NOTD: China Glaze Strawberry Fields


China Glaze Strawberry Fields from their Summer Days (2009) collection. This one is a real beauty if you love pinks! It is a glass flecked jelly nail polish that needs two coats for full opacity.
I love how it's not one of your usual pinks, as it has got gold flakies that come to life on sun.
Love it!
Now all I need to do is get my hands on the oh-so-gorgeous Orange Marmalade from the same collection.

Comparison: CG Blue Sparrow (neon) & Essence Underwater & Essence Bonnie


The last time I wanted to have blue nails I have discovered I have three blues and I wanted to compare them.
So here they are.

From left to right:
China Glaze Blue Sparrow (neon)
Essence Underwater
Essence Bonnie

All of them are two coaters except for Bonnie which is an one coater.
The CG Blue Sparrow is really watery (you have to be careful),  Essence Bonnie is very dense (but just enough) while Essence Underwater is something in between. As you can see they have really different textures as well :) CG has got big glitter in it (light blue) and dries in an almost satin finish, Underwater has got small shimmer in it and it dries glossy, while Bonnie has got no glitter or shimmer and it dries glossy as well. 

In all of the pictures there is no top coat used.


Which one is your favourite?

Two days ago I wanted to have blue nails but couldn't decide between Bonnie and Blue Sparrow. So I paired them. I love how it looks!

Top Layer: China Glaze Blue Sparrow Neon (1 coat)

Yaaaay! :D
The kronicles of a konader had a giveaway and I won :D Christy sent me the package almost a month ago (on the 23 Dec) and I got it today (22 Jan). Wooah. She was more than kind to ask me if I had any food wishes. And I had :D I wanted to try out Sno balls (saw them in a zombie movie) and Twizzlers (saw on how it's made).


I was very excited when my sister called and said I got a huge package (and heavy).

Sugar!!!
How a Sno ball looks (yummy yummy). For all those who don't know what a Sno ball is: it's a pink marshmallow and shredded coconut covered chocolate cake, filled with crème.
