Color Club ~ Back To The Grind

Color Club ~ Back To The Grind

Copper linear holo with holographic glitter

“Back To The Grind” is from Color Club’s “Halo Crush” collection from Summer 2018. There are six polishes in the collection. I bought 5 of them and left the gold one out, since I hardly ever wear golden polishes. I’m going to show you the ones I’ve got over the next days, and I’m going to link to them all by the end of each post as I publish them. I started this little journey of Halo Crushes yesterday.

The second one on the nails is “Back To The Grind”. Just like with “Break It Up” I wasn’t quite sure whether to buy this or not, but I’ve found myself attracted to coppery polishes lately, not all of them but if they look “clear”. There weren’t many swatches around when I ordered these but this one looked really pretty on the bottle picture I saw so I decided to give in and buy it. And I was not disappointed. “Back To The Grind” is super pretty!

The formula is really good and the coverage too. I used two coats for full opacity. The drying time is really good. The polish dries up a little bit bumpy because of all the glitter so hurrah for topcoat if you want your nails completely smooth. I don’t mind bumpiness at all but I always use topcoat anyway.

I stamped V-shaped design on it and made some dots freehand. The V-design is from the stamping plate “French BP-X20” and I stamped with a stamping polish from BornPrettyStore called “Wine Red”. I also made the dots with that polish.

Here’s my design, including a layer of topcoat. It’s a sunshine photo.

This picture is from the lightbox. I am amazed over how huge a difference the microglitter makes!

And this is “Back To The Grind” on its own; two coats and no topcoat yet.

Here is the stuff I used today.

I am definitely not disappointed so far! This is a gem of a polish. I like the quality, the formula, the coverage and the drying time. And I fell a little bit in love with this colour, that isn’t 100 % mine. :D
