China Glaze Make a Spectacle and Sation Rock-a-Guy-Blue

Good morning! It's been rainy and gloomy the last couple days here, so I haven't been able to take any good photos; luckily, I have some photos saved up from last month. Before Halloween, I tried a polish from the China Glaze Wicked collection: Make a Spectacle

Below I used 2 coats of Sation Rock-a-Guy-Blue and 1 coat of China Glaze Make a Spectacle

Make a Spectacle is a gorgeous opalescent hex glitter in a shimmery base. The application was a little thick, but I adore the outcome! I like it over the navy creme base of Rock-a-Guy-Blue, too! I think it'd look great over many colors besides blue. I had a hard time getting great lighting that day; I think that's why it was left unposted!


What do you think of this mani?

Sation Swatches Spam!

Oh no, I did what I told myself I wouldn't...buy more Sation polishes! I saw them on Transdesign at a reduced price and I couldn't resist. They even had colors from the new Nailstock collection, too!

Beware this post is very picture-heavy, so bear with me :P

Sation Little Horse on the Prairie Swatches!

Hello ladies! I am very excited to share this post with you today! I've been wanting to try the newly formulated and packaged Sation polishes and decided to place an order last week! I bought 4 polishes from the new fall collection, Little Horse on the Prairie: Ring Around the Horsie, Blue Sky's the Limit, Weed Out the Wimps, and Rock-a-Guy-Blue! These polishes turned out to be awesome, so I couldn't wait to show them to you!

Below I did 2 coats for each polish, without a topcoat! Since the formula on these were all the same, basically, I am going to address it after all the color descriptions!

Ring Around the Horsie is a burnt red creme with a lot of brown in it! I really like this shade and think it'll be great for fall! A dream to apply :)

Blue Sky's the Limit is a powdery, sky blue creme! I think this could be a year-round color. I never get tired of shades like this!

Weed Out the Wimps is a dusty, army green creme! Oh my goodness I adore this color! I don't have anything like it in my stash and it's probably my fav of the 4 I purchased!

Rock-a-Guy-Blue is a navy creme! This may be my new go-to navy creme. Couldn't ask for anything better. What a cute name too :)

Overall, I am very impressed with this collection! The formula on these was a little thick, but still easy to work with! They were all practically one-coaters, but I added a second coat for good measure. I didn't do any cuticle cleanup since they were all easy to work with! I'm not sure the drying time, but a good drying time would be icing on the cake! Amazing collection. It left me wanting to buy more Sation than I should!

What do you think of this collection?
