Linda Johansen Violetta, Key Lime, Lilac Lilly and Tampico – Swatch Spam

This last September Friday morning I have 4 Linda Johansen Nail Candy polishes, a Norwegian brand. I love the formula of these polishes, they are so easy and pleasant to work with and the dry time is quick. I have previously shown you other Linda Johansen polishes.
They are shown in two coats with a top coat.

Violetta:

Linda Johansen Violetta is a sweet, violet cream. This is two coats with a top coat.

Key Lime:

Linda Johansen Key Lime is not really a lime in my book, it’s more of a pretty, warm mint. It is a shimmer finish. This is three coats with a top coat.

Lilac Lilly:

Linda Johansen Lilac Lilly is a pink-toned lilac cream, very pretty and feminine. This is two coats with a top coat. 

Tampico:

Linda Johansen Tampico is bright and bold light green cream, my favorite of these 4! This is two coats with a top coat. 

It's difficult to choose, but I think Tampico is my favorite, but I like all 4 of them!

Linda Johansen Dazzle Red swatches

Linda Johansen Dazzle Red is a beautiful bright and bold red loaded with shimmer, and in the sun it sparkles like crazy – it’s so beautiful.

It is possible to use as a one-coater, but this is two coats with a coat of Seche Vite.

I think it is retired, at least I cannot find it on the Linda Johansen website nor on Norway Nails, where I bought it. But you can find other Linda Johansen polishes, and the quality is superb - use the code MARIA10 to get a 10% discount.

Linda Johansen Tango swatches

Linda Johansen Tango is an absolutely gorgeous wine red leaning towards eggplant purple polish with an amazing multicolored shimmer - I LOVE it!

The application is easy, the dry time is good - and here you see two coats without a top coat!

I bought this gorgeous polish from Norway Nails - remember to use the code MARIA10 to get a 10% discount when you shop!

Linda Johansen Twighlight Magenta swatches

Today I have a Norwegian brand to show, Linda Johansen in Twiglight Magenta...

Linda Johansen Twighlight Magenta is a beautiful royal purple that makes me think of dark purple velvet. It has a beautiful shimmer, and in some lower light settings it's almost eggplant purple.
The formula is flawless and the dry time is good - here you see 2 coats without a top coat.

I got this as a blogger sample from Norway Nails, and if you want to shop, use the code MARIA10 to get a 10% discount!

Abstract with crystals - Artsy Wednesday

Today the theme in Artsy Wednesday is crystals.
I painted my nails with Linda Johansen Paso Doble, a gorgeous magenta with loads of pink shimmer, one of the polishes I got from Wenche from Norway Nails for my birthday.

I almost decided to leave it alone. But then the mail man arrived with a black striper, and one stripe lead to another and some dots also joined the party. And THEN I suddenly remembered this weeks theme and added a few crystals here and there. I think it became an OK and slightly different way to use crystals - do you like it?

Dagens tema i Artsy Wednesday er krystaller.

Jeg brugte Linda Johansen Paso Doble, en smuk magenta med masser af shimmer, som min grudfarve. Det er en af lakkerne jeg fik i fødselsdagsgave fra Wenche fra Norway Nails!

Jeg var lige ved ikke at lave nail art på den, men så kom posten lige med en ny sort stiper, og den ene stribe tog den anden, og pludselig var der også prikker på neglene. Og SÅ kom jeg pludselig i tanke om denne uges tema og placerede lidt krystaller hist og her. Det blev vist en OK og lidt anderledes måde at bruge krystaller på - kan du li' det?

Linda Johansen swatches: Razzle Dazzle and Paso Doble

As I told you yesterday I for my birthday got a generous gift card from the sweet Wenche from Norway Nails, and these two gorgeous Linda Johansen polishes are among the polishes I picked!

First we have Linda Johansen Razzle Dazzle - a gorgeous medium purple loaded with micro glitters, some - if not all - are holographic.
My ring finger is darker, because I wanted to see what Razzle Dazzle would look like over at darker color, in this case an eggplant purple. The difference was very clear after the first coat - which could have been enough on the ring finger, but what you see here is 2 coats. It dries with a silky finish, so I decided to add a top coat to add some shine.

Next we have Linda Johansen Paso Doble - just like the dance: fiery and passionate...
It's a fuchsia pink loaded with gorgeous pink and magenta shimmer, this is 2 easy coats without a top coat.

Do you like them - which is your favorite...?

Linda Johansen swatches: Pumpkin Pie and Slow Fox

These two Linda Johansen polishes were blind passengers when I had spent the generous gift card for buying polish (I will show you some of them tomorrow) that I got from the sweet Wenche from Norway Nails - and I just love blind nail polish passengers ;)

First we have Linda Johansen Pumpkin Pie - a juicy orange crelly with a subtle, almost shy shimmer.
This is 3 coats and no top coat - 2 coats is enough if you are OK with a more visible nail line.
They are shown in the medium size, because Blogger still haven't corrected the problem with the color changing - even if I did all the known fixes to my Google+ profile.

Linda Johansen Slow Fox is a dusty, slightly murky petrol blue cream with a very shy shimmer, to be honest I didn't notice it on the nails, so it was a surprise when I started editing my photos!
This is 2 easy coats and not top coat.
