Chanel Jade 407 and Jade Rose 493, Jade coll. 2009 swatches

Chanel Jade 407 and Jade Rose 493 are from the Jade Collection, fall 2009.

Chanel Jade 407:

Chanel Jade 407 - is a lemming for so many women around the world, and even if you do not in particular fancy Chanel, most of you know. 
It is very pricey, but buying it is an investment like buying any other rare collectible item!

It’s a gorgeous jade green with a beautiful green shimmer. I added an extra coat for these photos, but for normal use two coats are enough. I didn’t apply a top coat. 

Chanel Jade Rose:

Chanel Jade Rose 493 is a nude with a very subtle pink shimmer. I added an extra coat for these photos, but for normal use two coats are enough. I didn’t apply a top coat.
Normally I'm not so fond of nudes, but I think Jade Rose looks nice on me... 

Are you lucky enough to own Jade?

Picture Polish Jealousy, Jade and Honey dew - swatches

Today I have 3 green Picture Polish polishes to show you...

 

The first was sent to me by NORWAY NAILS - please check their amazing store....
Jealousy is a grass green PACKED with glitter, and here it's shown in ONE - I repeat ONE coat + Seche Vite top coat - pretty amazing, huh..? It applied fairly thick, but not in the goopy way, it’s nice and manageable, just very rich on the brush.

 

 

Next up is Jade - a pretty mint green with a lovely shimmer. This is 2 coats without top coat!

 

Finally we have Honey Dew, that I got from my dear friend Lydia in a swap.
It's a beautiful pale mint, and here shown in two coats, but you might want to apply 3 thinner coats depending on how you normally apply polish.
All of the above polishes are available in NORWAY NAILS - they ship throughout Scandinavia...

Do you have problems commenting?? I had to change settings because of an insane amount of spam, so now only "registered users" can comment, but I'm not sure if that means all of you!

Please send me an email on metzger@mail.tele.dk if you experience any problems commenting....!!!

Peek-a-boo one-stokes on jade

 

The base color is Uma Godess, a beautiful jade green with a subtle shimmer. I painted the on-stroke flowers and the large dots with acrylic craft color and top coated with Seche Vite.

Grundfarven er Uma Godess, en smuk jadegrøm med et let shimmer. Jeg malede one-stroke blomstene og prikkerne med akrylfarve, og toplakken er Seche vite.

Daisies on jade

 

 

In the middle of January I painted these daisies with acrylic color. The base color is 2 coats of OPI Jade is the New Black, se swatches below. I finished off with Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

Do you like my daisies?
Tomorrow & Thursday you will see more flowers on my blog...

I midten af januar malede jeg disse margeuritter med acrylfarve oven på 2 lag OPI Jade is the New Black, se lakken uden blomster nedenstående. Jeg sluttede med Seche Vite toplak.

Kan du li’ mine margueritter??
I morgen og på torsdag kommer der flere blomster...

Jade is the New Black is a cream polish, that is opaque in two coats. It’s a beautiful dark jade color, and I like it a lot. Here you have it in 2 coats and without a top coat.

Jade is the New Black er en creme lak, der dækker fint ved to lag. Det er en smuk jadegrøn farve, og jeg er vild med den. Her ser du den med 2 lag og uden top coat.
