Dance Legend Essence

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (4 - 5 minutes a coat). It's a really nice glitter with all different colours and it's iridescent too. It's glittery but not rough at all, very smooth. I think it will look great over a dark colour as well as solo! Lasted really well.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and quick drying (2 minutes a coat). It's a lovely texture with a great shimmer. It's not too rough either! I think it's sort of like icy nails! Lasted well.

Nubar Mali Blue

Photobombed again!!!!

This is easy to use, easy to apply and slow drying (5-6 minutes a coat). It's an older version so I think that might explain the slow drying time! It's a really pretty blue. Noticed slight tip wear but lasted well otherwise.

Day 24 - Ciate Rom Com Rouge

The end of another advent calendar! It's been good :-) There was only a few doublers and a few treatments and glitters. And I've liked a good few of the colours :-)

Merry Christmas to one and all.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (2-3 minutes a coat). It's a nice red glitter and I wanted to show it solo! I'm thinking it would look good over a white! Very festive! Lasted well.

Another doubler from 2012. See here: Cookies & Cream.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It's a good quality nail polish, just really no my colour. I don't think it looks that great on me :-| Lasted well.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and quick drying (2-3 minutes a coat). I'd have to say this went on nicely! It's a kinda mushroom putty colour. Not I'm not really a fan of browns but I did like this one oddly enough! Lasted really well.

Day 20 - Ciate Nail Gym

This is a treatment. I wasn't quite sure about it, apparently makes the nails stronger! And can also be used as a base coat. So that's what I did and used it with Avon Graphite.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and quick drying (1-2 minutes a coat). It does feel nice on the nails, quite hard to explain LOL! Had to say it did work well as a base coat.
