I have been Blogging since 2011. I first started with 2 Blogs about nail polish, which I do from time to time. My main focus is on my more recent Blog which is about photography, mainly nature and wildlife. Welcome to my little world :-)

Ciate 2018 Day 7 - Golden Hour

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (2-3). I would say the formula is prone to brushstokes though! It is a really nice coppery polish and think it would be good for stamping.
