Color Club - Antiquated

Hello there! Gosh, it's been a while, hasn't it? I've had a really busy month and as a result, not much time to blog. I'm trying to get back on track now though and this is a great polish to do it with.

Antiquated is a really lovely gold foil, definitely cool toned. It almost looks like a rose gold on my nails. I really love a good gold foil and this is a great one! The finish is almost mirror like, not streaky, and it goes on really nicely in 2 coats without being patchy or sheer. This went through a fairly heavy wear test as I wore it on a vacation to Las Vegas during which I did a decent amount of heavy lifting and carrying and it made it through with only a handful of small chips. Foils always seem to wear really well, so I like to put them on when I know it'll be a little while before I can change my polish. I have a few more foils from this collection and I'm looking forward to trying them.

China Glaze - Midnight Kiss

Hi everyone! Sorry I'm late. It's been a busy but good week. This polish gave me enough sparkle to help me through. :) Midnight Kiss is a really fun, simple color, a good solid champagne gold foil. I don't think it's terribly unique but it's a really nice color anyways. This was 2 nice, smooth coats. Foils are one of my favorite finishes but they can be unforgiving if you have ridged nails. I always buff mine a little once a week or so to keep my ridges down, but if you don't want to buff you can also wear a ridgefiller. This is from last year's holiday collection, just like Peace on Earth. I think holiday collections are my favorite since they usually have a lot of green and gold and I love both those colors. :) My nails are finally growing back to a point where I'm okay with them. I can't stand seeing my nails shorter than my fingertips so this is juuuust enough to make me happy. I might keep them slightly shorter this time around, but we'll see.
