KIKO - 291, swatch

I have showed this polish in a lot of nail art's lately so I thought it deserved to be seen alone as well. ;) 291 is a purple creme from KIKO covering in 2 simple coats, doesn't it look great? :D







Bought on sale for about 2 euro.

Claire's - Ditsy Floral Blue, swatch and layering

Here's a fun matte glitter from Claire's. They're a brand I've started to like since I found it in Germany.

Ditsy Floral Blue has matte middle tone floral shaped glitters, matte hot pink hexes, semi matte metallic hexes and matte white and super light matte pastel blue hexes combined with tiny white hexes in two sizes, all in a clear base. Below is two coats and the flower glitter was very easy to get up, no fishing required at all. As for application I dabbed the flowers a bit, as you do with big glitters. I decided to layer this over KIKO - 330, a warm toned pastel purple and I think the result looks really cute. Top coat is a must since of the glitter size.









Bought Ditsy Floral Blue at Claire's for 3.99 euro.

Yes Love - P6, swatch and layering

Hi, today I'm showing a swatch of Yes Love - P6. P6 is a shimmer purple with golden duochrome tendencies. All pics are in cold light so naturally the the gold looks warmer in warmer light. I layered P6 over KIKO - 333 and used 3 coats to get the opaqueness I wanted.







I bought this in a small asian store in Germany for 2 euro. :)

NCC presents: Glittery gradient on pastel purple

Here is my second for the Nail Challenge Collaborative with the theme purple. This time I decided to use a pastel purple, or violet color and embellish it with a holographic and silver/blue glittery gradient. I actually really liked this, even though it felt a bit unexpected. This is also the same glitter polish I used for my NYE nail art, then I used a black base and it was interesting to see the glitter on a light background.


This is the most color accurate pic of the purple.

lol, this time it seems like I accidentally deleted my "polish pic" and the only one I had left was the pic with the names which I usually also take, but for my own reference. Decided to post this one anyhow. ;)
NYC - Starry Silver Glitter
Essence - A Whisper Of Spring
