Nail Juice in November

This November at Nail Juice we will be having a few competitions. Some will be open to everyone and some exclusive to New Zealand.

First of all I just want to tell you some fantastic news, I have finally found an apartment to move in and it has a massive balcony and big windows everywhere! So that means I should have a lot of sun to play around with this Summer. My current balcony is less than a metre wide so I'm pretty happy with this move.

Back to what I am supposed to be telling you about, the prizes. I have a few nail art books to giveaway, a mini Color Club Maintenance set, some nail art goodies and of course some pretty polishes!

HOW TO WIN:

There will be a new competition each week of November, so 3 in total.

I will post a series of photos of different polishes and you have to guess the correct polishes.  I will post hints each day until a winner prevails :D

There will also be spot prizes for international and national readers. More info will be given when the actual contest is posted! :) I hope you guys enjoy this, I am trying to find some special polishes for the prizes.

NJ Update

Hey guys,

Sorry for the lack of new material at the moment but I'm trying to get my nails looking great again so I can take some more photos for you :).

Winter sure does a number on them!

I've been digging through my folders and found a design that would be perfect for Halloween! I will post some new ideas shortly :D

See you soon!

Color Club Twiggie

A

At first when I saw that Twiggie was described as a mint green I thought it was a little odd to have a pastel in a neon collection. Surprisingly once applied it's sort of a pastel-neon if that makes any sense. 

Twiggie definitely isn't as bright as those lovely green highlighters from high school but also isn't quite as pale as MAC's Peppermint Patti. I think it would actually be closer to Orly's Mint Mojito. 

Twiggie gives good coverage, only two coats needed. This polish is a cream finish so you don't need a ridge filler to bring out the neon some more or to even it out as the formula is a little thick.

Although it is a slightly thick formula it is quite streaky on coat number one. Even using a ridge filler I still got streaks.

AVAILABLE EARLY SEPTEMBER IN THE 'POPTASTIC' COLLECTION WHICH WILL BE REPLACING THE CURRENT NEONS

Color Club Warhol

Now this is a neon pink I can wear!

I loved wearing this one, love at first sight, even if it was only on one nail. A squishy jelly finish with only two coats necessary. I just had fun wearing Warhol, brightened up my day every time I caught a glimpse of it.

I can see Warhol being a popular choice for nails in Spring and Summer. Wouldn't it look so cute on your toes with your pretty sandals or jandals?

Once again my poor camera has let me down, Warhol has a little more of a redness to it, more fuchsia looking. It's kind of like OPI's Fuchsia Fling and Zoya's Morgan but with a punch!

AVAILABLE IN STORES EARLY SEPTEMBER

Color Club Poptastic

Poptastic was actually my least favourite. I don't know what it is about neon pinks that I just can't bring myself to love them. Maybe because of the overuse of the pink highlighters in my school years?

Aside from that, Poptastic applies really easily and dries fairly quickly.

It does dry slightly matte so make sure you wear a top coat with Pop.

Not too much to say about Poptastic, a lot of other brands have made their own neon pinks so it's not too much of a unique colour. Poptastic isn't a bad polish, just not my fave :)

AVAILABLE IN STORES EARLY SEPTEMBER

Color Club Chelsea Girl

Chelsea Girl is quite scary at first. By that I mean on your first coat it's almost like you're applying water! But then somehow coat number two seems to make it all better. But then in saying that, you do get a cool jelly look going on. 

Chelsea Girl reminds me of the water slides we make down the hill at my parents house... 

My photos make this polish look a little lighter than it really is. I'd say it has a tad more navy in it, and of course it looks more squishy in real life. Dumb camera.
