Gina Tricot ~ Lemonade
Pastel yellow
with shimmer
Gina Tricot is a clothing store that also sells
accessories. I was in the shop to buy a pair of sunglasses. While I waited in
line to pay for my sunnies, I browsed through a box of polishes that the shop had
strategically placed next to the queue. I found this little pretty polish along
with two sisters and bought them along with what I originally came for.
The formula is good and I used two coats for full
opacity. This yellow actually behaves and doesn’t streak or drag!
When it was dry I applied a layer of foil glue, and
when that was nice and sticky I applied two colours of foil onto the glue: A
red and a blue.
I sealed the whole thing up with a layer of water
based topcoat.
This is my foil manicure:
I really like the randomness of the foil patterns, and
also the colour scheme.
I forgot to take photos of “Lemonade” on its own. I’m
sure y’all survive that :D
Number of
coats: 2
Drying time: Good

Overall impression: That’s a nice little basic polish, I love the shimmer in it

ReplyDeleteThank you so much :)
Delete..."strategically placed next to the queue"... how true it is! I work in a supermarket and I know exactly what it means :-)
ReplyDeleteI've never worked with foil, I must admit that the final result is very eye-catching! :-)
I love foil manicures but they really have a life of their own. Sometimes it just works and other times it doesn't work at all :D
