Essie ~ Wild thing and Color Club ~ Platinum record

Here's another random Essie (I do love the half price for Essie when signed in at Nailsupplies). This time Wild thing.

Dark raspberry shimmer with sparse holo glitter. I kept the really blurry one to show off these little (almost) hidden gems a bit better. Consistency was really runny and dry time was long, so it'll probably stay in a drawer for a while, but it really is pretty.

Due to the longish dry time I managed to completely mangle both my thumbs. So instead of re-applying the same one I wanted to try out Platinum record from Color Club.

For some reason I keep calling this one Platinum pieces, probably as that's what it looks like. It's really sparkly large silver hex pieces with some smaller silver and grey glitters inbetween. I do think it probably will look a lot better layered over a black or similar.

And for the full hand

So, what do you think?

Essie ~ Power clutch

Well, another virginity lost. My first ever Essie polish. Haven't gotten around to buying many of those yet as I tend to be caught up with all the loud, blingy, awesome (and very cheap) China Glaze and Color Club. Hopefully I'll get around to Essie a lot more in the future.

The pictures are blurry, but it's honestly the best I got. May have something to do with having to rush as the sun was setting really fast. Dark grey with a slight hint of green. Two coats, great application but a slightly long drying time. Great office-polish (well, Sio, with a name like that, what did you really expect huh??) And as I'll be wearing it tomorrow for a meeting with my boss where salary is one of the topics, here's to hopeing for a little help for the Power clutch. :-D

What do you generally think about Essie polishes? Any I really should try?
