Summer Nail Challenge: Independence Day

4th July – Independence Day was the challenge for today and being British I had to actually double check the American flag!

Summer Nail Challenge: Euro 2012

I had to go ahead and google what a football pitch looks like! I have no incline to watch football, I only opted for the England flag as that's where I am from.

Swatch: W7 - Metallic Mars

This polish is a duochrome and as such is almost impossible to photograph, and so there are more photos than I would usually post;


Hopefully you can see that this slight duochrome, it goes between purple, black cherry, deep raspberry to a milk chocolate colour. Occasionally I noticed a hint of green and almost a yellow.

 

 

Opacity: This polish needed four coats to achieve coverage, the formulation is very water-like
Scent: I didn't find this particular polish offensive smelling, but be aware many people have commented on this before
Brush Type: Standard, verging on the wider side
How much in the bottle? 15ml
Price: £1.95
From: NailPolishDirect

Swatch: Barry M - Magnetic Burgundy

I used the star / explosion shape magnet for all but the ring finger. Nice effect but I need more practice!
