Hello Dear nail-Art Lovers.
China Glaze marketing representative was kind enough to send me some China Glaze Metallic polishes for review - that was some kind of wonderful Christmas Miracle for me, because this is not often that companies send me polishes.
So here are those adorable colors that i have got - Adore, Millennium and My long time dream Sci-Fi . Where is no much need to say anything about formula - it is perfect as always. Colors are very opaque and look wonderful even with one coat. Perfect for Konad - as a base and as a Stamping polish as well. I also checked out, just for my own curiosity if China Glaze polishes are available in Russia, and i was pleasantly surprised that it it. it would cost about 10$ a bottle, which is a normal price for professional nail polish in Russia.
So here are the pictures and some description
1. Adore - this Metallic polish is from "Romatique" collection, but at first glance looks very similar to the one from the more recent Khrome collection. It is light green metallic with the touch of blue. The color is rich and beautiful - and aplication is really smooth.
Here is Metallic Muse from Kromes for comparability - as you can see it is also very beautiful color, but less bright when Adore. and i would say a little more minty.
2. Millennium - i would call it one of the best pure chrome metallic on the market. It is very competitive even against special Mirror effect polishes, because it shines, sparkle and reflect as a real metal. Metallics are long lasting hits and a part of any nail polish collection
3. Sci-Fi - this one is also from "Kromes". I wanted this polish ever since kromes came out - it is very intricate and provocative. I woudl call it a lacquer with the surprise. It is a silver metallic with the very gentle touch of lilack - very beautiful and very unique color.
I hope you liked this review, and it helped you to know more about China Glaze metallics

SPARKLES
On these nails we went all out! This is acrylic in nebula at the tip then I faded a glitter from sparklesnailproducts.com called masquerade ball at the smile line. Then, I added silver dots and black and silver stars. Is there such a thing as too cute?! :)
This is my cute sister in law! She is so nice she just goes along with whatever I want to do. I used my own purple and then a glitter from sparkles nail products again. Just an FYI for all my clients I just ordered 12 more glitters from their website.
If you are a reader of my blog you will recognize this color nebula with a little disco ball action at the smile line. It's obvious that I am going through a disco ball phase!
These nails are done with my new favorite glitter called disco balls and one of my own blues that I mixed myself. I added little silver dots and stars all over.
On these nails I used a glitter from sparkles nail products called blue diamonds and faded another one of their glitters called disco balls. LOVE their products! P.S. Click directly on this photo to see the detail of the glitter.

[From The Vault] My Very First NOTD!
Ik heb een mega-allergische reactie nadat ik een klein allergietestje heb gedaan dus ik wil de komende dagen even alles wat irriterend kan zijn vermijden tot de medicijnen werken. Geen nagellakremover en nagellak de komende dagen dus.
Ik wil toch iets posten dus ik laat jullie mijn allereerste NOTD foto zien die ik gemaakt heb voor het nagellaktopic op www.fok.nl Niet slecht voor een eerste foto al zeg ik het zelf!
Een funky french met twee laagjes Rimmel Jaded Glamour en een laagje Essence Bubblegum.
Ik hoop snel weer terug te zijn!
English: I'm having a major allergic reaction after doing a little allergy test so I'm going to try and stay away from anything that might irritate my skind for a couple of days until the meds kick in.
I did want to post something so I'm going to show you my very first NOTD pic that I made for the nailpolish topic on www.fok.nl Not bad for a first pic if I say so myself!
A funky french with two coats of Rimmel Jaded Glamour and one coat of Essence Bubblegum.
I hope to be back soon!
