NOTD: Catrice Ultimate Nail Laquer 170 I Scream Peach

Today's NOTD is a beautiful peachy/coral, almost orange with a cream finish. It's 170 I Scream Peach by Catrice. Catrice is a brand which you can buy in drugstores in the Netherlands. It's one of my personal favourite drugstore brands. I love Catrice nail polishes, because their cheap, only €2.50 and they stay on 3-5 days and then they start chipping, but usually I've already changed my nail polish by then. I really love this colour, to me it doesn't scream peach but summer! Queen's Day is tomorrow! A Dutch national holiday and our national colour is orange so I thought this colour would be appropriate.

Do you own any Catrice nail polishes? Do you like them as much as I do? Any colours you recommend?

NOTD: Eyeko Coral Polish

Today's NOTD is Eyeko's Coral Polish for resort nails. Dreaming of Ipanema beach? This flattering coral bright will get your toes resort-ready. This colour screams summer to me, and I love summer! It's more of an orange-y coral but still a lovely colour. On this picture I'm wearing 2 coats of Coral Polish and no topcoat. This nail polish costs €5.00 but you can also buy Coral Polish in the Summer Hols set togther with Saucy Polish and Punk Polish for only €11.00. I really like Eyeko Polishes, I've already tried 3 colours and they all apply really smoothly, last around a week and Eyeko has some pretty and original colours.

NOTD: My first China Glaze polish! First Mate (Anchors Away Collection)

I bought my very first China Glaze nail polish! I'm a real OPI-fan but Christina convinced me to buy China Glaze. I bought First Mate from the Anchors Away Collection. It's a stunning navy blue with a cream finish. It could almost get away with just 1 coat, but to be on the safe side I applied two. So far I really like China Glaze, the only thing I really miss is the big wide brush like OPI has.

Which do you prefer: OPI or China Glaze?

NOTD: Eyeko Saucy Polish

Today's NOTD is Eyeko Saucy Polish, for naughty nails. I paid €4,50 for it. It's a more deeper red than the avarage bright red. This colour reminds me a bit of ketchup, that's probably why it's called Saucy Polish. It has a cream finish and applies really easy, the formula is quite thick so it's almost opaque in just one coat. I'm wearing 2 coats of Eyeko Saucy Polish over a basecoat.

Do you like bright red nails?

I absolutely do! Red is my favourite colour.

NOTD: Sabrina Long Wear 717

Another color I bought in Greece (last summer) which I think goes with every season. Whether it is summer or winter, this color goes with every look - that's why I love it so much and want to share it with you :).
I don't really know how to describe this color; I would say it is dark red, with purple undertones. It was opaque in just one coat. (sorry for my dry cuticles)
About the long wear: This won't last perfectly for a week, it started to chip off after 5 days.

I am not sure about the price, but it was around €3,50. 
What are you wearing on your nails?

NOTD: Seventeen 266 with Essence Nail Art Twin in 02 Julia

When I was at Liza's I also painted my nails with one of her nail polishes she bought in Greece and I couldn't resist adding an accent on my ring finger. The polishes I used were Seventeen’s 266 (a neon purple with a cream finish) and Essence's Nail Art Twins in 02 Julia (a silver with multi-colour duo chrome glitter topcoat). I really like this combination of bright-in-your-face purple and silver glitter. I also just really love accent nails.

The 266 by Seventeen was opaque in just two coats, and when I was applying the Esscen glitter topcoat I thought I would hate it. It looked really thick and not a whole lot of glitter came off, but I could quite easily add a bit more glitter and it was dry sooner than I thought. Now I actually really love the polish because it doesn’t feel al rough when you touch the nail, which you sometimes have with glitter polishes and I hate that. This one actually feels quite smooth. I really love this look, at work today this little boy kept staring at my nails and told me they were pretty! So cute!

What about you, do you like accent nails?

NOTD: GT Cosmetics 336 (Chanel Jade dupe)

As you know, I've been to Greece recently, and ofcourse I bought some nice beautygoodies!
I love pastel colors, and this is a perfect spring-color. Also it is a perfect dupe of the well known Chanel Jade nail polish.
It is by the brand GT cosmetics (never heard about it) and is available for around €4,-.
(If we do have any Greek readers, please correct me if I am wrong!)

Here is a picture taken with flash by daylight.
What colors do you like for spring?

NOTD: OPI Diva of Geneva (Swiss Collection)

Colour/Formula:
OPI describes it as: A Vibrant pink-red that’s anything but neutral.
I describe it as: A purple with pink undertones with a golden sheen to it.

Well you can call it whatever you want, it’s a gorgeous colour. Too bad you can’t really see the gold sheen in the picture. I always have this feeling that pictures don’t do nail polish justice. They look so much better in real life. Just a fun fact about how amazing this colour is: even my sister has worn it and that something because she usually only wears clear or pink nail polish. On the picture I’m wearing a base coat and 2 coats of OPI’s Diva of Geneva.


Staying power:

Like expected from OPI it stays on for more than a week before it stars to chip. Of course you get a white line at the tip of your nails because they grow.

Packaging:
Like usual the same OPI packaging, glass bottle, black cap. I do have to say I find OPI bottles huge! I wonder if I will ever finish a bottle.
Price/Quality:
OPI is quite expensive. This bottle costs €13,95, but you get 15ml of product, which is a lot! Like I’ve said above I’m afraid I’ll never finish a bottle.OPI nail polishes are good quality. I like have pretty nails but I don’t have the time to redo my nails every 2 days, that’s what I like about OPI, I don’t have to worry about my nails for a whole week.

Overall:

+ Amazing quality, will stay on for more than a week!

+ Beautiful, original colour

+ Wide range of colours in permanent line

+ Huge bottle

- Quite expensive

- Limited Edition colour

- Huge bottle
