily with a second coat. Below is two coats with topcoat.

I opted for various drinks and cocktails for this bold purple shade. All images are from the UberChic Beauty Party Time stamping plate.

'Teal Me About It!' is a bright teal creme. Another easy two coater, and as is usually the case with teals, could be a real shapeshifter depending on your lighting and skintone. Below is two coats with topcoat.

This one was calling out for some beachy/pool images. I mixed and matched images from a few different plates, including Born Pretty Summer BP-X24 and Creative Shop plate 85.

Lastly, I couldn't resist using all of the polishes together in a mani. I went for a vertical gradient, which I'd actually never tried before! I sponged on the colours over a light base as I normally would for a gradient, and this is how it turned out.

I then stamped an image from Moyra plate 26 (Summertime) over each nail. I wore this mani for my recent holiday in Blackpool and it was perfect for all the beach trips and sunny days.

What do you think? Are you all about the neons for Summer time? I already can't get enough of these, and think I might have to set an alarm for the launch myself so I can get my hands on some full size bottles. I've already used my poor minis far too much!

All five polishes mentioned launch on the 1st July over on the Beau Polish website here. They will be joining the Brights Collection, which you can find here.

Hope to see you in the next post!
