CND Night Factory - Urban Oasis and Teal Sparkle



Today I had to do a makeup job for a friend who was attending a wedding and I wanted my nails to look special, so I chose CND's new "The Look" Night Factory Duo for Fall/Winter '10.

The set consists of a dark teal creme polish, Urban Oasis, and a sparkly teal microglitter "effects" polish, aptly named Teal Sparkle.


Check out the swatches of this amazing duo after the jump!

Essie - Angora Cardi

Since the nails on my poor left hand are still recovering I thought I'd introduce my right hand, which hopefully will rarely been seen in the future :P 

Today I wore Essie Angora Cardi, and it is love! This colour is a mixture of red, brown and purple - a kind of mauve I guess. We are at the end of winter here in Australia and this nail polish is such an appropriate colour for the season! I found it to be really flattering on me as well.

Application was a little iffy. First coat was streaky but it evened out pretty well on the second coat. I found it to be a bit thick and as such I was worried about dry time, but with a good coat of Seche Vite, dry time was quite good :)
