Hi!
Today I'm going to show you 2 nail polishes from
Madam Glam. Madam Glam is a store from USA that sells gel and regular nail polish (they also sell other decorative cosmetics). They offer a wide variety of colours, but the most interesting thing in their store is definitely colour change gel nail polish and gel nail pens!
Today I have swatches of two nail polishes prepared for you.
Glitter My Life
A beautiful silver glitter/sand finish nail polish with larger hexagonal glitter. I think this is a must have in every girls collection! It looks elegant and because of the sand finish it has a special touch. I already know that I'll wear this one on new year's eve!
I used 2 coats, application was super easy and it dried pretty fast.
(did not test the wear time)
I also did some nail art on it. I used stripping tape and Essie Licorice as a base. I really like the way it turned out!
Wine Divine
This one is also a classic that every girl should have. It is a dark magenta with magenta shimmer that gives it a lot of depth.
I used 3 coats, because I had some bald spots after second coat and I was afraid that it will be noticeable in the pictures. Nail polish itself dried fast. Sometimes nail polishes that are packed with shimmer leave brush strokes on my nails, but this one didn't which gives it another bonus point!
I also played a little with this one! I used Pueen 38 and BarryM Gold foil. On all of the nails the design is the same I just turned it a little or I did not transfer the image completely. To me it looks like Christmas ornaments.
I'm not completely satisfied, because it could look better, but it is still wearable =)
The store also offered and early Black Friday coupon code which will give you 40% off on items in your shopping chart. Just use code BFColorfulbottle!
Hi!
Time for the third manicure out of 40 planed in my Nail Art Wednesdays challenge. This time not only that I did some nail art, I also chose all of the polishes from my untried polishes box. I really rarely or practically never wear green on my nails (the only 2 colours I avoid more are yellow and brown), this is why I really don't understand how it is possible that I have about 10 green polishes in my untried pile (OK, I do understand why they are untried, but I do not understand WHY I BUY THEM???).
For this manicure I used:
Kiko: 32 Lime green
Sinful Colours: Happy Ending
Peripera: Metallic green
China Glaze: Jolly Holly
stripping tape and cosmetic sponge
Essie Good To Go

| You can see that my manicure cracked on my ring and middle finger. The reason for that is that I applied fast drying top coat on top of my manicure very sloppy |
You can see that I did and awfully bad clean up, I really have to start thinking about buying liquid palisade or something similar.
I just had to add a different picture in my post, a little close up on the gradient.
I really like it was on my nails for 4 days and this rarely happens! It looks like I'm TURNING GREEN =)
Soooo...
it's been a long time ( more than 2 years to be more precise ). I suddenly got an urge to write something on my blog which needs a serious update.
This time I'm going to show a beautiful dark red shimmer-a classic from China Glaze, China Glaze Short & Sassy. This was probably one of the first nail polishes from China Glaze I liked and is probably the reason why my love for China Glaze emerged.
This pictures are from my archive and are at least 3 years old (sorry for the awfully dried out cuticle)
You can see how it comes to life in the sunlight. I never regret putting this one on my WL, the only thing I regret is that I wore it only once! (I know, shame on me)
I also played with some stripping tape, but it is more of a fail than a success. It looks like I'l have to play with tape more often.
I wish you all a lovely day and happy bogging!
Hi!
I see striping tape manicure everywhere all the time, so I decided ( a while ago) to try it out, and I must say that I really LOVE what I ended up with.
I used striping tape I got from ebay, I'll make a review post in the near future (this time I mean it)
For this manicure I used China Glaze Millennium as a base and China Glaze Deviantly Daring on top. Each was applied in one coat =)
The only downside of this manicure was that it started chipping in less than a day! But at least I got to change my nails =)
Do you like it?
Have you tried striping tape manicure?
