[ETUDE HOUSE] Wannabe Perfumed Syrup Nails

The other nail polish set I purchased together with the 'Choco Smoky Nail Kit' is the Wannabe Perfumed Syrup Nails. It's from the same product line as the Lipgloss and Style Making Kit from [ETUDE HOUSE]. The illustration on the packaging is again by Annika Wester!

Description: Nail kit comes with base and top coats for multi-colored expression.

The packaging design is very cute and girly again. It's kept in white and pink colors. On the back you see a illustration of how to apply the 3 nail polishs.

Each translucent bottle contains 7g and comes with a dark purple lid.

The colors from left to right:

#1 Base (Glam Pearl): A shimmering silver nail polish with some silver glitter inside.

Apply the base coat to nails, covering entire nail surface.

#2 Middle Coat (Sparkling Silver): A rather clear nail polish with lots of silver shimmer and some bigger glitter particles.

Allow the base coat to partly dry and then apply the middle coat from the mid-nail line to the tip.

#3 Top Coat (Bling Bling Rose): A pink color full with silver shimmer and glitter.

Let #1 & #2 completely dry and then apply the top coat to the nail tips.

 I was wondering why this nail kit is called 'Perfumed Syrup Nails' coz in the bottles it smells like every other nail polish and that gives me easily a headache.

But after applying it to my nails I found it out: It started to smell a bit like roses.

I tried to apply it to show you some examples: 

I like this nail kit! The colors are very nice and not as dark as from the [SKINFOOD] 'Choco Smoky Nail Kit'.

Price: around 9,- €/ US$11.50 
Bought at: eBay (zinopark)    

What I love:  

The colors and my nails smell slightly like roses afterwards.

What I don’t like: 

There is nothing I dislike yet.

Will I buy this again? Not this one but there was a product line called 'Party Queen' available, too.

[SKINFOOD] Choco Smoky Nail Kit *Chic Brown*

Long time ago I owned quite a lot of nail polishes. I loved to buy different colors especially during summer time when I also could show my feets. But around 2 years ago I stopped to buy these because my previous job in Australia didn't allow to wear nail polish or to have long nails. And now I go to a nail studio to get my nails done!

I know that korean brands offer a lot of nice polishes but I think they would look weird on my 'nail studio made' gel nails. Anyway, I still couldn't resist to get at least two nail polish sets. One of them is the Choco Smoky Nail Kit from [SKINFOOD]. I got the Kit in #1 Chic Brown.

In one of my previous posts I reviewed already the Lipgloss and Mascara from this product line. The Nail Kit is also available in #2 Warm Brown which contains 3 different brown shades.

Description: The Chocolate Makes You more Sweet & Deep.

Use this nail kit to create a chocolate-smooth smoky nails.

The Choco Smoky Nail Kit is rather small and the packaging is brown & beige. Inside the box are the nail polish bottles. These bottles are translucent with a dark brown lid and a brush applicator. Each bottle contains 4.5ml!

The bottles got a number on each back: #1 (Base Coat), #2 (Middle Coat) and #3 (Top Coat).

#1 Base Coat (Pale gray): This color is called 'Pale gray' but for me it looks more like a beige-brown with silver shimmer. Apply this color to your whole nail and let it dry.

#2 Middle Coat (Light gray): Apply the gray-brown color over the Base Coat to 1/2 (half) of your nails and let it dry as well. This color has silver shimmer, too.

#3 Top Coat (Dark chocolate): 'Dark chocolate' looks like a gray and also has silver shimmer in it. Apply this Top Coat to your nail tips.

I'm not perfect in applying nail polishes but I tried it to show you some examples:

I can say that I like the idea of those nail kits and I like these colors, too. But I also think they look a bit weird on me. Maybe because I'm not used to wear brown/ gray nail polish. I usually wear bright colors like pastel pink, blue, green, beige or just my white (french) tips.

Price: around 9,- €/ US$11.50  
Bought at: eBay (zinopark)  

What I love:   

3 colors in one box!

What I don’t like:  

There is nothing I don't like except the strong nail polish scent which gives me headache.

Will I buy this again? No, I don't think so.
