A couple of weeks ago, I saw that one of my favorite webshops, Enchantra, was having a 50% discount on China Glaze and even though I promised myself I wouldn't buy any more polishes this month, I just couldn't let this opportunity go by without picking up some of the polishes that I've had on my wish list for a while.
China Glaze Celtic Sun is one of those polishes. It's a neon highlighter yellow polish and I've been lusting after it for oh... I don't know how long. It was first released in the Ink Collection in 2008, but has since been added to the core collection (I think) and it's still available.
The formula is ok, it's just a little on the sheer side, so I layered it over a white base. It flows on the nail with ease and dries fast enough, although a little on the matte side like almost all neons. A nice layer of my trusty HK Girl fixed this problem.
This definitely makes a statement and I got a lot of "Wow, what are you wearing on your nails???" comments, but I just love a neon so bright, you need sunglasses if you want to stare directly at it.
This is not for you if you like a subtle polish, but if you don't mind an in your face kind of color, I'd suggest giving this a go, it's absolutely amazing!
Do you rock the bright, in your face highlighter neons and which one is your favorite?

Wow, that IS bright! I luv it!! How many layers did you need?
ReplyDeleteI did 2 over a white base, but you can totally do just 1.
DeleteIf you want to wear this on its own, you'd probably need at least 3 - 4 coats.
Totally worth it though!
Dude, daar heb je zeker je zonnebril voor nodig :o Nice! Maar iets te knal voor op mijn eigen nagels haha :P
