I’m a huge fan of glitter/shimmer/flakies top coat on black nail polishes! Orly nail enamel in Blackout is my favorite black cream finish nail enamel that I use as a base with all of my glitter polishes! It applies a little streaky in one coat but goes opaque and even in 2 coats. I’m wearing Orly Blackout as base under a beautiful Revlon glitter top coat ~ Top Speed Nail enamel in Comet.
NOTD : Orly Nail Enamel Black Out + Revlon Top Speed Nail Enamel Comet
Winter nail trends always remind me of glossy deep red nail enamels. Reds and deep dark pinks are 2 shades I find hard to resist – be it clothes, lipsticks or nail paints! Today I’m reviewing one of the newest additions to my Winter nail color collection – Lakme Fast and Fabulous nail enamel in Crimson Scream.
Price : Rs 175
Quantity : 10 ml
Lakme ABSOLUTE Fast & Fabulous Nail Enamel Crimson Scream – Review and NOTD
Today I’m reviewing Colorbar nail lacquer shade #74 ‘Midnight Glitter’.
Price: Rs 90
Quantity: 9 ml
Packaging: Colorbar nail lacquer comes in a cuboidal bottle packaging with a round handle. The brush quality is decent and application is easy.
Colorbar 'Midnight Glitter'
Consistency: Consistency of the nail polish is good and it gives an even coating on application. But the shade is almost a transparent blue with blue/teal glitter and doesn’t show up very pigmented on bare nails. If applying on bare nails, 2 coats are required.
Colorbar 'Midhnight Glitter'
However, when used with black nail polish underneath, it looks a beautiful dark teal. The shimmer particles are not chunky or abrasive but smooth and well blended in the nail paint.
Colorbar 'Midnight Glitter' : with black nail polish as base
Colorbar ‘Midnight Glitter’ : 2 coats on bare nails
The GOOD about Colorbar ‘Midnight Glitter’
Even consistency
Decent brush/packaging
Well blended glitter/shimmer particles
Beautiful unique color when paired with black nail paint, single coat required
Dries fast
Decent pricing for quality
The NOT-SO-GOOD about Colorbar ‘Midnight Glitter’
Color doesn’t show up so well on bare nails. But that could be perhaps because it is meant to be worn as a top coat over opaque nail paint.
Final Verdict : The quality of the nail paint is excellent and I love the color is gives with opaque polish underneath. The fact that it doesn’t show up on bare nails gives the opportunity of creating some unique colors by pairing it with different colored nail paints underneath.
