It's almost Halloween and I just remembered that I haven't shown you the China Glaze Awakening polishes for Halloween 2010 yet! I will try to show them all before Halloween, so here's the first one: Zombie Zest!
China Glaze Zombie Zest, four coats in daylight. Zombie Zest is a yukky, murky green filled with tons of green and gold glass flecks. I wouldn't necessarily call this a glitter. I needed four coats for opacity, so Zombie Zest is a bit of a sheer Zombie. 
Macroshot of this awesome murky greenish baby. I really like these kind of colors atm. I don't know what it is, but these you-love-them-or-you-hate-them ugly colors appeal to me. 
Application.. Zombie Zest is on the sheer side, so you need more coats to get full coverage (if you don't want vnl, like me). The polish formula was alright, at some points it was a bit on the thick side, but still runny. Drying time was good despite the amount of coats.If you want Zombie Zest, don't hold out too long because the Awakening Collection for Halloween 2010 is limited edition. If it's sold out, there are a couple of dupes: SpaRitual Optical Illusion and Orly It's Not Rocket Science. I will post a comparison on the last one soon so you can see how similar they are :)
I love this colour, and I agree with you on the either-you-love-it-or-you-hate-it part :)
ReplyDeleteGuess I'm just a sucker for greens :D
I am not very a fan of the color, but I owe reconnaitre that this varnish is magnificently elaborated well, the glitter and the reflections are sublime. I have hate to see the others now.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! Love your swatches!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty this one
ReplyDeleteI love this! Way more than the NARS polish in Mash I was eying.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I only got Mummy may I from this collection thinking I'd hate the other colors but the more pics I see the more I wonder if I want the other two colors.
