Arabian by piCture pOlish

Hi guys! Here I am with another stunning polish. As some of you know, I love red nail polish and besides Pirates of Penzance from CBL as a favourite I constantly try to expand my collection.

When this polish came out last year I thought, yes! my prayers have been heard! For some reason I never ordered it... I know... Crazy chick here... :)

Finally I bought it in March!
Actually I have to admit when I first had it in my hand, I thought I don't like it. It has a different kind of glitter in in then other PP's, it has gold, red and a blue-ish micro glitter in it. What... In a red polish... :(
As I'm slowly working trough the mountain of polishes from last month, I tried this one the other night, and was blown away. That blue glitter does not transfers to the nail, so I just couldn't stop repeat: "Wow!"

Let's see this pretty in action. This is Arabian by piCture pOlish

As I'm trying more and more of my polishes, I kind of start to know which brand I like, and these little bottles are really growing to me very fast!

Here is a bottle shot, hopefully you can see all the glitter madness in it!

I love the brush! It's not the widest, but it's not the smallest either. It's perfect width for any nail type, and it's also long! Very, very easy to work with!!

The first coat went on like a dream! It's not patchy, not streaky, self levels itself and I would say depending on the application, this could be a one coater!!! :)

It is a stunning bright red with an added extra! The second coat did not disappoint, and deepened the colour a little bit.

Originally I wanted to do a red nail with black stamping, so got my gear out, and the fun began!

The first problem I had was to choose the image I will stamp on. If you have a lot of stamping plates as I do, you know what I'm talking about! :)

The second issue I had was the cotton pads... I run out of my trusted one, and opened the back up, which was another brand and it's cheaper. When you go trough a lot of these, well you may look for cheaper alternatives. Let me tell you, don't do that! Ever! It says 100% Cotton, but feels like plastic. It's slippery, doesn't absorbs, and leaves all the lints everywhere. It's the crappiest crap I ever came across... :(

Anyway, I choose a plate and started stamping...

After the second nail I understood why people are doing test stamping before they go to the actual nail. Well, I'm lazy, and it was already 10pm, so messed up a few fingers and was growling about my stupidity.

I forgot to make a picture before cleaning, but here is the end result:

Originally I wanted to mattify this mani, but it was too late in the night...

Here is a macro of the finished mani (my inner perfectionist is screaming now as it is not flawless)

All in all I love Arabian, it's a gorgeous true red sparkling polish! I'm very happy to have it in my collection. With the stamping I'm not that happy, so might change it tonight...

I hope you liked this post, and thank you for stopping by! Xxx

Gala by piCture pOlish from the 2016 Spring collection

Good morning all! It's been a while since I posted, but we all know, how it is when life takes a bit over...
I'm back, and have a lot of plans and ideas which I want to share with you here! :)

Today I have Gala from piCture pOlish. This pretty is from their 2016 Spring collection, and it's a beautiful darker purple shade with just a touch of blue.

It has tiny shredded slightly holographic silver micro glitter, what is a statement for piCture pOlish by now, and I do love it very much!

Here is a bottle shot:

The first coat went on very easily, the polish is just the right consistency, doesn't run on the sides and this colour was nearly opaque in one coat.
I definitely have to be more careful with the application, as on few nails I had some pulling and bald spots, but being a perfectionist, I might have overworked it.

The second coat was just as perfect as a dream, covering any imperfections and it deepened the colour quiet a bit.

I have wide nail beds and sometimes it's difficult for me to cover one nail with just one dip, but not with this brand I absolutely love the medium brush! It's perfect for smaller nails, and wider nails as well!

Here is a macro shot showing the stunning glitters:

All in all, I enjoyed this polish very much, love the colour, it's jam packed with the micro glitters and it's very easy to work with.

In the last month I doubled my piCture pOlish collection, and now I'm very eager to try the other new ones I got.

I definitely will share some pictures with you! :)

I hope you enjoyed this post, and thank you for stopping by! Xxx
