Milani ~ Sugar Burst

Hi friends!! I found Milani Sugar Burst on clearance at Walgreen's the other day and the holo caught my eye. Of course my husband being the amazing guy he is grabbed it as soon as I was like ooohhhhh!!!! At first I just though this was a glitter topper. It says on the bottle that it is a "textured nail lacquer with bold shimmer.". It definitely wasn't textured like the average polish. Just chunky from the amount of glitter. It has a flat brush which I love. I used 3 coats and still had some visible nail. The base was very thick so I would either use this as just a glitter topper or maybe sponge on layers. The glitter in this polish is micro, small, and medium baby pink hexes and very tiny baby pink bars. It also has a good amount of micro holo hexes. Still unsure how I feel about this polish! What do you think?

 

 

China Glaze ~ Seahorsin' Around

Hello!!I had the intention of showing you the rest of the China Glaze Sea Goddess collection, but I really didn't like the way any of my pictures came out after giving them a second look. So for now I have just 1. At least its a pretty one. This is Seahorsin' Aound. I love how much it flashes and shimmers. Blue, green, gold!!! Totally captures the feel of the ocean on a really sunny day and the water is just sparkling under the sun!! Totally perfect. This was 3 coats but would have been fine with 2. I just like the extra texture of the layers :) It dries matte although like pretty much all of this collection it just shimmers so much you cant tell. I did add a top coat to my ring finger. I prefer it without topcoat though. An all around wonderful polish!! See for yourself :)

China Glaze ~ Shell We Dance?

Good afternoon my friends! For the past few months I have doing nail mail swaps with Mildred. (@millnpolish on instagram). She has cheaper access to my favorite main stream brand and I have... Well, depends on the time of swap! Yesterday I received a package from her with 5 of the 6 polishes from the China Glaze Sea Goddess collection. The only one I am missing now is Sand Dolla Make You Holla. I should have it pretty soon ;) Today I have Shell We Dance? I am such a sucker for textured polish. I just love it so much!!! This one did not disappoint! I used 3 thin coats of this dusty, matte, rosy color. Even though it is matte, it has quite the sparkle and shimmer. In fact it doesn't even look too matte at all. More an effect of the texture. And for a textured polish goes on very smoothly. I feel that CG has definitely upped their textured game! I did use top coat on my ring finger but I skipped it on the rest so you could get an idea of just how textured this polish is. I cannot wait to swatch and show you the rest :D This polish has small metallic silver and rose glitters and a slight shimmer that just make this polish pop! See for your self and let me know what you think!!
