Pahlish: Down the Chimney
A charcoal jelly with a mix of pink and orange flakes with a hint of violet aurora


"Down The Chimney" is part of the group custom "For The Love Of Polish" for December 2020. December's  theme was "Winter Wonderland".


The formula is okay but sheer, like these types of flakies often are. I think it's to make the flakies shine to the max. I used three coats for full opacity. The drying time is good.

I painted two stripes down each nail with a cherise stamping polish from KADS. I placed a white flower by the base of each nail and on top of the stripes.


Here's the final result including a layer of topcoat. The photo is taken in daylight, no sun.

This is "Down The Chimney" alone, three coats and a layer of topcoat.

Here are the things I used today.




I must admit that grey isn't my favourite colour nail polish. I do quite like the flakies though.

Polished For Days: Oh Deer

Quixotic Polish: Dancing Sugar Plums

 

Number of coats: 3
Drying time: Good

Overall impression: Sheer formula, pretty flakies, not my favourite colour

Moyra: #942 Henriette
Red toned purple shimmer

The formula of "Henriette" is really good and the polish is super easy to apply. I used two easy coats for my manicure today and the drying time was god.

I made it into a dotticure. I used a plain white and a cherise. The lighter shade is just the cherise and the white mixed together.

Here is the final result under a lamp.
