Black with blue glitters

Using elianto (Twilight zone 40) black nail polish as the base. One coat is enough and it is easy to apply too.








Dorothy Who? from China Glaze is a fine shiny blue glitters. One coat is too sheer and the glitters are not intense as the other china glaze glitter polishes which i have.

Review :

1. Fast track is a cool beige with gold micro-flecks. Easy to apply onto the nail and 1 coat is enough to see the micro flecks.

2. Smoke and ashes: 1 coat will make u feel that it has a ink type of base and the blue micro-flecks are not that obvious. However, 2 coats will give u a nice black base and blue micro-flecks are so pretty.

3. Luxe and Lush: a coat by itself will give u a matte look. The flakes are in flecks of fiery orange, blue and a light pink. 2 coats and a top coat will bring out the flakes nicely.

4. Shine of the Times: recommended by TimTam & my sis. Both love the effects of chrome effect. 1 coat is enough on my smoke and ashes to make the nail look chrome

Daiso $2 Nail Care Gel Essence Review

I bought this gel essence tube at Daiso Bukit Panjang on sunday. It costs $2 only ! So no harm in buying and trying it out.

The essence has a peach scent. Sweet smell and i love it!! The brush is soft in texture.
I dont find the essence to be in a gel form as it is quite light in texture.
Its also not that oily or sticky. Its quite similar to OPI Avoplex Cuticle Oil To Go except OPI costs more and 1x application is enough to make your dry cuticles to be moistursed.
For Daiso gel essence, I need to apply 2x or more for each nail in order to moisture my cuticles.
So since it costs only $2 and i find it to be value in $ :).

Will purchase it again when i go to Daiso the next time

China glaze near dark

Dark green which looks like black at some angles. Used 2 coats but still look sheer to me.

Prism From China Glaze

Prism - intense micro purple glitters with slightly larger round blue, silver, orange, and pink glitter. Overall, the nail  polish appears as purple base. Use 2 coats and easy to apply.
