The one with China Glaze Style Wars, Grape Pop and Kinetic Candy!

More China Glaze! Today I just have three random polishes from my collection. My collection of China Glaze is pretty extensive - it's one of the brands I purchase a lot. Plus, it's pretty much readily available to me because I have a Sally's within a half an hour from me. I like the variety of colors, altho I don't own a lot of pink. That's fine with me, tho haha For the most part, the formula on China Glaze polishes is great. But there are always exceptions :)

The beautiful orangeness of Style Wars is up first! Isn't it just the most stunning shade of orange? The finish is definitely jelly, but it's thicker than a normal jelly. I used three coats, and I can only see very slight VNL, which is okay by me. As long as it's not glaring.

You like purple, you say? Well I've got the perfect one for you - Grape Pop! It's creamy and smooth. Two coats to perfection....but it's a pain to photograph! Most purples are hard to photograph, actually. They tend to lean too blue. I finally found the right lighting. Sort of. I think it's still a little too blue. But it's super close :)

And here's one of the thicker polishes - Kinetic Candy. I love this color, the minty blue of it, but the formula is just thick. Not really goopy, but hard to manipulate. I used two coats and tried to smooth this puppy out, but it just looks thick on the nail. You can just tell...

Do you guys have a favorite China Glaze?


**DISCLAIMER**  I was not paid for this review by anyone. I either purchased these polishes myself or were given gifts as friends because I could not find the particular shade I wanted myself.  I am not a professional nail tech, nor do I want to be. I'm just someone who enjoys polishing my own nails :)

  3. They're gorgeous! Thankfully I don't have a Sally's near me, I'd be bankrupt. My favourite China Glaze polishes are Outta Bounds & For Audrey.
