Royalty

I had a tough time picking a color today.  There's a pink China Glaze that I've been itching to try out but when I picked my outfit for a family get together this evening, I couldn't have been happier with my decision.

China Glaze - Frostbite


I was frustrated with the application.  Maybe the polish didn't interact well with the Revlon base coat?  It kept streaking and the first coat was horrible, but after the second things evened out.  Anyway, I LOVE this color and it doesn't look awkward with my skin tone. 

The pics are deceiving. I tried to capture the true color in different lighting but it didn't work.  In real life, the color is a shimmery blue and the pics make it look so much brighter than it truly is.  The middle pic up top is in the sunlight the rest indoors in various lighting.  Two coats was fine but for good measure, I would have done three if I had the drying time.

Application:
Revlon Quick Dry Base Coat
2 coats of Frostite
Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat
