Nails Inc Shoreditch Lane

This is easy to use, easy to apply and quick drying (2-3 minutes a coat). It is a nice deep colour that is textured and guess it does have that "leather look". Lasted well.

**I tried to remove with foils and it stained slightly, but you can remove it easily without foils and it doesn't stain**

China Glaze Unpredictable

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (4-5 minutes a coat). It is slightly brush-strokey though. It is a lovely iridescent with green, gold and blue! Lasted well.

Dance Legend Termo 180

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It is a thermal polish going from black to white. This change wasn't great to begin with but after a day, it changed well...didn't get photos though! Running under hot water helps too. I guess these do have a shelf life. Lasted really well.

So we have come to the end of the 2018 Advent Calendar!

This is okay to use, okay to apply and okay drying (4-5 minutes a coat). Make sure you dip the brush in and out to get plenty glitters on the brush. It is a nice enough glitter!

Ciate 2018 Day 20 - Cookies and Cream

This is a doubler from 2012 and 2015. This one also had a damaged bottle lid.

This is okay to use, okay to apply and okay drying (4 minutes). I used one coat with this, whereas previous years it was 3. I think the formula was thick because of the lid being damaged. Or perhaps they've changed the formula? It is an okay polish, not really my colour.

Ciate 2018 Day 17 - Pepperminty

This is a doubler from 2013.

This is okay to use, okay to apply and okay drying (4 minutes a coat). It is quite streaky on the 1st coat but builds up nicely on the 2nd. It looks different from the previous time in 2013, this one is more dusky. Nice enough anyway.
