Morgan Taylor - Sunset Yellow

This is the first of the jelly toppers you put on the Chrome Base.

Last photo is from my phone all others normal lighting.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It is one coat over the Chrome Base. It looks great and like a golden colour. The brush was good and made application easy. Lasted really well.

Christian Louboutin - Coccinella

 

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (2-3 minutes a coat). The brush is really good and it is easy to paint with despite being a very long lid! 1 coat would have done but I used 2 here. It is a gorgeous orangey/red colour. Lasted really well and great quality.

Morgan Taylor - Chrome Base

 

This is easy to use, easy to apply and slow drying (5-6 minutes a coat). It is slightly brush strokey, but not so bad! It is a mini bottle but the brush is really good. It is a gorgeous and shiny silver, very bold! It is from the Chrome Set that was a gift. The idea is you have the silver base and jelly colours on top. So I will post them over the next few weeks! This lasted well.

Yves Saint Laurent - Holographic Black

 

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (4-5 minutes a coat). It is a nice black polish with silver glitters. The polish is slightly matte too. The brush was good. The polish wasn't rough at all. Lasted okay and it is a nice black.

Color Club - Gingerbread Man

 

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (4-5 minutes a coat). It is a nice gold foil and it is scented too. The scent is very strong when painting - just like sweet ginger cookies - but faded soon after drying and I could barely smell it. It is an old polish so maybe that is why is scent was weak? Sadly this polish didn't last well either, it chipped the next day! So if you want it to last longer I suggest a top coat!

OPI - Manicurist Of Seville

 

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (4 minutes a coat). It is a rich berry colour, hopefully I have captured it well! 1 thick coat would have done but I have used 2 here. It is really nice and lasted well.

China Glaze - St Martini

 

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (5-6 minutes a coat). It is a older polish, so didn't mind the drying time. It also has a thin brush but it is good to use. It is really nice pink with a subtle shimmer. Lasted really well and gorgeous!

Ciate Day 24 - Silver Lining

So we have come to the end of our 2020 journey for this Calendar. I always feel a tad sad at the last post, but let's do it all again next year :-D

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). I think it looks good solo and over the dark blue. You get really good coverage in just one coat too and it is very shiny and sparkly! It is also smooth, so doesn't need a top coat. I think this is a great way to end the Calendar! Lasted really well.

Ciate Day 23 - Oil Slick

 

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It is a lovely iridescent polish and very similar to Chanel's Peridot. I really like these sort of iridescent shades! This looks great and lasted really well.

Ciate Day 22 - Dangerous Affair

 This is a doubler from: 2012, 2015 and 2018. Seems to be a popular one!

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (4-5 minutes a coat). It is a nice deep vampy shade. As mentioned in the 2018 post, this is different from 2015 and 2012. I think it does look similar to the 2018 version though. It sadly didn't last well and is prone to tip wear, so wear a top coat for longevity. Sadly these type of shades are prone to tip wear with me!

Ciate Day 21 - Watermelon Burst Hydrating Lip Oil

 So this isn't actually a nail polish today! Oh well, strange!

This is a nice lip product. It does taste lovely and my lips felt better after putting it on.

Would have preferred a polish though! Even a nail treatment or file!

Ciate Day 20 - Desert Lights

 This is a doubler from 2017.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (5-6 minutes a coat). It is a nice purple iridescent colour with silver dots. There are also pewters and greens too. This lasted really well.

 This is a doubler from 2017.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (4-5 minutes a coat). It is a nice dark blue polish with silver glitters. I think it is slightly less sparkly than the 2017 version. Lasted really well.
