IsaDora ~ Pink lemonade and All city brown graffiti

Here are two more of the Isadora polishes I got from Kia:



Two coats. Application was good, and dry time absolutely decent. The pictures are taken on day 3 so wear was pretty good aswell. In the bottle (and by name) this one looks really pink, however, atleast on my nails it looks more coral. In Norwegian we call what this one looks like "salmon pink" and that fits the bill pretty well imo. This was also my first experience with the IsaDora crackle polishes. It looked very unevern and "weird" when I applied it but as it dried it evened out nicely.

The crackle (or graffiti-) polish actually cracked a lot nicer on my right hand so here is a better pic


That is what i call a perfect crackle pattern. Pretty evenly distributed in both directions. I definately need more of these graffiti polishes.

Which crakle is your favourite?

IsaDora City Khaki

I was so lucky to win the giveaway hosted by Kia at NailsN'cupcakes earlier this fall, and a lovely package arrived a few days ago. One of the items in it was IsaDora's City khaki. This is a polish I've actually ogled for a while, but as I usually shop online, I rarely remember it when I'm actually IN a store, plus i still haven't really managed to justify the price when there are still so many pretty polishes I need (yes, i need them :-p  who cost a fraction, even with shipping. But now the wait is over:




It's a rather neutral grey-beige with a silver shimmer (pretty well visible in the second picture). Two coats, nice formula. The dry time was absolutely dreadful. Even with Fast forward it dented and nicked half an hour after application :-( But for the colour, I can live with it.

An apologies for indoor lighting. Daylight is getting to be a rare commodity here now, and being at work pretty much means darkness after I get home, fix dinner etc. So sunlit shots will have to be a weekend item until we reach March or so.
