Drugstore Nail Polish Swatches Part 2

Happy Thursday! As promised, today I am bringing you part 2 of my drugstore nail polish swatches. I found a new (and very cheap) brand that I had never seen before which is called CQ. It’s in these really cute bottles and seemed pretty decent. I also saw some nice Borghese ones that I wanted to try which are more expensive at around $8.00 each. And finally a cool looking metallic from NYC. All of these were found at my local Rite Aid. All pictures taken in sunlight with no top coat.

CG – Silver Taupe

Isn’t it cute? I think I might like the bottle shape more than the actual color on this one. It went on very sheer, which isn’t my fav, but after three coats, it wasn’t too bad. I would say it’s a light beige/taupe color with a lot of silver glitter in it.

ManGlaze The Death Tar vs. Other Black’s

Now I am going to feature ManGlaze‘s black polish which is called The Death Tar vs other black’s in my collection. Like their grey polish, Fuggen Ugly, I had no problems with the formula, it was smooth and wonderful. Below are pics of it with and without a Seche top coat.

The Death Tar – Natural light no top coat

As you can see this is a dull black finish. Great color I think but wait until you see it with a top coat!
