China Glaze "Optical Illusion"

Hi everyone and happy Wednesday!  The weather this week has been fantastic and I am so excited for this weekend!  Today's nail polish is China Glaze's "Optical Illusion."

"Optical Illusion" is a fantastic turquoise and silver holographic glitter polish!  It looks stunning in the bottle and on the nail!  Formula wise "Optical Illusion" was great and it applied nicely in even coats.  Despite being a glittery polish, after two coats it was almost opaque and had just a hint of the visible nail underneath.  As for chipping, I was able to wear "Optical Illusion" for three days before it began to flake off.  However since "Optical Illusion" is a glitter I couldn't resist testing it out with another polish.  Here's how it turned out:

I selected Misslyn's "Heaven On Earth" as the base color for this combination.  It turned out so well and makes for a great look.  (One which I will definitely wear a lot this Summer!)  If you want to know more about Misslyn's "Heaven On Earth" check out my post from earlier this month!

Overall I am very impressed by China Glaze's "Optical Illusion."  Everything about this nail polish is perfect and I will wear it again and again.

Misslyn "Heaven On Earth"

Hi all!  I can't believe that February is almost over and that 2017 seems to be flying by!  It has been almost two years since I went to France on vacation (even though it seems like only yesterday!) so I decided to pull out one of the European polishes I got while there.  So without further ado, today's nail polish is Misslyn's "Heaven On Earth."

"Heaven In Earth" is a gorgeous light sky blue nail polish that is perfect for the UNC Tarheel fans out there!  Formula wise this polish was good but just the tiniest bit watery.  However it was still easy to apply.  After two coats, "Heaven On Earth" was almost entirely opaque sans a streak mark here or there that left my nails looking a little patchy..  In terms of chipping, I was able to wear "Heaven On Earth" for four days before there were a couple of small chips.

Overall I am very pleased with Misslyn's "Heaven On Earth."  This nail polish is good in every aspect and I wish I had bought more polishes by this brand.  I suppose I'll just have to keep wearing this one until I can get back to France and buy some more!

Here's a #tbt (even though it isn't Thursday) to remember my trip to France by:

Notre Dame de Rouen in Rouen, France.  Rouen is where I purchased this bottle of nail polish!
