Navy blue texture with shimmer
Let’s face it: I’m just not an Essie girl. I don’t find the quality
fantastic, and I must admit that I think they’re highly overpriced here. Once
in a while I see one that I like, and then I buy it off EvilBay. That’s what
happened with Lots of Lux.
The formula is good and the polish was almost opaque after the first
coat. I applied a second one, and then I was fully satisfied with it. Drying
time between the coats is really good too!
Here’s what two coats look like:
I sponged on a bit of pink glitter: Kiko #438 Fascinating Burgundy from
the Digital collection. And when that was dry I applied a layer of Ellagee’s
holo topcoat Rainbow Syrup. And that helped – here’s what my mani ended up
looking like:
These are sunshine pictures:
I love both the pink glitter and the rainbow effect.
I ended up applying an additional layer of topcoat, because Lots of Lux
is seriously textured!
Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Fast

Overall impression: Great colour, great quality. The texture is a little too much though!

Such a fantastic combination!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much <3
DeleteThis combo looks interesting. I was thinking about the collection, finally I don't have any of them, Belugaria has frigtened me off ;P But Lots of Lux seems the prettiest of this collection.
ReplyDeleteBelugaria looks awful, in my opinion :D I would never even consider buying it!
DeleteLots of Lux is definitely the gem in this collection :)
I like the blue shade - and the finished result is interesting to look at, I bet it was kind of distracting!
ReplyDeleteYes! It was seriously distracting! :)
DeleteThese polishes are very pretty by themself but together they look super cool!
ReplyDeleteThank you, I like combining polishes this way :)
DeleteIt looks nice and I like the finish. The final result looks fab :-D
ReplyDeleteI've never tried Essie and don't own any. Not seen any that appeal to me!
I feel exactly that way about Essie too, it's weird, isn't it! :D
DeleteNice layering! I have Lots Of Lux too and I love it ♥
ReplyDeleteThank you. Lots of Lux is indeed a great polish! :)
