The polish 243 (don't you think number names are boring and hard to remember? I think so) from Depend is a sweet polish. It is a light purple with micro silver glitter. The glitter makes the polish shine, but not sparkle. The color is nice, but not wow. Follow me? It is just a bit pale.
But, it is easy to paint with and you could get away with just two layers. But I do three. But that is me.
I might have to think about something more fun to do with this, maybe I could use it for layering somehow?

Isadora Beach khaki
Isadoras summer collection has both bright, strong colors and more light, a bit more sophisticated colors. Beach khaki is the later. It is a whiteish beige shimmer polish with some pink it. It looks a bit like a dirty pearl, if you can understand what I mean.
First layers with this polish is a bit streaky, but that evens out with two more layers. But you have to work with it. The formula is also a bit thick, and the brush is too wide I think. Like I always think with Isadoras brushes.
But the color is nice.

OPI Road house blues
Road house blues is the polish from OPIs Touring America collection that caught my attention the most.
It is a rich inkblue creme color with a hint of purple in it. It looks beautiful in the bottle, just because of the purple. But then on the nail it becomes a bit darker and the purple is no longer so visible. But it is still beautiful. It might not be unique, but I like it. Especially that you can see that it is blue, and not turns in to black which is so easy with a dark polish.
As well as with the brown Get in the expresso line from the same collection, this polish is a bit thin and runny and I have to do some cleaning up and even do one nail all over again because the polish slips away.
I use three layers to get opacity, but I think that two layers could have worked.

Black and pink
I wasn't supposed to buy another polish. Or two for that mather. But standing in line waiting to pay for a dress at H&M I saw these two beauties for the price of one. Who could resist the black Manhunter and the bright pink It's genious M then?
I think black is a great color to wear on my toe nails, because then I can wear any color I want on my fingers. And pink, well I am looking for the perfect pink...

OPI Skull & Glossbones
Skull & Glossbones might be my favourite from OPIs Pirates of the Caribbean collection. It has a sophisticated look, although the comparison that comes up in my head is bones. Skelletonsbones. It has a light, dirty grey tone with a hint of green that reminds me of bones. I like it and I think it looks good.
Like many pastells the first layers are streaky but after four layers it looks great. Sometimes a polish is worth four layers, and this is one. It is easy to paint it as well.
A color too keep. And use!

China glaze White cap
I am sorry, but White cap from China glaze collection Anchors away is not my cup of tea. Maybe that is why I have been putting it off trying it on.
Well, anyway, White cap is a white shimmerpolish with gold shimmer. And it is this gold I don't like,it makes my nails look stained and discolored. The color is also a bit boring. No, this doesn't do it for me.
It is easy to paint with though, but it is sheer and after four layers I still have a lot of VNL.

China glaze Cha Cha Cha
Cha cha cha from China glaze summercollection Island escapes is a polish that makes me happy. It is an applegreen shimmer polish. My nails looks like energyfields with this on. And I love this metallic shine on my nails.
The formula is good and easy to paint with.I settle with three layers although I do have some visible nail line. But it is okey here. The color is so bright so you don't mind it.
This is a real keeper I think.
