Geeez, it's been an entire week since I've last posted! I can't believe the first week of October is already coming to an end! Time is flying and before you know it, hello 2012! ;) Anyway, hope all is well.
Today, I have the gorgeous Gemstone Overcoat from Andrea Fulerton. I received this beauty in a swap package a while back and I can't believe it's taken me this long to show you all! -_- Let's get down to business, yeah?!
1 coat of Gemstone over China Glaze Wagon Trail
ewww, dry cuticles! -_- lol!

Just for fun, I added 1 coat of Essence Matt TC

As you can see, Gemstone is a true beauty and is, well, a gem ;) I prefer flakies over a dark base since its true colors are fully visible and can bask in all its flakie glory!
I used my existing mani in CG's Wagon Trail, which I showed you here. I'm not sure if Gemstone is a dupe for the famous Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure, but it sure is good enough for me. (i missed out that color -_-)
Lastly, since Halloween is well on it's way, I've changed the font of my watermarks to join in on the Halloween spirit!
As always, hope this helps & happy shopping!
Do you own Gemstone? Have anything like this? In your opinion, is this a dupe for SH Hidden Treasure or Nubar 2010? What are your thoughts?! I'd love to know down below.
Amazing!!

ReplyDeleteGotta love flakies! I don't own Gemstone, SH Hidden Treasure or the Nubar 2010, so I can't really say anything about that, lol! x

ReplyDeletewow! Gemstone is just awesome. I feel it is similar to Sally Hansen's Saloon effect Hidden Treasure.What do you think?
