Goldfinger

This was a timely Mani - last night 'Goldfinger' was in TV - I forgot to watch it because I got stuck into a book instead,

Two coats of China Glaze - Fast Track and used Rimmel 60 seconds clear as the base and top coat. At first I thought that this nail polish felt tacky and plasticy but after the top coat went on it hardened up fine.

Three days in and only a little wear on the tips.

The colour is great for my skin - that nude with the bling really makes it work.

Don't look at the cuticles - I repeat - don't look at the cuticles.

Sad face :(

The rest of my birthday polishes came on Friday. I had ordered a heap of China Glazes.

I had thought that Sunset Sail would be perfect for me - the nude look for when I want to be more professional. Like today, I was being assessed as a collegial coach.

I was right - the colour is dead on perfect with a hint of shimmer to stop it from being boring but,,, here's the sad face. It's still soft - I can almost scrape it off let alone dint it. It's almost 24 hours later.

Maybe I did something wrong and I'll try it again but I've been wearing nail polish for a long time now so I do know what I'm doing most of the time.

Any suggestions?
