China Glaze - First Class Ticket

China Glaze - First Class Ticket is a dark purple with blue and purple shimmer. Photo shows 2 coats.

China Glaze - Emerald Fitzgerald

China Glaze - Emerald Fitzgerald is one of my favorite greens, the green shimmer through out adds a three dimensional depth. Photo is of 2 coats.

China Glaze - Hey Doll

China Glaze - Hey Doll is a dark rose, from a distance it looks like a brown. This photo was 2 coats, after 3 days of wear. My index finger has some slight shrinkage, but i didn't wrap my tips, or put on a top coat.

China Glaze - Vintage Vixen Range

I love the Vintage Vixen range. I'm kind of a year late to the party on this one, but I'm OK with that. Winter is really kicking in here in Melbourne, and the range has just the colours I feel like wearing.
This is a very classy range. They are dark polishes, but still manage to pack in colour and shimmer. 
I got 8 of the 12 colours. I passed on Ingrid, Classic Camel, Riveter Rouge and Foxy. I don't really wear reds and yellow just doesn't suit my skin tone. I regret not getting Ingrid though.
Here are the colours in order of the first and second pics:
1) Hey Doll, 2) Emerald Fitzgerald, 3) First Class Ticket, 4) Jitterbug, 5) Bogie, 6) Swing Baby, 7) Midnight Mission, 8) Goin My Way?

piCture pOlish - Denim

This is the third colour I'm swatching from my picture polish haul. Denim. Mmmm Mmmmm...

I have never seen a blue like this before. Picture polish categorise this with their 'Glitter Shades'.
It is glittery but because the glitter is in such a nice creamy formula it looks more like a shimmer than obvious glitter on the nail. I really like that.
Only the last photo picked up the purple glitter that's adding a layer of depth to the dazzle.

This is 2 thickly applied coats of Denim.
For the print i used China Glaze - Up all night.
The plate was the second large print plate off Ebay (shown in the last post).




I thought the buckle print would look good over denim. What do you reckon?

China Glaze Encouragement

I will wear this on my wedding day. It is the sweetest pink around. People may think I am a sweet virgin bride, ha ha ok maybe not.

China Glaze formula is always lovely to apply and this is no exception. What does stand out though is the amazing shimmer. The shimmer particles in this seem to be small and medium which means that they are still very visible when applied and dried on the nail.
I applied three coats and the picture is shown with no topcoat.
I purchased this little baby from Trans design for $2.99US. Bargain.
