FLORMAR DUO 2X CHROME DC07 & ONE STROKE FLOWERS

Hi everyone, hope your week is going well so far and if not then there's only 2 days left ; ) 

Anywho when I was in Turkey I knew I had to pick up some of the Flormar Ducohrome polishes but unfortunately they didn't have them in any of the places where Flormar was sold :( 

In their shop however I managed to find this DC07 and although I couldn't really see any duocrhome in the bottle it still looked pretty and I was in a hurry! 

When I got home and tried it I was disappointed, there is no duochrome visible at all and although it's a pretty colour I can't see myself reaching for this one again ! 

To make it a bit more interesting I added some one stroke flowers in black and white. I love the contrast of the black and white flowers against the complex colour, I did a similar thing here. 

I think the nail art saved it for me!

FLORMAR 246 & ETUDE PINK PRISM SWEET BON BON

I saw this Etude polish in someones haul on Instagram, so one quick eBay search later it was on it's way to me!

Unfortunately, while I love it in the bottle, the formula is terrible, it's thick and gloopy and requires you to place the glitter yourself and I'm not a fan of this. Also there's an abundance of pink glitter and the blue and green pieces are quite sparse and they require quite a bit of fishing. 

I applied one very tricky coat over Flormar 246 which is a lovely nude crelly.

First I hit up the Flormar store and I think I did quite well, I haven't put the numbers up but if you'd like to know the numbers of any of these then let me know !

Then I went to a Drugstore called Cosmo City where I found the following:

Golden Rose Jolly Jewels

Then I got the following Essence polishes from Cosmo City and 2 different Gratis Stores. To be honest I would have bought all the Essence polishes but at this point I was worried about how many polishes there would be in my luggage, last thing I want is for them to destroy my pretties ! 

They were only 2.5 Turkish Lira which is about 90p !!

Gratis also had a selection of the older Essence Color & Go polishes which are now discontinued! I managed to find Glisten Up and a backup of my favorite grey Got a secret!!

FLORMAR & CHINA GLAZE PURE JOY

*this is a scheduled post* 

So this is a quick combo I threw together a while ago. 

I love the combo of purple and red, I don't know what it is but I love love love the combo; so for this I started with one coat of Flormar (can't remember the number now but I'll update it when I get it out) I topped that off with one coat of China Glaze Pure Joy !

I loved it, Pure Joy went on quite densely but otherwise it was all good :)

So do you ove the combo of purple and red?
