Turned Up Turquoise

So, Turned Up Turquoise... This is SUCH a pretty polish!

 When I first got it I was quite disappointed when I discovered it was a matte polish but the longer I had it on the more I fell in love with it.

I applied a Rimmel base, two coats of China Glaze's Turned Up Turquoise and a coat of my matte top coat Soft Touch by Essence just to keep it extra matte.

The colour is so vibrant and eye catching, and it was one of those manicures where you are super aware of using your hands and keep trying to show them off to people 'without meaning to'... Maybe that's just me that does that...

But anyway, I love this polish and I really think I'm starting to get the matte bug!  I just want to put a matte top coat over every polish now! I'm very impressed with this polish and I totally understand why it gets so many fantastic reviews :)

Trendsetter

 Trendsetter by China Glaze is a very unique nail polish colour.  I've never seen anything like it and I'm very undecided about it.  On the one hand I love how different it looks and when I had it on I couldn't stop looking at my nails, but on the other hand I couldn't decide if I was fascinated by it's prettiness or ugliness...

I applied a Rimmel base, two coats of Trendsetter and a coat of 2true top coat.  But with it just like this I really wasn't satisfied, I felt like I would be hiding my nails to stop people from seeing them, not what you want when you have just bought a new polish!!  So I added a full nail floral design with my Bundle Monster stamping plates and I was so much happier!! I loved my nails after this!

So the moral of the story is, if you have an ugly nail colour, just cover it up with pretty stamps! :)

But seriously though, I would definitely do it again with this stamp, I totally love it now!

Traffic Jam

 I have a lot of deep pink/purple nail polishes but this is definately one of my favourites!

I love the application of China Glaze polishes and this one is so pretty on.

I applied a Rimmel base coat, two coats of Traffic Jam, a green floral design with my stamping plates and 2true top coat.

I really like the stamping on this.  The green polish I used for stamping I've never really liked and I think I've only ever used it once, but for stamping it's fantastic!

Super cute mani, I liked it :)
