Surprise...

This little beauty really came as a surprise!
I´ll travel to the States again later in the year and that gives me the opportunity to order Opi, Essie, Deborah Lippman at prices a European girl can only dream of. Especially as I can have them sent to a relative and that makes them cheaper still.
Addicted as I am to nailpolish, 16€ for an Opi is still a price I am not willing to pay.
But when visiting our local chemist I fell for this little number: Raspberry Fields Forever by Clarice.

It´s really not expensive at all, but applies well, looks nice after one coat (though I am wearing two in the pic) and shows no chips and damages even after gardening (with gloves of course). I used Essence Gel-Look Topcoat on it, which is not entirely satisfactory. It takes forever to dry and even if you are extremely careful id will still get dents and bubbles a long time after applying.

So here goes!

I created this one out of three polishes I did not particularly like for a number of reasons.
1) Nivea Flex and Strong Bamboo Natural Beige (didn´t suit my skin tone)
2) Nivea Calcium Power Gloss Fuchsia Gloss (streaky, not opaque enough)
3) Essie Sole Mate (no colour at all, almost black on the nail)

The mixture is quite pleasing though. I think I´ll keep it.
The Collection is growing!

This Blog will be all about my nail polish collection.
Let´s talk about colour, girls!
