Bourjois 1 seconde - 17 Gris Nightomic :)

Hello! Another short post by UniqaPoly ;) This time I'm gonna write about my another nail polish by Bourjois 1 seconde, shade 17 Gris Nightomic. :)

I love this one! I can only say I am totally in love with this one and especially in the combination with a black crackle nail polish on top!

I mentioned this nail polish here in my NEW in April post, along with another shade that I already reviewed - Bourjois 1 seconde shade 03 :)

I also made a manicure with the black crackle on top, to show you how cool it can look! If you can get this shade anywhere still - I really recommend it!

So the packaging - classic 1 seconde nail polish, just like the one I reviewed last month, shade 03 :) Plastic cap, elongated and elegantly looking. Glass bottle, but thick and a little heavy. Brush is thick also, with thick and strong bristles. To me this one is really easy to use and I love this kind of type of brushes.

Price is here in Slovenia around 8 euros, but I got this one on a bonus -50%, so around 4euros. I got it in DM store, so probably Muller has it cheaper. I'm not sure. There was also a slight change in the colours that are available in Slovenia right now, I saw there were more azure, aquamarine and green colours, also more yellow tones and orange ones... classical summer colours :)

So here's how it looks! It's a fantastic shimmery silvery colour! I don't have a similar shade, so I am especially satisfied with this one! It may look matte on some photos, but the finish is glossy. Application is easy, I used two coats to get it a bit darker, but this one will never look like a dark grey shimmery nail polish, it will always stay a bit more light silvery, even with more coats.

And here's my experiment :) First I applied 17 Gris nightomic, than the black crackle nail polis by Depend and on top. I already wrote about this crackle nail polish here: Depend Cracked Effect nail polish :)

With the top coat this look lasts at leats 3 days on my nails, and I am satisfied with the timing, because usually this just goes off like in a second! I mean it, usually I don't have it on even for two hours and it starts to chip! No matter how much money I pay or what brand I take... so that's why I'm not so much  into nail manicure and nail art. Personally, from my experience I would just spend a lot of time on one manicure that would need a lot of correcting anyway..

And some more photos:

So how do you like the manicure? Would you wear it?

Bourjois 1 seconde - 03 nail polish :)

Hey there! How are you? Today I have a super quick post for you :) This is one of the nail polishes I got in April, you can check here which ones are yet to come and be photographed - New in April :) It's from Bourjois, their famous 1 seconde nail polishes. This one is in shade 03, there is no other name written anywhere.

The bottle is elegantly shaped, with long cap on top, so it's shaped in a triangle. The cap is plastic, the bottle is very good - glass, but hard. Still, I would not recommend letting it fall ;) The brush is quite large, which I like, it enables you to cover your nails easier. Many complain it's harder, but to me with these I have less problems than with ordinary tiny brushes. It's very compact and thick with bristles, I only need to make two swipes and my nails are covered.

Here I used this one 1 seconde 03 as base, than Essence nail art stickers in Bad girl, than on top DEpend Multipolish :) Easy and simple. The colour is simple, rosy-nude, very everyday like, but sometimes you just need a nail polish that fits everything. :) Lasting - for about 3 days, than it started to crumble off. Coverage - one coat is enough, it's really nicely pigmented and spreads easily.

And some swatches :)

I like to wear this when I don't have time to make anything more complicated or use a colour that needs more time and leyers to look good. An everyday goldie ;)

Thanks for reading and take care!

Review & Swatches: Depend Cracked Effect nail polish

Hello! How are you? Another quick post from me :) This time I'm gonna show you my crackle effect nail polishes by Depend. I got myself three shades - black, red and white. As a base I used Deborah matte black nail polish 01 and Shine tech nude nail polish, number 50 and a red Bourjois nail polish.

Here's the first one, using Depened Multipolish as a base, than Bourjois 1 seconde number 8, and on top Depend crackle nail polish in black.

Than for the next one I used black nail polish by Deborah and white crackle polish.

And my third combination was nude nail polish by Deborah and crackle in red :)

I like all three, they all dry up really fast and crack very fast! The process starts immediately, no need to wait long. Also the finish they gave is matte, so if you put on top coat this will look all glossy, but not necessary (if you put on matte top coat). I like both finishes with glossy top coat and without it. Here on the photos you can see that I didn't use any top coat. I wanted to try how long they would last without top coat. Well, as expeced it started to crumble off the next day. And with the top coat it lasted max two days and than started to crumble off.. I guess this won't bother people that like to change their nail look every two days, but for those who like to apply and leave it there for at least 4 days.. well, they won't be satisfied. I know these are old nail polishes, nothing new really, but to me this was a fun thing to try. I am really not into nail art, I don't even have the necessary things to make anything more complicated, except for a couple of stickers and glitter top coats. Anyway, I really like these three, especailly the white and black combination and the red one has a charm too. The black one looks great on a silver basis, but that's for another post :)
