China Glaze - Skyscraper


Zonder een beetje zonlicht is het onmogelijk om echt goede foto's te maken van je nagels. Zeker als je glitter nagellak op hebt! Vandaag is zo'n dag dat het onmogelijk is..  Daarom ben ik blij dat ik deze foto al een paar dagen geleden heb gemaakt, omdat ik stiekem altijd wat achterloop met posten op mijn blog. Maar daar krijg je veel moois voor terug ;)


China Glaze - Skyscraper is toch wel het meest spectaculaire lakje van de Metro collectie. Hij bestaat uit lekker veel zilveren glitters in een donker blauwe jelly basis. De lak is iets dikker dan normaal en is daardoor makkelijk te verdelen over je hele nagel. Ik had na twee lagen volledige dekking. Bij het verwijderen van Skyscraper kreeg ik toch wel een hele leuke verassing. Voor een glitter lak is hij heel makkelijk te verwijderen! Na een minuutje of twee je watje met nagellak remover ertegenaan te houden kan je hem zonder problemen van je nagel vegen. Wel goed je handen wassen om alle glitters weg te krijgen.


China Glaze - Skyscraper is in my opinion the most spectacular polish from the Metro Collection. It contains many silver glitter particles in a dark blue jelly base. It's a little bot thick but it stil can be applied very easily. Two layers give full coverage. For a Glitter polish, it also is very easy to remove! Just hold your cotton for a minute or two longer and it comes off without a struggle.

Gosh - Ocean

One of my favorite brands so far is Gosh. The colours are amazing! I had high exectations for this one. In the bottle it looks like a great blue polish, with a purple shine. So, after a long time of just staring at it in the store shelfs, I finally bought it!



But what a disappointment when I put it on. It's just a blue metallic! However, the blue is really good. The finish is a bit streeky, but that's normal with metallics.



See? It's a pretty colour, but not what I expected.

About Gosh nail polish:
Gosh is easy to apply, covers in two layers with all the colours I tried so far, and stays on for about 4-5 days without chipping. The downside is drying time. Even after an hour it still damages if you hit something hard or take your pants of.

Gosh polishes cost €6,99 for 8 ml

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/

It Blue My Mind

Maybe you remember, last time I bought two catrice polishes. 'Sold out Forever' was an amazing colour. But, this one may be even more amazing. You can say, it really 'blue my mind'!



'It Blue My Mind' is a mindblowing blue with a nice subtle shimmer. It's opaque in just one coat, but I'm wearing two because of the wear and the first coat had bubbles.

So far, I think Catrice polishes are great! Even more if you realize they cost just €2,99! Can't wait to try more..
