Hello!
Today I have a market-stall find, Bourjois' 1 Séconde polish in Shade 9 (pity it doesn't have a name). It is a very deep, rich purple with a nice rich shimmer to it. Here are two coats:

It is a very lovely colour indeed!
The polish bottle makes a lot of claims: fan-effect brush, one brushstroke, one second to apply, one coat, 50 second dry time. The extra-wide fan brush is brilliant, and I wish more polishes had them!! It really does make application a lot easier. As for the one-coat claim... this could never be opaque in one coat; it's a definite two-coater. It also took longer than 50 seconds to dry completely, but it still dried quite quickly and I did paint thick coats on a lot of nails. All said, the brush is what really makes this polish a quick, convenient and easy one to use.
As I have already mentioned in this blog, dark and demure colours really don't suit me. I would definitely be pairing this polish with something else to make it more "me", so I did a quick test with four glitters to see how it looked. Here we go...
Index ~ Sapphire by La Femme Beauty
Middle ~ Magic by Accessorize
Ring ~ Dream by Accessorize
Pinky ~ Light pink glitter by Claire's
The combination that really caught my eye was with Magic ~ it added a different, deeper look to the glitter and so I plan to wear a mani with this pair ~ watch tomorrow's post!
Hugs,
Lisa
