New in: Nail polishes

Hello my beauties! How are you on this gloomy day? :) Today I thought I would show you some new polishes that have joined my (growing) collection. I've showed them to you in my December's HAUL post, but here are some more up-close pictures with swatches, so you can get a better idea how they actually look. :) I have to say I'm really happy with all of them...

Essie Instant Hot

Essie Absolutely Shore

Essie Hors d'Oeuvres

I really love Essie nail polishes... I've managed to accumulate 10 of them already (I'll be doing a post featuring all of them, soon). :) Even though these three are the 'American' version of Essie polishes (with the thinner brush, maybe a different formula?), I hadn't had any problems with application and I'm still wearing Instant Hot after 7 days and it's looking great. :) Both Instant Hot and Absolutely Shore are on the sheer side so you do need at least 2 coats to get some opacity, but I really don't mind that.

Ciate Cookies and Cream

China Glaze Lorelei's Tiara

Nails Inc Knightsbridge Road Galaxy

The other three polishes I decided to pick up are all from different brands - Ciate, China Glaze and Nails Inc. Cookies and Cream from Ciate is a very well known nude polish, so I just had to get it. I haven't worn it yet, but I do like the shade and I can't wait to put it on my nails. :) My Ciate nail polish collection is also steadily growing and I have so many more on my wishlist. 

I had my eyes on Lorelei's Tiara for quite some time and finally snatched it (got it for an awesome price too). It's just such a wonderful glitter polish. This is my first China Glaze polish, though I doubt it will be my last. :)

Last but not least is the Nails Inc polish in Knightsbridge Road Galaxy. This polish is from their new Galaxy collection (I think there are two or three more polishes in this collection). It's just such a unique glitter polish, really galactic. :) This is my third nail polish from Nails Inc and all three I have are glittery - I guess Nails Inc really knows how to do glitter. :D
