Summer break is here!

It´s time for me to take my usual summer holiday at my cottage in the country. I do not have a computer there (nor an internet connection) which naturally forces me to pause the blogging for a few weeks. I will hopefully be doing a lot of swatching and will return in the fall with more inspirational nail polishes to show!

Topshop Nails - Moondance

 

Manicure: Nfu Oh "Aqua Base" and two coats of "Moondance" + Seche Vite.
Note: This sky blue dusty holo is a real summers polish! Easy to apply with an Aqua Base.
Grade: 4

Manicure: Nfu Oh "Aqua Base", two coats of "Red Taboo" and Seche Vite.

Kicks - Moon Galaxy

 

Manicure: Three coats of "Moon Galaxy" and Seche Vite.
Note: It says "top coat" on the bottle but was easy to make opaque in three coats. I must say it´s one of the most outstanding glitters I own.
Grade: 4,5

W7 - Space Dust

 

Manicure: Two to three coats of "Space Dust" and Seche Vite.
