ORLY - Androgynie


Fall is hitting Holland hard this year. Almost everyone has been sick in the last few weeks(or is going to be!), including me.. Leafs terrorise my car and the earea around it, so I almost slip. LAst bog complaint, we've been hit by Fog. The world has been so small the last week.
Of course, this is not what you're here for, so on to the polish!


ORLY - Androgynie is a black polish, with some interesting things going on in there. It has pretty big Hex glitter, in green, purple, copper and blue. It also has smaller silver particles. 
A lot of people were really disappointed by this one. It's so beautifull in the bottle, but the beauty doesn't translate on to the nail. To prove this point: just look at the picture! When I look at is, all my attention goes to the bottle. There's just not enough hex on the nails..
Still, when you don't have the bottle directly next to your nails it's a great polish with just enough glitter =)

Black and Gold Nailart

When I just typed the title of this article I suddenly thought of this song:



Nice song right? This is a cover by Ellie Goulding, so you could go check out the original song by Sam Sparro @ youtube.

On to the nailart. I just got a new polish, H&M - Manhunter. A great black polish. Just black is just boring to me, so I put a little Gosh - Gold over it.

And this is how it turned out. It looks a bit Lady Gaga to me. I like it!

China Glaze - Blue Sparrow



I was really excited when I layed my hands on this China Glaze polish! It's called 'Blue Sparrow', a blue neon colour. This is my first China Glaze, so when it arrived at my home, I couldn't wait to put it on my nails!
When I put it on, I noticed it's a really thin and watery colour. It took 4 coats to get it opaque. But, it dries really quick and gives a matte effect, which I really like. However, the glitter in this polish is so much better with a shiny top coat!



But then, after a day of wearing this, it started chipping. AND HOW! Across the middle of my ring finger a stroke of polish was missing.. and at the edges it wasn't any better. Maybe this was because in my excitement I forgot the base coat. But even in my 'non base-coat using' period my polishes lasted a lot longer!
This polish is also hellish to take of bacause of the many glitters. Glittery polishes are always a bit difficult to take of your nails.

I still really adore the glitter in this polish. So I dicided to experiment with black nailpolish.



Here you can really see the matte finish of 'Blue Sparrow'. Ain't it nice?



And here I put on a top coat for a nice shine. I'm not shure wich one I like better..


Thanks, Suzanne! For the polish and the quick shipping! check out her blog: http://deltacephei.nl/
