Enchanted Polish - Good Life

Hi lovelies!

I hope you're having a great weekend :)

Today I decided to wear Good Life from Enchanted Polish and dang what a bummer it was. The formula was like the old EP's. The polish covered with two thin coats and dried really fast. BUT Good Life didn't at all work with my skin tone. I think that Good Life would look amazing if your skin tone isn't totally transparent like mine. I was very disappointed because the foil like holo finish is absolutely stunning.  

Perhaps I'll wait until next summer and try it when I have a bit of a tan. However I'm really glad that the formula was so much better than July 2014. I hope that the new EP's will have the same amazing formula as Good Life and not like July 2014. 

That's all for now. Until next time, take care!
Love,

Colors by Llarowe - Burnt Sugar

 Hi cuties!

How are you guys!? I hope that you have a great weekend ahead. I'll be spending my weekend studying. Well not the entire weekend, I will spend my Sunday evening in front of the telly watching updates on the Swedish election. To be honest I'm pretty nervous right now. 

Anyway time for my #notd. Todays polish is an oldie but a goodie. This is the old formula of Burnt Sugar form Colors by Llarowe. As you might know already the older holos from CbL are more jelly-like. They usually require three or four coats for a completely opaque finish. I ended up with three coats of Burnt Sugar. 

I have recently changed my mind and have come to realise that I like brown nail polish. I must say, it feel pretty classy with brown nails. Burnt sugar looks so fancy and now I'm even more excited that I bought Seasonal Lattes from Smitten Polish. 

That's all for today, I hope you'll have a great evening. I'll "talk" to you tomorrow. 
Love,
Christina

Kaleidoscope by El Corazon - Darina





Hi lovelies!

I got some amazing nail mail today and Maria at Hypnotic Polish sent me this amazing bonus polish. It is called Darina and it's from Kaleidoscope by El Corazon. I'm a sucker for shimmers like the one in Darina so I hade to try it right away. The formula was excellent, and the glitters didn't require any fishing whatsoever. I applied two coats of Darina and even though there is VNL in the pictures there was none IRL. Since the star glitters have rather sharp ends I applied three coats of tc.

I absolutely love this colour. The magenta shimmer and the blurple base looks so pretty together. Since I'm a sucker for gold, this is definitely a newfound love.

That's all for now, have a great evening.  

 Love,

I Love Nail Polish - Birefringence (H)

Hi cuticle cuties!

This will probably be my shortest blog post ever. I hope that's fine with you guys. Today I decided to wear polish that I haven't worn in over a year. I give you Birefringence (H) from I Love Nail Polish. The (H) means that the polish has holographic pigments. I Love Nail Polish have their multi chromes both with and without holographic pigment.

Birefringence is a stunning multi chrome, I tried to capture the colour shift but there are even more colours that are visible in really weird angles. I believe that one coat would be enough if layered over black. I needed three coats for it to cover on it's own. It dries shiny but it's a slow drying polish so I definitely recommend to finish the mani off with a fast drying tc of your choice.  

I really like this polish the only downside is the drying time but it wasn't the end of the world. That's all for today. I'll "talk" to you guys tomorrow. Have a great evening <3

NDLacquers - Songs of Neptune

Songs of Neptune was sent for my honest review.
Hey guys!

I hope that your day has been great so far. 

I have a super fun polish to show you today. It's from NDLacquer and is called Songs of Neptune. I love the name. The polish is a blue tinted jelly base with blue glitters in various shapes and sizes. 

I decided to layer Songs of Neptune over a not so pretty shimmery blue polish from Mavala. It's called Paradise Blue and I think that is has a hideous frosty finish. But guess what, Paradise Blue was perfect underwear for Songs of Neptune! I applied three coats of Songs of Neptune because I wanted tons of glitter. I also added two coats of tc to smoothen everything out. Unfortunately the shimmer from Paradise Blue was still a tad too visible IMO so I decide to add one coat of matte top coat from OPI and that did the trick. Even though I ended up with quite a few layers of polish Songs of Neptune seems to 'flatten out' when completely dry. I really like this polish and I'm definitely going to layer it over other colours in the future.

If you want you're own bottle of Songs of Neptune head over to Edgy Polish. That's all for today, I'll "talk" to you guys tomorrow. Have a great evening :)
 Love,

Enchanted Polish - Flashing Lights

Hi lovelies! 

How have your day been? I've had a great day even though this day means the start of a very stressful week. Hopefully I'll survive :P I decide to try Flashing Lights from the latest Enchanted Polish collection to give myself some glitter energy. 

Flashing Lights is one intense glitterbomb. It's a clear based glitter polish, the glitters are golden prismatic glitters and they sparkle like crazy! I decided to layer it over a golden polish because I wasn't sure how many coats I would need for it to cover on it's own. I applied two coats of Flashing Lights over the golden base. The sparkle gives the impression that it covered fully even though I'm not completely certain that it did. The glitters spread evenly which always is appreciated. I thought that the glitters would leave an uneven and gritty finish but it didn't. I only needed one coat of tc to achieve a smooth and shiny finish. 

I know that it sucks that EP's are so hard to come by, I really like them so I will write blog post about the ones I have. I hope that's fine with you guys. What do you think of Flashing Lights? My boyfriend hates glitters so I guess you can imagine what he thought of it. Enough babbling, time for the pictures!    
That's all for today, have great evening and I'll "talk" to you guys tomorrow. 
Love,
Christina
