Catrice: C04 Plum Beach
Pink textured with glitter

The formula of this rather old polish from the collection of Luxury Lacquers is quite good and the polish covered in two coats. The drying time was average.

I placed floral water decals on my nails and topped it all with topcoat.

Here’s the final result in the sun:

I think this is really pretty.

And this is “Plum Beach” alone, two coats and no topcoat.

I’m not quite sure that I’ll keep this polish. The colour is a little bit too “weak” for my likings.


Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Average
Finish: Textured with glitter
Overall impression: Good formula with average drying time. Pretty glitter, but the polish doesn’t wow me.
Buy again: No

Dark teal linear holo

This polish is really old, but the formula is still good. I used two easy coats for my manicure and the drying time was good.

I stamped on it with metallic pink. The design is from Moyou London’s stamping plate “Deco Collection-03”. I stamped with Models Own’s “Chrome Cerise”. I dapped a bit of glitter by the base of the nails with Icing’s “Lemme See Your Peacock”.  

Here’s the result in the sun. The sun made the rainbows shine so brightly.

This is the same thing under a lamp to show the pretty colour and the glitter.
