China Glaze Frostbite

It's Friday, yay? My week has been rather average (not feeling so good) but I'm hoping to perk up tomorrow (perk! Who says perk anymore? LOL. Well, I do as you can see). I thought I would round off my PITA (Pain in the..bottom) week with yet another PITA to photograph couple of polishes that are known as China Glaze Frostbite and Topshop Nails Ice Crush. They sound like a match made in polish heaven and indeed they are :)

 This is Frostbite without flash, looks like a creme but it's not, and it's darker.

This is the truest color pic I could manage

 Frostbite with Flash, this has a gorgeous blue shimmer :)

China Glaze Frostbite is a lovely blue polish that falls in the "hard to photograph but so awesome on" polishes. It's definitely in the electric blue category with a light blue shimmer in the light. I applied a base coat and only 1 coat of Frostbite and no top coat.

I thought I would bling the mani up a bit with a glitter top coat, and had an untried bottle of TopShop Nails in Ice Crush. It's a holo silver glitter of small and large glitters and oh-so-blingy in the light :) But, of course, the blingy goodness is hard to photograph!

 Here is a few blurry pics to show the holo bling :)
 Phew, so many pics! Anyways, hope you enjoyed the end of the 'difficult to photograph" week. Next week I am definitely targeting easy to photogrpah polishes! I am sick of having to say "trust me, it's awesome" LOL.

Hope you have a great weekend planned. I am going to post my lilac jelly sandwich that I have in the "My Current Nails" section of my blog, I love, love, love it. :)
