This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). This is the first time I have used this brand and found the brush to be really good. It is a lovely deep purple. Lasted really well.

Essie Congrats

So my first and only Essie polish so far!

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It is a really gorgeous glittery polish that is sparkly! The formula is really good and the brush is very good too. Lasted really well.

Deborah Lippmann Lady Sings The Blues

This is easy to use, easy to apply and slow drying (7-8 minutes a coat). It is a lovely deep blue with glitters. The glitters are prone to falling off, so I would suggest a top coat. It did last really well otherwise and no tip wear.

OPI Queen Of The Road

This is okay to use, tricky to apply and slow drying (5-6 minutes a coat). The formula is very runny so be careful when painting. It is a nice enough black and it lasted well but the formula sucks! Did anyone else have this problem or do I have a bad batch?

Happy New Year!

This is okay to use, okay to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It is streaky on the first coat, but okay on the second. It is a pretty lilac pastel purple! Lasted well.

Ciate Day 24 Party Popper

So we have reached the end of the calendar for this year! Have enjoyed it but slightly disappointed there were so many doublers!

This is okay to use, okay to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It painted okay but did need dabbed a few times! It is a gorgeous holo shards polish. I think it looks good on both the white and dark colours. I would advise a top coat, as it caught on hair and clothes. Lasted well.

Ciate Day 23 Snatch

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (2-3 minutes a coat). It is a lovely raspberry red colour. And it was a one coater as well. Though did get a little tip wear, so 2 coats may have been better.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (4-5 minutes a coat). It is an iridescent glittery polish. Looks good over the black, really stands out. It wasn't rough at all and didn't catch on anything. Noticed slight tip wear though.
