Wet ´n Wild Eggplant Frost

Goodmorning!

Todays polish might actually be close to the new Orly Royal Velvet from their spring line. And SpaRitual Health Wealth and Happiness. But since I don´t own either of them, I can´t do a comparison.

Wet ´n Wild is a very cheap brand and I wish they would be sold here. But there´s always eBay, although they are a lot more expensive on eBay... And you can try abeautifulsecret.com, they also sell some Wet ´n Wild polishes.

The brush of Wet ´n Wild is very small, but that´s ok, you can work very precize with a small brush. For Eggplant Frost I used 2 coats for full opacity. It´s a really rich shade. The base color is a red toned purple and it has a blue toned purple flash. Pretty!

With a coat of my favorite TC (China Glaze Fast Forward) it´s even more shiny.

Have a look


What do you think? I really think it´s gorgeous!

Thanks for stopping by!

Zoya Jules

Hi girls!

The polish I´m showing you today is from the new Zoya collection. You´ve probably seen it on many blogs already, so did I. That was actually why I was kind of surprised when I applied it. I really thought it was more of a soft gold shade, but it's actually a nude or light beige base with gold shimmer. Pretty, but different than expected. This is definitely work appropriate.

There was actually something else I was surprised about. It was opaque in 2 coats, while I expected at least 3 would be necessary. Nice surprise I´d say :-)

Here she is, Miss Jules


Sorry for the sloppy job I did on this one. But there was sun and I really wanted to hurry up to catch good light. So no time to do clean up and I worked faster than I usually do.

Zoya´s application is always nice, well, at least for the ones I´ve got.

So, what is your favorite Zoya of all time? And which one is your favorite from this collection?
I think my all time favorite Zoya is Mimi or maybe Valerie or Cheryl. And from this collection I guess it will be Dannii, although I haven´t even tried it yet, haha.

Have a great day!

Claire´s Emerald City

Hello ladies!

Another Claire´s polish today. It´s green and it´s metallic, yay! This polish dried really fast, I was surprised. I didn´t wear this yet, only swatched this. After painting 4 nails, the first one was already dry! So if you´re not fond of always using quick dry topcoat, this is a perfect polish for you.

This is 1 coat of Emerald City


I especially like how it looks in the first picture (artificial light).

That´s all for now, hope to see you back here tomorrow!

Bloom Mena

Goodmorning!

Happy Valentine´s Day! I don´t have a Valentine´s mani, but I figured you would see enough of them on other blogs today ;-)

I know I´ve shown you this polish before in a comparison, but never on its own. The idea of this polish is pretty awesome, black with holographic glitter. In direct light (and I don´t mean just regular daylight) you can see the holo glitter, but without that you only see a plain black polish. The good thing is that it is opaque in just one coat. But I´m not sure if this is a keeper.

Here are the pictures taken very close to a lamp.


I do think Blogger makes the pictures a bit dull. When I was editting the pics the holo glitter was a lot more visible and now you can hardly see it at all.

Enjoy your day!

Ozotic 50

Hello!

Another Ozotic today. No one really seems to think it´s worth to show other Ozotics than the multichromes and some holos, but they really do have other nice shades. The one I´m showing you today is actually kind of a duochrome, or maybe just a purple with a flash in another purple color, haha. It is a thin and sheer as the multichromes as well. After the first coat I hardly saw anything on my nail. But after 3 coats it was pretty awesome.


Yes, beautiful!

Thanks for stopping by!
