I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

China Glaze Galactic Gray

Another sunny day, another holo :-)



This is easy to use, easy to apply and quick drying (about 1.5 minutes for a coat). The formula is slightly thick but easy to work with. I didn't use the Aqua Base for this polish. It's a gorgeous black/charcoal holo polish and I really like how it looks :-) Lasted well.

  1. It seems that China Glaze likes making nail polishes with visible rainbows. Grey isn't my favourite shade, but this one looks OK :)

  2. Lovely on you Ananka!!! I think China Glaze was among the first who really enhanced the base colors in their holos with this collection and saved us from using Aqua Base Polish! These days I use my regular Base Coat under all holos except NfuOh, Fnug, Layla

  5. This is beautiful! I don't have any China Glaze holos only Color Club. The rainbow in the Color Club holos looks more spread out whereas this one is closer together and more compact if that makes sense? I wonder if it's the polishes or maybe just the curve of our nails? :)

    1. The CC holos are amazing! I quite like the CG holos too - but they are more subtle. Yeah I get what you mean lol :-) Probably the polish formula?

    1. It's cool! I like it. I've used the Aqua Base for two of them but not this one. I thought this one was more holo than the other two I've tried! :-)
