NOTD: New York Color "Midtown" and China Glaze "Pink-Rox-E"




I originally put on China Glaze "Pink-Rox-E" (bottom), but I ended up ruining it AND getting a lot of nail polish stuck in my hair so I had to change. Instead I put on the new to UK New York Color: In a New York Color Minute nail polish - "Midtown". They had s lot of really lovely colours, and I got two which I liked the look of, this one and a sparkly bronzey brown called "Canal Street". This colour is very juicy with a deep fuschia shimmer and a slight jelly formula, it is an absolute cracking polish - I can see my toes in this all summer! It is very quick to dry as well (10x quicker than the top coat...)


Application of this new NYC polish is also very good, if a bit runny (it is 3 Free) and the brush is one of those great flat brushes that many brands are now introducing. This is 2 coats, you will need 3 coats if you don't like a bit of Visible Nail Line...


I am currently road testing Sally Hansen Diamond Strength 2-in-1 top and base coat. It is not a speed dry top coat, which is not so good as I am too fidgety and impatient to wait for polish to dry, hence the now sparkly nude nail polish nestled in my hair :( I will bring your a proper review when I have tested this top coat further...

I've only got one NYC - a yello I haven't had the chance to use yet. This pink is a nice shade.

I'm loving the ChG a lot - weird for me as I don't usually like pinks but this one is sooo pretty and feminine.

Very pretty color on you. I like the deep pink. Like the light pink also. What can I say, I like pinks.
