Hello my lovelies! How are you all doing today? I'm determined to get up to date with the posting so I'm gonna try to do more posts this week. I have some older manicures from these past weeks to show you so that's why my nails will be shorter in these posts. I'll start with one I wore during my first exam. It's more of a fall color but also a classic and classics can be worn all year round.

I chose to wear this because I wanted something a little less crazy to wear on the day of the exam. I'm so not used to wearing these type of colors and I couldn't wait to take it off and paint something fun instead. Don't get me wrong, this is one of my favorite colors but it has become redundant on my nails.

As most H&M polishes do, this had a really thick formula. I knew about that and dropped about 3 drops of Seche Restore in it before using it. Unfortunately it was not enough and the first coat went on too thick. I then added another 3 drops and painted the second coat which was perfect. By then there were already bubbles in the first coat and there was nothing I could do about it. It dried fast to the touch but was still dentable for a long time so I had to use a fast drying top coat in the end. The photos are without top coat and you can see the shiny crelly finish of this polish.

I really like this shade because it looks better on me than China Glaze Velvet Bow, which looks a little too brown. Durability was not the best but it would have probably been better if the first coat wasn't so thick.

So what do you think of this polish? Are you a fan of these classic shades? I admit I would have liked it better if it was fall or winter.
This is so pretty! I have Velvet Bow and love that one too!
ReplyDeleteI love it too. Just wish it looked a bit more red on my skin tone.
DeleteThis is really pretty! I know what you mean about wanting to take it off though. I love shades like this, but sometimes I just want something more lively on my nails!
ReplyDeleteThank you Marisa. I'm glad you understand my need for color!
DeleteThis looks fab on you Mihaela, but I agree more of a winter colour. I'm needing bright as possible with our gloomy weather!
ReplyDeleteThat's true! We've been having cold and rain for the last week or so. Today is the first sunny day in a while.
