CND Colour Effects Featuring Blackjack

Happy Saturday morning!

Today I’ve got CND’s Blackjack to show you with the effects. There is definitely a difference in Blackjack compared to some of the lighter colors with the effects, as you’ll see.

A couple people had requested that I also show you what the effects look like over my bare nail so you could see them on their own. I was happy to oblige, so I’ll show you those swatches soon!

Oh and I forgot to actually take a picture of Blackjack on it’s own so to let you know, it’s basically a solid black creme. I used two coats.

Blackjack with Ice Blue Shimmer on thumb, Sapphire Sparkle on pointer, Amethyst Sparkle on middle, Emerald Shimmer on ring and Jade Sparkle on pinky.

Because Blackjack is a solid black color the effects came out either deeper or brighter with this one. It’s pretty interesting how it works depending on the polish color!

CND Colour Effects Featuring Raisin In The Sun

Happy Friday!!

Today I’ve got CND’s Raisin In The Sun effects comparisons. We are nearing the end of this week long CND extravaganza, but I still have a couple more so stay tuned!

Raisin In The Sun

Raisin In The Sun by itself is a gorgeous deep reddish brown creme. I love this color and it looks great with my skin tone. This was two coats to get it completely opaque.

Morning all!

The weekend is just around the corner, yahoo!

Here is yet another new CND polish called Dark Ruby with the 5 effects I have. Enjoy!

Dark Ruby

Dark Ruby is a deep wine colored red creme. Very nice on it’s own. This was two coats here for more coverage.

CND Colour Effects Featuring Inkwell

What’s up ya’ll?

Ok so I am continuing with the week of CND Colour and Effects today with Inkwell. Peep it!

Inkwell

Inkwell is a dark inky blue creme that looks very close to black. This wasn’t quite as opaque as the previous two I have shown you, so I used two coats here.

CND Colour Effects Featuring Green Scene

Morning!

Today I’m going to show you CND’s color Green Scene with the same five effects I used yesterday with Asphalt.

Some of these are harder to tell the differences with on camera because they are pretty subtle. Check them out and let me know what you think!

Green Scene

Green Scene on it’s own is a great bright grass green creme. I love it as it, but when you add some effects, it gets even better. This was extremely opaque in just ONE COAT, as was Asphalt. Amazing.
