1-colour-double stamping KOTD

Good morning, lovelies:)

A quick but picture heavy post today, with yesterday's NOTD with Essence Happy holiday. For stamping I used China glaze Millenium and konad im m57. I chose the fishnet all-over design and the flowers that are on the same plate. All pics except the last one were taken in my lightbox with artificial light. The last one was taken indoors with flash.

How do you like the end result?

Thank you, dear readers and commenters, have a nice and polished start of the week:*

Essence All I want LE Happy holiday swatch and NOTD

Hello, dear readers:)

Hope you're enjoying the last day of the weekend;) I took a few days off, and here's another polish swatch I have for you. It's from winter's limited edition from Essence named All I want. The polish is carries name Happy holiday and it's completely opaque in 2 coats, perhaps one thicker would also do. No problems with application also, although the tipwear is pretty visible soon. The colour is berry purple with subtle blue shimmer that sometimes hints to purple too. Lovely colour though:) I also added 1 coat of INM OutTheDoor topcoat.

What do you think of it? Do you own this colour too? Have any similar ones?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished day:*

CG Devotion KOTD (Purple on lavender)

 Hey, dear readers:)

Hope you had great holidays!

Sorry for not posting this konadicure yesterday but we took a day off and went to a thermal spa centre Thermana in Laško :) So here it is today, China glaze Devotion with a konad. I used Konad special nail polish in Violet purple and im m61 and a topcoat. The image was more visible IRL as it  is now in the pics, it was a bit difficult to capture on camera. The first 3 pics were taken in lightbox with artificial light and flash, the last one indoors with flash.

How do you like the end result?

Romantique: China glaze Devotion swatch

 Hello, dear readers:)

Happy Easter to you all!

I'm sure you've seen this polish a lot of times, but this is my first time to used it for a whole manicure. Until now I've used it only for konadicures and I have to say that before I bought Millenium this polish was my number 1 stamping silver polish, here's China glaze Devotion:)

There are 2 coats in the pictures, the drying time was pretty fast, though you can see some streaks. The colour is silver lavender like, hard to capture in photos, as with flash it always looks like pure metallic silver but I assure you the lavender is clearly visible in person. The first 2 pics were taken in lightbox, first no flash and the second with it. The last picture was also taken indoors and with flash in natural light.

What are your experiences with Romantique collection? Which polishes you own? Or would like to have?

I think this one looks great, and I'm planning to add a konad to it too:)

Thank you, dear readers and commenters, have a nice and polished day:* and Happy holidays XOXO
