Hi Everyone!
February has passed and I've been working a lot of overtime recently. It is a busy time of year for me and I have still been painting my nails but I did take a little break. Then I kind of cut myself and while my nails looked nice, my hands looked pretty awful. So I didn't take any pictures of my manicures.
Last week I did my favourite mid-nail glitter look. Simple but I think it's a bit fancy in it's own way.
Anyway, today I want to discuss Angora Cardi by Essie.
Thoughts
This colour to me is like a dusty rose. It also somehow reminds me of the Pantone Colour of the Year Marsala. The colour applied beautifully. It was great in one coat but I added a second one anyway. Note that it did chip on the second day but I'm not sure if that's only due to the way I applied it? It was still lovely. I think it edges on a mature look, which I'm not sure if I was going for that or not.
I like the colour, and I like the application but I'm not sure if it's nice on me. I am considering selling this or giving it away. There are colours that I feel that way but rarely do I mention it in a review. It photographed really nicely though, I must say. When I looked at my fingers throughout the day, it didn't have that something that makes me want to keep it.
Breakdown
Basecoat: Essie First Base
Colour layer: Essie Angora Cardi (2 coats)
Topcoat: Essie Good to Go
I bought Angora Cardi at Shoppers Drug Mart while it was $7.99 which goes on sale quite often but usually does not include new collections.
