Hello lovelies,

I think it's time for some flakies. I haven't played with them for a long time and I don't dare to touch my precious Nfu Oh flakies collection. Luckily, I have received three Dance Legend polishes from their Candy Flakes collection.

First up is Bite Tonight 610 - chocolate brown jelly-ish base full of red opalescent flakies. The polish by itself is quite sheer so I've applied one coat over OPI Scores A Goal! It would need at least three coats to build the opacity. The formula was easy to apply, it dries fast and a bit gritty so it definitely needs a topcoat.

Tinsel 612 - green jelly base with gold opalescent flakies. What a gorgeous green! I've applied two thick coats for the coverage you see in the pictures. It applied well and dried fast. I've applied topcoat to smooth out the surface.

Lollypop 609 - pink jelly base with pink opalescent flakies. This polish is very sheer so I've done a layering experiment with it. I've layered one coat over white, black and three coats by itself. As you can see the colour can be built up but it is also great for layering. Formula was easy to apply and fast-drying.

Gorgeous polishes, right? It's a bit shame they are so sheer but they are jelly-based so I expected that.

If you would like to get your hands on these, they are available at Dance Legend website. Dance Legend is a Russian company so if you can't or don't want to order directly from Russia, you can do so from one of the following re-sellers:

Hello lovelies,

SpaRitual is constantly creating new, amazing collections...the one I'll focus on today is called Quest Colection.

About the collection:

"Six dramatic and highly textured nail lacquers offer a complex though optimistic view of what we might find as we head out into the world. Multiple layers of glitter and color reflect the emotions we face as we set out on our own personal journey to find abundance, knowledge and acceptance. Join us. Be fearless. Quest Glitter Special Edition Collection"

Today I'm swatching Trail Blazer - a chic taupe creme base full of matte white bar glitter and gold sparkly flecks. I've applied two thicker coats for the coverage you see in the pictures. The formula was quite thick so it was almost impossible to apply thin coats. It was easier to work with when applying thicker coats. It dried quite fast and gritty so I've applied two coats of Seche Vite topcoat. Despite the thick formula, the result was gorgeous and unique so I can live with that :)

The last picture shows Trail Blazer with matte finish which beautifully shows off the gold sparkles and bar glitter. I actually liked the matte version a bit more :)

SpaRitual Quest collection and other polishes are available at Sparitual (UK), Feelunique.com and SpaRitual (US). 

Have a lovely day! Lucie x
