Review: Herôme W.I.C. Guatemala City

Hi!

I'm back... 
This time with a review of... 

Hier ben ik weer...
Deze keer met een review van...


Herôme Guatemala City 67




Herôme W.I.C. Guatemala City is a dusty pink shimmery polish which, unfortunately, didn't apply very well... The consistency was a bit watery, therefore I applied 3 coats and a layer of topcoat.

Herôme W.I.C. Guatemala City is een oudroze shimmer nagellak die helaas niet heel erg fijn lakte... De lak was een beetje waterig, waardoor ik 3 lagen en een laag topcoat heb moeten aanbrengen.





Guatemala City contains very small silver glitter parts, which makes this polish in real life looks a bit shimmery and metallic...

Guatemala City bevat hele kleine zilveren glitter deeltjes, die ervoor zorgen dat deze lak in het echt een beetje shimmery en metallic aandoet...



I do adore pink polishes, but I honestly must say that this colour (and finish) isn't my cup of tea...
But that's my personal opinion...

Ik hou erg van roze nagellak, maar ik moet eerlijk zeggen dat deze kleur (en finish) niet helemaal mijn ding zijn... Maar dat is mijn persoonlijke mening...


How I used it: 
As written above: first my basecoat, than 3 coats of Guatemala City and one coat of topcoat.

Hoe ik het gebruikte:
Zoals hierboven beschreven: eerst mijn basecoat, daarna 3 lagen Guatemala City en een laagje topcoat.

Review:

The consistency of this polish was a bit of a downer: the first layer was barely visible, the second layer was more opaque but the third layer (and that was a thick one!) eventually was enough to made the VNL disappear. Like I said before, this colour isn't really the type of pink I would love to wear, but that's my personal opinion.

Review:
De consistentie van deze lak was een beetje teleurstellend: de eerste laag was nauwelijks zichtbaar, de 2e laag was wat dekkender maar de derde laag (en dat was een dikke!) was uiteindelijk genoeg om de zichtbare nagellijn (witte nagelrand) te laten verdwijnen. Zoals ik al eerder schreef, deze kleur is niet helemaal de kleur roze die ik graag draag, maar dat is mijn persoonlijke mening.

Herôme W.I.C. Guatemala City 67 is available at OnlineMakeup.nl for €7,50 (click here for a direct link to this polish). Unfortunately they do not ship internationally.

Kiko 336 - Royal Blue


Hi!

I've visited a Kiko shop in southern France on our holiday, a couple of weeks ago.
I've bought 6 really pretty polishes, and Kiko 336 is one of them...

Let's take a closer look...



Kiko 336 is a bright in-your-face royal blue which applied very easy. 2 coats give me perfect coverage.


Well... I got a lot of compliments, because I happen to have a jacket in this exact same colour and it matched perfectly together! ♥

I'm actually more of a pink girl, but while I was wearing this polish I could not stop staring at my own nails... ALL THE TIME! :)

I'm glad I have 5 more polishes to test and swatch :)

Kiko is available in Europe, but unfortunately not in the country I live in (NL) :( and are often sold for €2,50 per bottle.

Do you have Kiko polishes in your stash? Do you like this colour as much as I do?

Thanks for reading!
