China Glaze Stone Cold

Today I have China Glaze Stone Cold for you guys. I bought this before I bought the ManGlaze polishes.


Stone cold is a really nice asphalt gray with tons of toned down sparkle as a matte. When you apply a top coat the polish comes alive (as most mattes do) and just glistens in the sun. Unfortunately, none of my top coat photos turned out so I only have the matte version of this polish to show you today.



If you like China Glaze Stone Cold, click my blog sale link in the tabs at the top of the screen. I'm selling it for $4.00 :)

Sunday

Still no USB cord in sight. I left one at my mother's house. I have at least two others around here, I just can't find them!

I just made my own macro light box. I used a cardboard box and tissue paper. It cost me $1, let's hope it does the job. I'll test it tonight!

While I was buying my tissue paper I also purchased my first matte nail polish. I'm not a fan of matte, but I figured I would give it a try because I do like the matte+glitter look. I bought LA Colors Orange Matte...I like it, a lot!

China Glaze Blue Sparrow

China Glaze Blue Sparrow is the first neon I've purchased and I'm really pleased with how it looks. Blue Sparrow dries slightly matte like most neons do. This is four coats. It definitely takes a lot to get this polish to a nice opaque shade but the work and patience is worth it because the color is awesome. The first two colors are before a top coat. The last two pictures are after adding a Sally Hansen top coat. I do not like matte shades, I'm a glossy, shiny type of gal and I love how this looks after a top coat! It's not an eye-popping burn-your-retinas neon but it's definitely bright and fun!
