Hey everyone! How about a quick post before I go jogging? Yeah, I have an exam tomorrow and I have been locked up in my room for three days now, I need to move my ass! :) Actually, I think I went for a jog two days ago ... I always lose sense of time when studying.
Total Eclipse by Rimmel is my first (and probably last) textured polish. I am not a fan of this trend, nope. I think it looks like your manicure got smudged real bad. :) But that's just me! And I would not have purchased Total Eclipse but after I saw some swatches of it with TC on, I needed it, the green glitter looks amazing.
First with top coat:
See how it looks like lava that is already kind of cooled off but the fire under the crust is still alive and ... well, GREEN? Awesomeness! I love it. And it is really sparkly in real life.
Without top coat it also looks really nice, but glitter is of course not so obvious.
My camera did not capture the duochrome effect the glitter actually has, because on the nails it is quite subtle, not as obvious as it is in the bottle. But it is there if you move your fingers the right way.
This was two coats, I think, again great brush by Rimmel. As I said before, textured polish is not really my thing, but Total Eclipse is absolutely gorgeous nail polish, so I do not mind the finish much. I might buy another textured one, but it will have to be at least as awesome as Total Eclipse is. :)
How do you feel about textured polish? Do you like it or hate it? You think it is just a phase like crackles were or will it stick like matte polish did?
Thank you for reading and commenting!
I'm not keen on textured polish either, but I can see how this one was so tempting! I'd have to add like eight layers of top coat so it's super smooth, lol!
ReplyDeleteHehehe, that was my first thought, actually! To layer TC all over it until it would get smooth. But I ran out of patience for it. ;)
Deletelep lakec (barva), čeprav me te teksture motijo.
ReplyDeleteBarva je čudovita, da. Tekstura pa tudi meni ni najbolj ljuba. Kot zelo zelo oster glitter. :/
DeleteActually I own a few textured polishes but I've got to say that none is as beautiful as this one! I really think I have to keep my eyes open for it during my next visit to the drug store :D It's totally my cup of tea!
ReplyDeleteThank you for showing this one! (and tempting me to buy yet another polish ;)
Oh, you are very welcome. ;) Yeah, it is a stunning polish, gorgeous enough to convince me to buy it, in spite of its finish. I do recommend it!
Deletemeni je savršen, volim teksturce a on je baš poseban!
ReplyDeleteIma jih više u Space Dust kolekciji, ali mi je samo Total Eclipse toliko poseban, da sam odlučila ga kupiti. Ako voliš teksturce, pogledaj i za druge boje. :)
DeleteOoo, všeč! Barva, tekstura ... jp, na tele sem čist "padla" - upam, da ne padejo v pozabo tako kot crackli, ki so mi zdej obupni, takrat so mi bli pa ful všeč, hehe.
ReplyDeleteJaz imam občutek, da bo podobno kot s crackli, je pa res, da tudi v crackle nisem tako padla kot nekatere blogerke. :D kaj pa vem, te teksture ... raje imam igro barv. :D
Deletehow can you not love sands ;D
ReplyDeleteHehehe, easily! ;) I'll wait for a new trend, maybe I'll dig that one. ;)
DeleteVšečen, zelo. Jaz pa obožujem teksturne lake, hehe. :)
ReplyDeleteSaj so kar popularni, vsaj tak filing dobivam z blogsfere. Jaz sem pa vsaj denar prišparala na novih kolekcijah v letu 2013, ko je bilo vse sand. :D Saj me bo spet slej ko prej zagrabilo, sploh če se bo matte vrnil.
DeleteJa volim hrapavce :D Ovog sam preskocila, ali mi ljepse izgleda hrapav nego s top coatom
