I usually don´t do this kind of swatch posts or I don´t show you my nails without nail art. This time I made a little exception because I LOVE the result even without any extra stripes, dots, flowers etc 😛
When neons first came I was like…. no way I will start wearing them and now I absolutely love neon nail polish (pink this time :P)
For this swatch I used 2 coats of China Glaze nail polish in Pink Voltage. It is pretty sheer and so to achieve opaque result you will need 3 or more coats of polish. The trying time was reasonable and the application was easy. As you can see this polish has quite matte finish.
To get extra bright result on my nails I frist applied one coat on OPI Alpine Snow and then added 3 coats of CG Pink Voltage. Actually two coats would have been enough, but I just wanted perfection 😛 And I also added one coat on Poshe Top Coat
And here is the result

Tavaliselt ma selliseid swatchi postitusi ei tee (või noh senini pole väga teinud) ja oma küüsi ilma lisa kaunistusteta ei näita. Selle laki puhul tegin ma aga väikese erandi kuna see meeldis mulle oma küünel ka lihtsalt niisama – ilma igasuguste lisa täppide, triipude, lillede jm selliseta. Kui alguses neoonid moodi tulid olin ma tõsiselt seisukohal, et mina neid kandma/kasutama ei hakka ja nüüd ma siis kasutan ja seda neoon roosat ma ARMASTAN 😛
Teise foto jaoks (swatchid) kasutasin ma kahte kihti lakki. China Glaze Pink Voltage on üsna läbipaistev nii, et hea katvuse saamiseks on vaja kasutada vähemalt 3 või enamat laki kihti. Peale kanda oli lakki lihtne ja kuivab ta ka üsna normaalse ajaga. Ilma pealislakita jääb Pink Voltage küüntele matt.
Enda küüntele kandsin ma kõigepealt 1 kihi OPI Alpine Snow´d, kuna tahtsid eriti erksat tulemust. Sellele järgnes 3 kihti Pink Voltage´t (aga oleks ka kahest piisanud, mul lihtsalt tuli mingi perfektsionismi hetk :P) ja lõpuks ka kihi Poshe kiiresti kuivavat pealislakki.
Selle China Glaze Pink Voltage minilaki ostsin ma Tartu Beauty Pro kauplusest.
