Essence: Creating Memories and Claire's: Velour

Purple crème and purple glitter

Today is purple and full of glitter.

The base is from Essence. It's a beautiful plain purple crème. It's got a great formula and covers really well. I think I could have got away with one single coat. I used two coats though, and the drying time is good.

I added one coat of "Velour", a purple glitter in various sizes. It spreads out evenly and effortlessly.

Then I applied a sticker to each nail and topped it all with topcoat.

Here's the end result:

Essence: Creating Memories topped with Claire's: Velour

And here's two coats of Essence's "Creating Memories", topped with one coat of Claire's glitter "Velour".

Essence: Creating Memories topped with Claire's: Velour

This is Essence's "Creating Memories" alone; two coats and no topcoat.

Essence: Creating Memories

Here are the two polishes I used today.

Claire's: Velour and Essence: Creating Memories

I love both of these polishes and I really like the end result as well.

Number of coats: 2 of the crème, 1 of the glitter
Drying time: Good

Finish: Crème / glitter
Overall impression: Great polishes both of them
