Yesterday I went to the mall with my sister and I decided to check out Claire's to see if I could find their mood polishes. They were 5 dollars each but they were having a buy one get on half off deal. The two I got both dry matte. I don't know about the other one I got but this one applied horribly. It was really thick and streaky. If you went over the same spot twice it would remove all the polish on that side. In the end it all dried smoothly but due to the uneven application I needed 3 coats. I wasn't sure if top coat would interfere with the colour changing so I didn't apply topcoat to my left hand, only my right. The topcoat didn't effect it at all so if you're not a fan of neon mattes it will still change with top coat. The weather here is so hot I ended up having to take a cup full of ice water outside with me to get pictures of the colour change. I tried taking pictures indoors but they all turned out bad and didn't show much colour change. I took these pictures with Orly Ridgefiller because I found the Claires bottle awkward to hold and get good pictures. The first picture is what it looks like hot (confident), the second is with cold tips and the third is what it looks like cold (peaceful).
The change isn't as drastic as I thought it would be, but its still noticeable. For some reason the change shows up more on my right hand, the one I don't take a picture of! I think I might do some Konad/Nail Art to this one tomorrow....
Have you tried any of these Claire's Mood Polishes?
Peace and Love,
Serena
Oh, yay! You're a new blogger too! I like the color of this polish and think it would look pretty neat w/ some Konad/nail art over it. :-)
ReplyDeleteI've found this particular one doesn't change as much as some of the others, very little contrast between hot and cold colors unlike the pink/purple one or the grey/peach.
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to try these polishes!
ReplyDeleteEven though the colour change on this one isn't too drastic, it's still a really nice colour. :)
