Linda Johansen ~ Warm Grey
Warm grey crème – or dark
beige
It’s always interesting to receive new polishes for review, because you
never quite know what colours will show up. This polish was a surprise to
receive – I’m not usually into crème polishes, and pastels and nudes are certainly
not my thing. But behold – there is a very happy ending. Stay tuned and see for
yourself.
When I started applying this baby it was obvious to me that this is definitely
a quality polish. One of those polishes that are easy to apply, and that cover
well without any hassle.
“Warm Grey” is a one coater! I was amazed. I thought I was going to
apply coat after coat to make it opaque, but that was certainly not the case
here. I applied two coats for the camera, but believe me, one coat would have
done! One coat of Catrice Quick Dry & High Shine top coat, and here’s what
that looks like:
The polish has a really nice shine to it, and depth:
I think that it shows on the pictures that this polish is of really good quality, and a class product.
A timeless warm grey color that's a little bit more "edgy" than the classic Mannequin. Chic and elegant for those who want a discreet look and dare a little more. Not shimmer and a neutral undertone.
I don’t think I’ll go as far as to call this polish “edgy”, but that’s
probably just me :) I’ll show you what else this classy polish can do: Stamp!
I removed the grey from my ring finger and my thumb and applied one coat of Miss Sporty #313 – a lovely rich shimmery purple.
Then I stamped using the opposite colours – I used a design from Mash’s stamping plate Mash-30. I sealed it all up with one coat of Poshé top coat, and behold – Warm Grey works as a great stamping polish:
Here’s one last shot of it, just to show you the Miss Sporty polish as
well!
I am quite pleased to enrol this polish in my stash, knowing that it’s
great both as a base colour and as a stamping polish. I appreciate quality when
I have it, and it was a revelation how well this took to both stamping and
being stamped on. So yes – this ended up as a winner in my book! I told you it
ended well! :)

DeleteI like this color a lot. I think the name is very accurate. And the fact that it covers in only one layer, that is great!
ReplyDeleteI was seriously surprised that it was a one coater. That's always a win in my book :)
DeleteI adore grey polish, and its such a nice shade, I have a shellac, very similar colour. Fab designs, I must get out my plates and do some designing again!
