NOTD - Admire by China Glaze

Happy New Year everyone!  Here's hoping 2012 is a great year!

I was going to wait until New Years Day to apply my first nail polish of the year but as I chipped the polish I was wearing on New Years Eve I thought I would get a head start.

My first polish is Admire by China Glaze.  Its a beautiful metallic pinky purple colour.  The polish itself applies really easily but as its metallic it is very difficult to apply without it going streaky.  In fact I ruined two nails as the streaks were really obvious and they had to be re-done.  As you can see the colour is really stunning, its the kind of colour that would look great with a tan (no chance on me then!!).



Sorry for the bad lighting, I didn't get a chance to take a photo in the daylight today.

This is undercoat  of Boots No. 7 Clear, two coats of Admire and top coat of Sally Hansen Insta-Dri.  So far after 24 hours it is showing small signs of wear on the ends of my nails but nothing noticeable.

I would give this an A+ for colour and it would be an A for ease of appliance but because of how streaky the colour goes I would only give it a B.

The next colour I will be wearing is is All Fired Up by Revlon.  Until then, take care
