Nail Happy!
Met up with lovely Melva from Nail Vibe for lunch, and she passed me the polishes i’ve ordered from her.
L-R:
China Glaze Ruby Pumps, OPI Midnight Ride, CG Fairy Dust, CG C-c-courage, OPI Otherwise Engaged, Seche Quick Dry Base Coat, OPI Pink in hearts II. Got the Avoplex cuticle oil too and passed it to Mum.
(She let me try out Ruby Pumps, and it’s uber chio and sparkly a red… unfortunately i’m not a fan of bright reds. This bottle’s for Pris.)
Here’s a fast swatch of my orders:
Fairy Dust, Fairy Dust over Otherwise Engaged, C-c-courage.
Fairy dust is one of the most gorgeous colors i’ve ever seen. As a topcoat. No huge shiny glitters/flakes, but attention grabbing enough. I couldn’t stop admiring my nails after I applied it once. I love using it over shades I’ve grown tired of. Reflects green, blue, red… as per pic above! Well i think the BB’s image quality isn’t as good as the LX3 but it sure captured it well here.
C-c-c-ourage looks absolutely stunning. It was a rich shade of purple which wasn’t too light for my liking, and full of shimmer! Love! Only thing is that when it dries it seems to feel a little semi matte to me. Neverthemind though, just apply top coat, and all’s shiny and dandy.
Seche’s base coat works really fast.
I have Otherwise Engaged on my nails now, and they look very sweet. And unique. As Scrangie describes it, there’s a “blue flash” in it and it shows when you tilt your fingernails in different angles. Very lovely shade. Sheer, but 2 coats will give you better coverage. If you’re going french with this, 3 coats will do the trick nicely! : D
