China Glaze various polishes (5) swatches and review

Look who's still kicking? Yeah I know, I'm pretty impressed myself I'm blogging, but I really need to get some posts off my chest. One of which is a review and swatches of 5 polishes from China Glaze, mainly from last fall's collection, so here we go! 

А кто это тут живой? Да-да, самой удивительно, что я пишу пост в блог, но завелись тут за мной несколько кармических должков, от которых пора бы избавиться. Один из них - свотчи и обзор пяти лаков China Glaze, к чему я и предлагаю без дальнейших прелюдий перейти.

Dance Legend Mortal Kombat collection swatches and review

I'm leaving on holiday today, and it's almost 4 am as I'm writing this, but I couldn't leave without giving you a review on Mortal Kombat collection, which is limited edition: only one thousand bottles of each of three shade comprising the collection was released. Let's get to them!

Сегодня я улетаю отдыхать, и пишу я этот пост, когда на часах уже почти 4 утра, но я не могла уехать, не опубликовав обзора на коллекцию Mortal Kombat, которая является лимитированной: всего было выпущено по тысяче пузырьков каждого из 3 составляющих коллекцию оттенков. Ну и сразу к делу!

Dance Legend Tinsel swatches and review

Dance Legend Tinsel is a part of Candy Flakes collection, a brilliant green jelly with trnasluscent multichrome green to yellow to orange flakies. Out of the 3 polishes I recieved for review from this collection I found Tinsel to be the most pigmented, which allowed me to weaк it without undies. The finish is generally smooth, with only a bit of texture from the flakies, which is easily concealed with a coat of topcoat. I do recommend a peel-off basecoat for non-hassle removal - while flakies are not as painful to get rid of as glitter, they still can be a pain in the ass.

Dance Legend Tinsel - часть коллекции Candy Flakes, желе цвета зеленки с полупрозрачной мультихромной зеленой слюдой, имеющей желто-оранжевый отлив. Из 3 лаков, полученных мной на обзор из этой коллекции, Tinsel оказался наиболее пигментированным, что позволило мне носить его без подложки. Родной финиш в целом гладкий: хотя некоторая текстурность от слюды присутствует, она без труда маскируется слоем топа. В целом под этот лак и под коллекцию я все же рекомендую использовать пил-офф базу: глиттер, конечно, оттирать еще сложнее, но и слюда снимается далеко не так просто, как кремы и желе без включений.

31 days challenge. Day 6: violet nails

Ok, so i kind of failed the 'paint your nails every day' challenge, but as the pattern part is coming it's getting challenging enough for me, since i have really unsteady hands. Plus the law school and social life - now i actually have some, the leadership camp has brought me a new boyfriend! Anyway, i decided to take it easy and repaint my nails at a usual pace and actually enjoy the nail art i'm about to do. Now that supplies from Born Pretty Store have arrived, i can do some looks i've been looking forward to.

As for now, here are my violet nails. I did them the day i returned from the leadership camp i was a staff member at, having slept only 2 hours that night, so imagine how exhausted i was and please forgive the not-the-most-accurate way i applied nail polish that time.

I used 2 coats of Orly Fowl Play from Birds of a Feather collection. It's a gorgeous purple jelly base filled with copper and blue flakies and silver glimmer.

I had to use flash to take these photos 'cause it was already dark outside, and i don't have a lightbox yet, but this way you can see best just how gorgeous this polish is.

Please click on the photos to enlarge them and appreciate the texture.
