Lemming Part II

Hello again ladies!

Yesterday I swatched Dance Legend's Gold Leaf top coat - today I am swatching their Silver Leaf top coat.

The formula of the top coat was great and so was the flakes of glitter pay-off! Just perfect!
Down below I used one coat over the blue nail polish OPI Dating a Royal.

I am in love with the two (Gold Leaf and Silver Leaf) top coats from Dance Legend - they are both pretty over almost any colour and they both have great formulas.
What do you girls think of them? Let me know in the comments!

Lemming

Hello ladies!

Some of you might remember my lemming for the Dance Legend Gold Leaf top coat. Well, I finally got it and today I tried it on!

The formula of the top coat was good - a little on the thin side, so I expected the flakes of glitter pay-off to be bad, but fortunately it was really good!
Down below I used one coat over the red nail polish Essie Lollipop.

This colour scheme really reminds me of China!

Waterfall

Hey girls!

I have been wanting to make a waterfall manicure for a long time now, so today I finally made one!

I started off with a light blue base of Essie Bikini so Teeny. Afterwards I followed this tutorial by Sam at The Nailasaurus, using the following colours: Essie Blue Rhapsody, Sally Hansen Pacific Blue, OPI Dating a Royal and Essie After School Boy Blazer.

I really love this manicure! It is definitely not the last time I am making a waterfall manicure!

Dance Legend Boggs

Hi guys!

I just couldn't get enough of the duochrome-effect, so today I decided to try on, swatch and review another polish from Dance Legend's Chameleon Collection - Dance Legend Boggs.
Boggs is an intense duochrome nail polish with a blue base and purple/pink color shifts - in extreme angles also orange/yellow colour shifts, but unfortunately I could not catch that on camera.

The formula was good - a little sheer and streaky on the first coat, but very easily buildable and opaque with two to three coats, depending on how you polish.
The duochrome-effect was really good - and I mean REALLY good! In extreme angles the purple colour shift make the polish appear a completely different colour than the blue base.
For the picture below I used two coats and top coat.

I have to repeat myself and say: I am in love with the duochrome effect in this polish! I cannot stop staring at it!

Dance Legend Roz

Hello ladies!

Today I have a swatch and review of one of the polishes from Dance Legend's Chameleon Collection - Dance Legend Roz.
Roz is an extreme duochrome nail polish with a magenta base and green/gold/bronze colour shifts.

The formula of the polish was okay - it was a little patchy on the first coat, but everything will even out on the second or third, given you wait a minute or two between each layer.
The duochrome effect in this polish is amazing - I mean wow! In extreme angles the polish is a completely different colour than the base! Just amazing.
For the picture below I used two to three coats plus top coat.

I am in love with the crazy intense duochrome effect! I cannot stop staring at my nails!
Do you agree with me here guys? Let me know in the comments!

Dice, dice, baby!

Hey guys!

Today I wanted to do something simple, quick and easy, so I decided on doing a cool dice manicure.

I started off with a white base of OPI Alpine Snow. Afterwards I used a medium sized dotting tool and some black nail polish to dot on the desired number of pips on each nail. And there you have it - so easy to do!

I really love how this turned out - so simple, but so cool!
Do you guys like this dice nail art as mush as I do? Let me know in the comments!

OPI Alcatraz...Rocks

Hi girls!

Today I have a review and swatch of an OPI liquid sand nail polish to show you guys - OPI Alcatraz...Rocks from their San Francisco Collection for Fall 2013.

Alcatraz...Rocks is a deep, smokey navy/purple textured nail polish with different colours of shimmers within - gold and purple being the most visible ones. A really unique and pretty polish!

The formula of the polish was great - a little on the thick side, but that only made it easier to apply, as it is filled with glitters and other heavy texture-pieces.
The opacity of the polish was also good - two thick coats and you are good to go! In extension of the opacity, the wear time is amazing as well. I wore it for a good four days without any chipping - and if it chips anyway, a little fresh polish on the chipped part fixes it easily and unnoticeably!
The dry time was also okay - half an hour to forty-five minutes before it is completely dry.

For the photos below I used two thick coats and no top coat.

Do you girls like this textured nail polish? Do you like textured polishes in general?
