NOTD: China Glaze "Grape Juice"


So this is my 2nd polish for the summer collection Summer Days from China Glaze. "Grape Juice" went on a bit sheer for my liking, this is 3 coats, and if you had longer nails you would probably have the dreaded VNL, visible nail line. I have had to give up my long nails as desktop publishing and long talons don't gel. My nails have been a mess lately so I've given up and gone for a serious, right to the fingertip chop...


I love these polishes but they are gloopy and messy to apply. They also dry very slowly, even with Poshe, I know I might be waking up with sheet marks on my nails... But I love the colour and it's very glitter and summery and patience will be rewarded :)


This colour has no twin in my collection, it's on a line between purple and lilac!

Ååh, vad fint det är på! Har sett massor av swatches på det och har tänkt att jag ska skaffa och bära det i vår, men 3 lager but still VNL? Nääee... Kommer inte funka på mina längder.

I love ChG polishes in general, but the one thing about them that irks me is how long they take to dry! It seems like hours upon hours! Geesh.

Grape Juice is yummy looking. I got my collection this past weekend. I'll give it a whirl very soon.

Marie - ja det är väldigt skirt, tyvärr :( funkar nog bara om man har kortisar...

The Pretty Brown Girl - They are all lovely but they don't seem to go well with any of my combinations of base/top coats. Perhaps they need to be used with the ChG's own base/topcoats.
