El Corazón Confetti ~ 505a
Magenta microglitter in a
darkened jelly base
Here’s another one of my Russian beauties, this time from the Confetti
collection.
The formula is a little bit thin, but surprisingly enough it’s still
really easy to work with and the coverage is really good. It was almost opaque
after one coat, but I applied two coats in order to enhance the depth. The
polish dries up a little bit dull and gritty so it does require a layer of
topcoat to make the glitter shine.
Here’s two coats plus one layer of topcoat:
The polish is topcoat hungry, which means that it soaks up the topcoat.
So 10 minutes after I applied my topcoat, it required a second layer to stay
glossy and smooth.
Look how shiny and pretty it is:
The glitter of the polish sinks really fast in the bottle, so after a
short while on its own, the polish looks like this:
Fortunately it’s really easy to mix the glitter with the base again. A
quick shake, rattle and roll and it’s all good again!
I almost forgot to mention that this polish smells really odd. I don’t
mind so much, but if you’re really sensitive to weird smells you might want to
avoid this one.

ReplyDeleteI have to agree with that <3
DeleteThis one looks amazing! I love the glittery-ness of it! :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you, I'm quite amazed myself :)
DeleteIt's so beautiful!! I bet it sparkles like crazy in the sun!!
ReplyDeleteIt does for sure :)
DeleteOoh that's a really pretty color! I don't know about the smell though. I'm pretty sensitive and can easily get smell headches, so I probably couldn't take it.

If you're sensitive about smells, then you have to give this one a miss, because it does smell. I don't mind so much, which is my luck I guess :)
DeleteThis is pretty! too bad about the smell... I'll probably pass on it... it also bugs me when I have to mix a nail polish before using it... usually mine don't need to be mixed unless they have been sitting for a long time
ReplyDeleteThe smell is bearable but odd indeed. I give all my polishes a good shake before I use them so this wasn't a big deal for me :)
