blue bells ring is one of my favourite polishes from the amazing china glaze collection holiday joy. winter holly, angel wings, cranberry splash and glistening snow were already featured here.
i've been drooling over bbr swatches ever
since first pictures of holiday joy emerged, but when i finally got the
bottle, i was utterly underwhelmed. it looked too silvery with only a
hint of blue, nothing like the swatches. but, when i put it on my nails,
i was amazed!
china glaze really knows how to make
blue polishes with a twist. this one falls in the amazing category,
together with blue iguana and frostbite. it is electric blue packed
with silver foil shimmer, giving it a metallic look. it looks so
amazing, the pictures don't do it credit! it is definitely a one coater,
i added the second but it really wasn't necessary. the formula is on
the thicker side, but it is easy to work with .
the only problem is removal. it doesn't stain the nail itself, but when
you remove the polish, firstly the entire blue part goes away, leaving
the silver foil. blue part stains the skin around the nails, but it
disappears after you wash your hands a couple of times.
it looks the best on a cloudy day:
i wore base coat (essence repair and care) + three coats of polish + top coat (catrice quick dry)
