About Me

My photo
Scotland
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 :-)

Orly Color Blast - Granite (Luxe Shimmer)

 



Last photo in the sun, all others in the indoor lighting.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (2-3 minutes a coat). The brush is medium sized and good. It is a black based polish with silver and holo glitters. It is slightly textured but not too much and doesn't catch on anything. I took the last photo in the sunshine at a pond that I visit most days. I love ponds and all the wildlife and creatures that live in and around ponds. Anyway this lasted well too.

Rating
Easy to use = 8/10
Application = 8/10

Lasted well = 8/10
Coats = 2
Finish = glittery/holo glitter
Removal = okay with foil method, let soak for 1 minute
Overall = 9/10
Purchased from = TK Maxx

My Personal Rating = 7.5/10

    Your nails look good, and I like the scene in the background :)
    That pond looks a nice place for a walk.

    All the best Jan

      Not too bad if you use the foil method. :-D

    It's good it comes off after a minute of soaking! it looks like it would be really stubborn to remove, although so very pretty! :)

    Hope your week is going well :)
