Canmake Crackle Lac Nail

Crackle! Canmake has 3 Crackle Lac Nail colours, blue, yellow and pink. I have tried Pink Crackle on my toes. It is matte and very easy to apply. This is handy to camouflage any chips or damaged. Pretty, like pink leopards? Forgive the dry cuticles. 

Colour : Bourjois 1 Seconde Nail Polish, Charcoal Grey, shade 28, 2 coats
Crackle : Canmake Crackle Lac Nail in pink, 1 coat
Top coat : OPI

Nails - CH Nail + Bourjois 1 Seconde

I am very inspired after reading Chloe's blog about her nail designs. I have decided to try out her Scotch Tape Manis technique. Recently I bought a few bottles of nail polish from a pushcart at Liang Court Level 1. It is not the usual brands, but "CH Nail", which I guess is from China. CH Nail is insanely pigmented and easy to apply, and the whole range are glittery colours.

This is a single coat of CH Nail, Colour 047, applied on OPI base coat.

I think I am going to leave it like this, a single coat without any top coat to test the durability. I like this shade. It's like brown-grey-blackish glitters, quite unique!

I think this shade may be rather harsh on my hands, hence I decided to do the Scotch Tape Manis with CH Nail Colour #042. I applied 2 coats of Bourjois #2602, a fine shimmery light pink and then did the Scotch Tape Manis with CH Nail Colour 042. I love how the combination looks.

 







Lovely! This is very suitable for work. I am wondering if I should apply top coat, maybe I should leave it as it is to test the durability as well. I love the different texture of these 2 polishes, CH nail is matte and glittery, but Bourjois is smooth and shiny.

The two products that I used for this set of nails: CH Nail Colour #042 and Bourjois 1 Seconde #2602


I am going to follow Chloe's blog for her easy and pretty DIY nails!

bourjois nail polish, 1 seconde and Ultra Shine

I bought my first bourjois nail polish, to be precise, TWO of it. I bought 2 different range to try the quality of the nail polish, 1 seconde with the fan like brush and the normal flat brush Laque Ultra Shine nail enamel.

1 second application per nail. 50 second drying time.
With fan effect brush. 1 nail, 1 coat, 1 second

What do I think of Bourjois 1 seconde?

I was quite sceptical about the fan-like brush as it seems to big for my last fingers. However, it was rather easy to use, and quick drying. This is probably the reason why it's called "1 seconde", it can dry in one second? It is relatively smooth and easy to apply. I applied 2 coats for a nice even color. It will probably takes me a few days to test its durability. I will definitely buy a few more colours from this range to try.

  

The revamped version of previous So Laque nail enamel with X2 vinyl for maximum shine! 

So Laque Ultra Shine nail enamel, a long-lasting pure nail lacquer!

The formula is enriched with:

- Twice as much vinyl and a blend of highly reflecting resins for nails with incredible shine.

- Fixing agents coating nails with a highly resistant film fthat holds for up to 7 days.

 

What do I think of Bourjois Ultra Shine nail enamel?

This has the normal flat brush, which is similar to OPI's. I bought a nude colour from this range, which takes about 2-3 coats to see the colour. It is quite easy to apply, but since nude, it can look abit streaky. It looks rather nice on nails since it is shiny even without applying topcoat. I'm not impressed by this range. It can last 3 days on my hands without topcoat. I feel that it is just a slightly above average nail polish. Maybe it is due to the color that I chose?
