China Glaze Skyscrapper & CG In The City



The newest collection from China Glaze offers a lot of city or 'metro' colours, just like the name 'Metro Collection'. The collection offers a range of colours from dark red to to concrete colour. Fans out there were going crazy about this collection, but I don't really feel that hype at all. In fact, I had a hard time deciding which colour I need to get from this collection. My eyes went straight to the glitter polish, and I decided that I need to get CG In The City and Skyscrapper. I don't think I need to review anything like application for China Glaze, as you know, it is amazing.



CG In The City is a very unique colour, clear base, fine glitters in lilac, dark purple (black?) and a little bit of orange. It gives out a dirty city look. It is very pretty and very unique. I can say this colour is my favourite from the collection.



Skyscrapper has a blurple (blue purple) jelly base with blue and silver glitters in it. It looks very gorgeous and reminds me of starry sky above the city. Actually, it reminds me more to Van Gogh's Starry Night painting..

I bought these polish myself.

NOTD: Nude Glitters



This has been on my nails for 3 days already. It is 3 coats of OPI Mr. & Mrs. Mimosas and 1 coat of Deborah Lippmann Glitters In The Air. Glitters In The Air is one of the two Deborah Lippmann nail polish I have, and it is my favourite from all Deborah Lippmann's polish. Maybe because I love baby blue and baby pink, maybe cause it has the blue-ish milky base, maybe cause of the name. But I love it. Even though I said that, I totally hate how sheer the polish is. I can almost say that I hate wearing it without another colour as a base. My nail tips shows really clearly and it really uglified the whole thing. So here I have Mr. & Mrs. Mimosas as base coat to hide that ugliness.

Mr. & Mrs. Mimosas is not my favourite nude colour at all. It is very hard to apply on my finger, I don't know if it is because of the formula or is it me, but i keep getting bald spots! 2 coats usually are opaque already but I had to do 3 coats on this particular mani. Don't know why I did that, but i think it was because of some bald spots, just in case.

Overall, I really like this mani. It makes my hand looks more feminine. I don't usually wear nudes or light colour since there was some people who said it doesn't suit my hand. And well I do feel awkward with it. But this mani makes it a whole different experience! I LOVE IT! it's super cute!

Models Own Smash Up Crackle



I have been procrastinating on writing my blog lately, cause I have been busy on other things. I got a package for me a few days ago and it is from Models Own It. They had a giveaway contest on their Facebook page last month, to commemorate on their 50,000 Likes on their page. There were several giveaway sessions and I was lucky enough to be one of the ten runner up for their 48,000 Likes giveaway session. The runner up prize for that session was a set of their famous Smash Up Crackle Polish! On their site they only have 5 colour choices for the crackle polish collection. But I got 6 polish! Including the gold crackle which was not on the site for sale.
