Etude BL501 & Orly Prisma Gloss Gold

I've finally found a true blue polish! I got this at 50% off at Etude House for only RM2.95. What a bargain!

Anyway, it was already opaque on the 1st coat. However, I applied a 2nd coat regardless. The consistency was great and no streaking. The bottle was tiny though. I didn't see any information about the weight on the label. I guess it is about half of a normal polish bottle.

First picture - it's without top coat as I didn't really like the colour on my nails. It looks blah.

Then I added Orly Prisma Gloss Gold for some oomph. It looks so much better. I can see stars on my nails now!

Elianto Glittery Nickel

I had nothing better to do but yet again bought another bottle of Elianto Nail Lacquer. This time it's the premium one that costs RM10 each. I chose Glittery Nickel.

It's more like a greyed purple but in the picture it looked more blue - maybe because it has more blue pigments in it. This is a holo micro glitter lacquer. It wasn't shiny at all without any top coat. I thought the effect would be much like OPI My Private Jet but to my disappointment, nope!

Sorry for the messy application. First picture was taken under warm lighting and second one was taken under flourescent light.

OPI Glitzerland & China Glaze Crackle Fault Line

COPI Glitzerland is from the OPI Swiss Collection. It's gold with lots of micro glitter.

Application was not a problem - but then again this colour is gold - it's hard to tell if it's streaky or not. Drying time was good and if you can see from the picture, it's perfect!

This is 2 coats.

As usual, I felt bored with the colour the next day. I added a layer of China Glaze Crackle Fault Line.

The ribbon is to hide the ugly cuticle.

OPI I Juggle... Men

This is the last one from OPI Femme De Cirque Collection. It's a top coat with micro glitter.

With natural lighting - it reflects blue but when I go under warm lighting - it reflects pink.

Anyhow, please excuse the yellowing nails. Application was good, drying time was also fast. This is 2 coats.

OPI In The Spotlight Pink

This is the 3rd polish from OPI Femme De Cirque Collection.

OPI In The Spotlight Pink in the bottle is of soft sheer pink. However, even with 3 layers of polish on my fingernails, I can't really see if it's even pink. It looks more like off-white towards pink.

Polish is very shiny and drying time is great.

Please don't mind the yellowish nails.

OPI So Many Clowns, So Little Time

Another one from OPI Femme De Cirque Collection.

Funny title though. Off white and so much sheerer compared to OPI Step Right Up. Slightly streaky application but not as bad as OPI Step Right Up. This is 3 coats. The colour is pale and slightly towards off white-nude-ish.

I kinda like this colour. I would probably get the normal sized bottle soon. Hopefully with the bigger brush, it'll give less streaky application.

Drying time was really fast. Love!

OPI Step Right Up

This is from the new OPI Femme De Cirque Collection.

Here, I present, OPI Step Right Up. It's a little hard to apply as it's extremely streaky. This is 4 coats! It has this soft off white-pinkish tone to it. I would've liked it more it's not that streaky!
