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 Monte Carlo

This is an old one that I picked up from eBay a good few years ago!



This is easy to use, easy to apply and slow drying (4-5 minutes a coat). I think it's slow drying because it is the older version? This is a very pretty colour and I like it a lot! Lasted really well. You may notice my nails are really short compared to the last post? I was cutting them and ended up cutting them too short :-( Oh well I'll learn!!!!

  11. Cool shade, I like seeing old polishes too, we must nor forget the old gems, everything doesn't have to be new collections! I'm not a pink lover but the pink shades I love are the ones which are more hot pink, red toned like this. I still think your nails look good, but I know how annoying it is when I cut my nails shorter than intended! XD

  15. nice classic color! I tend to over file by accident too! i always think it doesn't look straight... so i'll go file the side that I think looks longer... and then the other side... and before i know it... :(
