Essie - Mink Muffs


I apologize for the terrible picture. It looks too red and guh.

As I told you, I also got this polish, and I'm so excited! It's a warm, dark taupe. I think it's already on the edge of being brown. The polish dries a tad bit darker than it looks like in the bottle, I experience that with most taupes.

Dryingtime was excelent, I love the color. I think I'll be using this color a lot more from now on, it looks really subtle.

They say this one is a dupe of Chanel Particuliere, but it's a little more warm, as of what I see in pictures. But this polish completely took away my need for this Chanel.

Holographic topcoat by China Glaze and Frodo!



The other day I bought the Holographic topcoat by China Glaze. I put it over Dust & Diamonds of H&M, the one I had on yesterday, and I loved the result. It makes the polish look really holographic. Which was a surprise to me, you can;t see anything in the bottle to be fairly honest.

Haha, it's funny, I thought of this earlier and after that someone else pointed it out to me, about 4 months ago I said holo's didn't do anything for me. I had TMI by China glaze. I loved it the first time, the second time not so much anymore, and the third time I used it in a swap. Didn't like it anymore. Then I bought Holographic by Gosh, and that didn't do anything for me either, the holo dulled out after a day and I thought it was me. No more holo's for me.

But I fell in love with them again (I want a Nfuh Oh holo <3). And this topcoat can make anything a holo polish.

DUMDUMDUM
FRODO!

H&M - Dust & Diamonds



Sorry for not posting! First, I went on a holiday (And didn't mention it, internetparanoia, you never know who reads it), then when I came home, we got a puppy (I will post pics soon), and then I celebrated my birthday. Finally, a day of rest!

I went to the H&M the other day, and I saw they had new polishes. This taupe and yellow, and some other colors. I decided to go for the taupe one. Couldn't buy it myself, sadly enough, so it's a gift.

Today I decided to put it on my nails. I have a weakness for taupes. At first, I thought taupes were yucky and ugly and beh (Sorry if I insult you by saying this). But then I put one taupe on my nails for the first time and I fell in love. It's such a flattering color. Almost all taupes look good on me.

The application was good, this is two coats. It dried quickly. As you see, the color in the bottle is slightly lighter than the color on my nails. This is how it also looks in real life, I think it's about two shades darker. I like it.

What do you think?
