Tip guides and a top coat disaster - en top coat katastrofe

If you click on the photo, you should be able to see the bubbles, read more below - hvis du klikker på billedet, burde du kunne se boblerne, læs mere nedenstående
I have had some tip guides a while, so I thought I’d better try them. The polish really needs to be  very dry, I experienced that, but no real harm was done. I used different kinds and placed them to create patterns. I used 2 coats China Glaze City Siren as the base and as the extra color China Glaze Concrete Catwalk (should have applied it a bit thicker, but it didn't show IRL), both from the Metro Collection 2011. I also placed a few golden beads.
And then I wanted to try Poshe dry fast top coat once again – and look at all the bubbles, visible on the first photo in daylight, that made me very grumpy. But it gets MUCH worse, see below…

Jeg har haft disse såkaldte tip guides (til fransk eller halvmåne manicure) i et stykke tid, og fik lyst til at prøve dem på en noget anderledes måde. Jeg fandt ud af, at lakken skal være TØR, men der skete ikke nogen uoprettelig skade. Jeg brugte forskellige slags og placerede dem, så de skabte mønstre. Som grundfarve brugte jeg China Glaze City Siren og som den ekstra farve China Glaze Concrete Catwalk (skulle have påført et lidt tykkere lag, men i virkeligheden så det fint ud), begge fra Metro Collection 2011. Da jeg var færdig placerede jeg også nogle få små guldperler.
Og så ville jeg igen afprøve Poshe dry fast top coat, og prøv lige at se de bobler, de gjorde mig godt nok muggen, men det var IKKE slut endnu, se nedenstående...

Poshe promises: touch dry in 1 minute – completely dry in 5 minutes, but I have the other times I tried it tought to myself, that that was not the case. I accidentally pushed my hand against something around 20 minutes later, and some of the beads got caught, and removed a middle part of the design. So now I was really annoyed, and with a cotton pad I pushed downwards on each nail – and look….
Time for a new mani – grrrr, I’m so going to make a dry fast top coat comparison, check in again tomorrow….
This is now donated: I bought two Poshe top coats, so whoever might like to have a brand new for free – it’s yours, if you pay the shipping. To Europe it's Danish kr. 23 is around €3, and the easy way would be PayPal!!! Make a comment about it here below, if you want it, and you need to follow me by Google friend connect!
DANSK:
Poshe lover: berøringstør på 1 minut og fuldstændigt tør på 5 minutter, men jeg har de andre gange jeg har prøvet den tænkt, at det slet ikke passer. Denne gang kom jeg absolut omkring 20 minutter senere til at støde imod noget, og nogle af perlerne hang fast og den midterste del af lakken på en af neglene var væk. Så nu blev jeg for alvor rigtigt sur, og tog med en vatrondel fat i de andre negle og trak ned af – og se, hvad der skete…
Grrrr – jeg måtte starte forfra, og i morgen vil jeg vise dig en test og sammenligning mellem nogle hurtigt tørrende top coats…
Den er nu doneret: Jeg købte 2 Poshe top coat, så hvis du har lyst til at give en splinterny og aldrig åbnet Poshe en chance, så må du få den, bare du selv betaler portoen, indenfor Danmark 16,- som brev, (kig måske osse under neglelak til salg)!

  1. You might want to try Seche Vite Quick Dry Top Coat its expensive but its worth it. Thats what I use and I absolutely love it, Ive been able to do more with my nails and not worry about them smudging. And they really are completely dry in about 5 minutes maybe longer but not by much. I hope this helps.

  2. omg, i used to have poshe topcoat and have only great words for it... i don't know how this could happened... maybe you should try it on regular manicure (just two coats of polish) before you give up on it ;-)
    i'm so sorry this happened to you :-(
