China Glaze - Re-Fresh Mint + stamping

Another konadicure in the same day as others, just for fun, but this one don't like me so much... I publish it anyway, but I would try again with some differences.

● CHINA GLAZE - RE-FRESH MINT

I love the entire Up & Away collection, inspired by one of my favourite movies ♥ More, I love pastels when they are so delicate like this pale mint green. Absolutely sweet but still no sugary.

● ESSENCE - ALL ACCESS

What a pity you can't see this polish alone, because it's very beautiful. This emerald green is deep and shiny, and perfect for stamping, too.

● CHRISTIAN DIOR - 604 SILVER PEARL

A silver foil/metallic polish. I guess it's very close to China Glaze - Jitterbug. A good formula (not bad not awesome) and perfect for stamping, over dark colors, too!

● STAMPING - BUNDLE MONSTER BM19

You can buy this image plate from Bundle Monster official site. This design is one of my favorite stamps, but I would find a colors combination that suits perfectly for it, because this one doesn't satisfy me as I wish.

Dior - Czarina Gold + China Glaze - Fairy Dust

When I saw this Dior limited edition polish, I couldn't rexist and I put it in my shopping bag. So beautiful ç___ç P.S. I paid for it, eh! By the way, I'm feeling a bit guilty for this polish: is Dior a cruelty free brand? I guess it isn't, and I wouldn't buy those brands. >___<

Pics 1-2 show Czarina Gold alone and 4-5-6 with Fairy Dust as top coat.

And a short video with an episode with  LOST in the background! ^__^;

 ● CHRISTIAN DIOR - 916 CZARINA GOLD

Love at first sight! When I've made this pic the sun was missing, so the color doesn't see brightly... By the way, it's a very dark coffee base with a subtle shimmer. Shimmer is gold/olive, it reminds me a little to China Glaze - wagon trail, MAC - seriously hip or Color Club - with abandon.

The better thing is the brush: short, large and tough. I applied the polish easily, and you need 2 coats for full opacity and a third one for shimmer deepness. It doesn't need for a shiny top-coat, and I guess should be wonderful with a matte top-coat.

● CHINA GLAZE - FAIRY DUST

I really love this top coat. It's a simple top coat with holographic glitters, but they are so sparkly and tiny that any polish reborns under it!

Pupa - 607 + Dior - 604 Silver Pearl + stickers

My second polish experiment was this: better application (just a bit better); no cleaning up, yet; weird shots again; nail shape? I'll find out about it sooner or later... ; cuticle are good for dinner *yum*

● PUPA - 607

I love this one. Is this a foil or a shimmer? Or a metallic one? Mmm... Actually I'm not so good for saying it, but I guess it's a ... Oh my gosh, I don't know! I'm searching for a dupe of this color, because Pupa polishes are pretty small: they have got just 5 ml of polish into their bottles, and this is very annoying, because they are thick after 2 complete manicures, and I'll have to add thinner so soon... Price is 4/6 euros, so I usually buy this brand only when I want to try a color I didn't try ever and I'm not sure if it could suit on my skintone, or if I need a polish for stamping nail (they are all perfect for that!). Seriously? I can't rexist however in front of Pupa display, I'm weak...

● CHRISTIAN DIOR - 604 SILVER PEARL

Another silver foil/metallic, but this one is darker than previous Pupa - 801. I guess it's very close to China Glaze - Jitterbug. A good formula (not bad not awesome) and perfect for stamping, over dark colors, too!

● STICKERS

These are a gift, so I don't know were they bought from, sorry.
