Kinetics Rich nail polish from the Change It Up! Spring 2010 Collection – Review, Photos, Swatches

Hi everyone,

I know it has been a long time since my last post, I’m sorry about that but anyway I’m here now. Maybe I’ll post about all this unexpected absence of mine sometimes soon but for now I want to go back to product reviews.

Rich nail polish is a beautiful dark chocolate brown color which is part of Change It Up! spring collection by Kinetics. I love dark nail polish colors and Rich is one of them. It’s very opaque, even after applying the first layer you can see the strength of this color. I know it goes well on shorter nails but I wasn’t ready yet to cut mine, because I had more nail polishes to review and not all of them would look great on short nails.

This time because we are talking about a dark intense nail color I’ve applied a base coat. I have like 3 or 4 base coats for split nails, strong nails enriched with calcium, growth serum and one of my favorites is the base coat for yellow nails. This time I’ve applied the last one because I don’t want to see my nails starting to get yellow since I’ve been using and testing nail polishes non stop.

Kinetics Blameless nail polish from the Change It Up! Spring 2010 Collection – Review, Photos, Swatches

Change It Up! Spring 2010 Collection by Kinetics contains 7 new shades for spring and one matte top coat. Blameless nail polish is one of the colors included in this new collection.

It’s a nude color, a light peachy shade, very sheer on the nails. If you are looking for something natural this might be your shade and it looks great on french manicures.

Kinetics Bon Paris nail polish from the Change It Up! Spring 2010 Collection – Review, Photos, Swatches

Change It Up! Spring 2010 Collection is one of the most colorful collections by Kinetics in my opinion. Includes 7 beautiful polishes in bright, pastel or dark colors, just enough for everyone to choose a favorite.

Bon Paris is by far my favorite color from the entire spring collection. At first I didn’t gave it to much credit, but after I’ve seen the color on my nails I was definitely in love with it. Bon Paris is a purple grenadine color, very beautiful and opaque.

I’ve applied only two layers of Bon Paris to get this result. The texture is creamy but fluid enough to make the application a pleasure. The brush was also very helpful, it picked up enough product and glided on my nails without living lines. This color is one of my favorite and it looks so shiny even without a top coat.

After the jump you can read more about it and check out Bon Paris photos in matte variant and after 4 days of wearing it on my nails. Continue reading ‘Kinetics Bon Paris nail polish from the Change It Up! Spring 2010 Collection – Review, Photos, Swatches’

China Glaze Sun Worshiper nail polish from the Poolside Summer 2010 Collection – Review, Photos, Nail Swatches

Hello my dears,

Today I will review Sun Worshiper nail polish, one of the six colors of the Poolside Summer 2010 Collection by China Glaze.

This collection includes only bright colors and Sun Worshiper makes no exception from the rule. A few days ago I reviewed Pool Party nail polish from the same collection.

Sun Worshiper is an orange neon, with very fluid and light texture and with a matte finish. Once I applied it on my nails I realized it’s kind of transparent so 2 coats weren’t enough to make the color look more opaque. I’ve applied three coats of Sun Worshiper and in the photo bellow you can see the result.

I apologize for the photo quality (I still haven’t bought a new cam) and the shadows. Because the color has a matte finish I wanted to try and see how would it looked like if it were shiny. So, I’ve applied one layer of top coat and you can see the result in the photo bellow.

China Glaze Pool Party nail polish from the Poolside Summer 2010 Collection – Review, Photos, Nail Swatches

Hi everyone,

A few days ago I received a few nail polishes from the Poolside Summer 2010 Collection by China Glaze. I tested the Pool Party nail polish first since you know my addiction for pink. If you are interested in my China Glaze colors visit their website.

Pool Party is one of the 6 colors included in the Poolside collection. It’s said to be a bright color, a neon pink, but I noticed a difference in color after I’ve applied the nail polish and I let it dry for couple of minutes.

I love the color in the bottle, that bright pink almost similar to fuchsia but after the nail polish dries it changes to a more orange peachy shade.

Pool Party – 3 coats

In the first photo (sorry for the poor quality) you can see the result after I layered 3 coats of Pool Party. The texture is matte so if you like matte nail polishes you should give this collection a try. I don’t like to layer more than 2 coats of polish but this one was not opaque and I couldn’t seem to get the real color with only 2 coats. I can’t say that I’m happy with those 3 coats either because it tends to be a little transparent towards the top of the nail, so I’ve applied one layer of top coat.

In my opinion the shiny Pool Party shade looks better but you can wear it as you please. The application was OK, I had not problems with the brush whatsoever, it just picked up enough product so everything went smoothly.
