Kuchen's Claws: Swatch: Picture Polish Picks

*Go to part 1 HERE <3*

And on with the swatches ;)

For today I will show "Majesty", "Monroe", "Pirouette" and "Antique"
I have bought Picture Polish from NorwayNails, cleanskin.dk and color4nails

"Majesty" - is a gold shimmer polish with scattered holo in it. The golden shimmer dominates this polish but the way the holoflakes catches the light is very charming even though it is subtle. The coverage of this was not good though, I think I used about 4-5 coats of polish to get this result and with a little light under the nail, the nailline was a 100% visible. I have bought a gold polish to wear as underwear for this, cause I love it, but I don't want to use that much time on application again. But I don't regret I bought it, as I don't got anything like this :) And it does have a royal feel to it;)
I expect to use this more when we hit December.

"Monroe" - Is a perfect burgundy scattered holographic nail polish. I mean, just look at the pictures... I am in love with this! It's so charming and sexy, and in that way the name fits perfect. I used three coats for these pictures as the application wasn't smooth covering with two coats - of cause that could be a critic point, but for me the outcome of this is enough to erase that. But if it had been a two-coater the bottle could have contained more manies you know, and I already foresee that I will need another bottle in some years :P

Bottleshot:

"Pirouette" - is a light pink holographic polish with micro shimmer in blue, pink and gold. The holo is subtle and needs a good amount of light to show - for me that means that I won't wear this polish in the winter as I actually really don't like the shimmer effect. It's a little too much with all the different colors over the pink and it looks a little cheap to me, and that is the only thing you see wearing this in the winter. Sadly it was almost impossible to capture the shimmer to show you this... My best picture is the one in shade that shows it a little even though it is blurry. In reality the shimmer is much more overwhelming. In the summer I will like this I think.
I do like that it only needed two coats for perfect coverage. In that way it can be a polish for a quick and easy manicure.

Bottleshot:

"Antique" - is a mauve purple metallic-ish polish packed with silver glitter in one size. I though it was very hard to find good pictures of this polish before buying it, and I understand why now, cause this polish hates cameras. Either it wants to look metallic purple without glitter or it wants to look like dark silver. I took many pictures and finally these three worked. Its a pretty fall color and even appropriate for party manicures because of the glitter. I don't have anything like this polish and I am glad I bough it.
Application I found could be a little streaky if you didn't watch out for it, but if you do this won't be a big problem. It needed only two coat for full coverage so that was really nice
