China Glaze Swatches

It's been a long week already. But it's only going to get longer. So, to make the time pass in a much happier way, I've done some swatching. HUZZAH!

These are four polishes from the recently arrived box o' prettiness.
This is China Glaze Oxygen - one coat of China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat, three of Oxygen, and one of Seche Vite. I really like the final colour of this polish. I found that the coats I used to get to this colour were perhaps a bit thicker than I would usually do. But I think it could easily be toned back and used as a nice colour to wear when you don't want too much colour. 

This is China Glaze Sea Spray - one coat of Strong Adhesion Base Coat, two of Sea Spray, and one of Seche Vite. I really loved this colour from start to finish. It's a cross between blue, green, and grey. But the thing that really makes it great is the silver shimmer through the polish that you probably can't see in this photo. 

This is China Glaze For Audrey - one coat of Strong Adhesion Base Coat, three of For Audrey, and one of Seche Vite. I actually wore this colour for two days after doing this swatch. And I loved it. It's easy to see why it's a favourite. I used thin coats, and that's probably why I had to do three coats to get the finish I wanted. Easily one of the prettiest colours in my collection so far.

This is China Glaze Cowgirl Up - one coat of Strong Adhesion Base Coat, two of Cowgirl Up, and one of Seche Vite. This is a beautiful satiny burgundy. It goes on smoothly. It has a gorgeous shimmer. I love it. It's that simple. LOVE. I'll be wearing this one a lot I'm thinking.

All of these colours are great. But even among great colours, there are always favourites. 

All of these colours were bought from www.crushcosmetics.com.au. They have free shipping for orders over $65, which is easy to do when you see the range of colours.
