Sky High....and Loving It!
Written: Jul 16, 2009
Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Pros:Fresh, fun, and funky...smooth and glossy
Cons:It's hard to get off when I want to change colors
The Bottom Line: I really enjoy painting my nails thanks to the fun, fresh colors that China Glaze has to offer...especially Sky High-Top!
This beautiful blue sends tingles up and down my spine. Blue is such an amazing color. It reminds me of a clear blue sky full of sun and fun. I actually have it on my toe nails right now and they look fun and fresh! I have been very impressed with China Glaze Nail Lacquer WITH HARDENERS.
MY EXPERIENCE I'm not a "huge" fan of painting my toe nails. I guess you could say when I act like a tom-boy. I'm starting to squeak out of this phase slowly, but surely. And so, my mom bought a six pack of these funky fun colors. She got alime green, sky blue, rustic orange, luscious pink and so much more. She thought since it's summer, we've got to keep our toes looking fresh and spice things up a bit. I don't blame her. Clear is quite boring with no pizazz. First of all, I shook the bottle up to make sure everything is smooth and mixed. Then I unscrewed the lid, pulled out the brush, and made a nice stroke across my nail. Oh...it was beautiful. The blue made my toe stand out and look absolutely amazing. The polish had no junk, it was well blended and it has a faint shimmer effect to it. I applied one coat, let it dry, then applied a second coat to deepen the color. I personally like to have a flower or star or something on my big toes. When the polish is almost dry (a little tacky) I pull off a flower, decide where to stick it, and push it on. The polish grabs onto the sticker quite nicely while tacky. Then once it is all dry, I apply a clear coat of finisher on top to give it protection and a glossy finish. They look amazing. I love blue....and this blue tops them all!
COLORS Colors...colors...colors everywhere. I went to a beauty shop with my mom to get beauty supplies and I wandered over to the nail polish isle. Wow...and I mean WOW! I was just stunned at "how many" colors I saw. It was ridiculous to say in the least! There were colors that had funky names like Wild Mink, Hawaiian Punch, Spitfire, Don't Touch My Tiara, Her Fabulousness, Treat Me Like a Queen, Pure Torture, An Affair To Remember, Chat Room Rendezvous, Lubu Heels, First Kiss, Recycle, Solar Power, Tree Hugger, Shower Together, Tie The Knot, and Sweet Revenge. These are just a few of the names of they had. I think they are hilarious, entertaining, and the names are just as colorful as the colors themselves.
DESIGN The Bottle is wider at the bottom and slowly slopes smaller to the top. The bottom of the bottle is about 1 1/4 inch in diameter. It stands about 3 1/4 inches tall. The black lid is easy to handle and maneuver while applying the polish. It feels very comfortable between my fingers.
CONCLUSION If you want a fresh blue to liven up your nails, then this Sky High-Top is the perfect choice. It applies nice, stays on for quite a long time, and hardens for maximum protection. It doesn't scratch real easy, and it takes some effort to remove with nail polish remover. So you can imagine this stuff is very tough. The color is vibrant and fun. Spice it up and color your life!
