Get Artsy With A Nice Chianti





No blue in today’s mani, but grey und burgundy.





My base color is Essence Get Artsy (Vintage District Limited Edition) a medium grey base with a gorgeous pink shimmer. The shimmer translated well to the nail, but was very hard to capture on picture. The formula was good, a little on the thin side but opaque in two coats.








On top of Get Artsy I dabbed one coat of ILoveNailpolish A Nice Chianti, „a beautiful variation of burgundy and deep wine colored glitters“ in a clear base.

Application was easy, no fishing needed and the glitters spread easily with dabbing. I noted that A Nice Chianti smells a little strong. Burgundy is not a color I’m usually wearing, but I really like this polish over grey, even though this combo gives me some odd skin color.













I finished with one coat of Nail Pattern Boldness Glitter Food and one coat of Cult Nails Wicked Fast.


ILoveNailpolish is available on Etsy.

    Den Vintage District Lack habe ich auch, leider trocknet er bei mir gar nicht durch und hält dann nicht mal :/

      Schade, so macht das Lackieren dann ja auch keinen Spass mehr, dabei ist es eine wirklich schöne und auch aussergewöhnliche Farbe. Ich lese immer wieder, dass viele Leute Probleme mit Essence-Lacken haben, du bist da kein Einzelfall. Meine Nägel mögen Essence glücklicherweise. Na ja, sie mögen fast alles - ausser Chanel ;-)

    Lovely combo! I also own Get Arty, and it's the only grey I'll ever wear that really suits me.

      Thank you, Natalia! I think it's the pink shimmer that makes the difference, if grey polishes usually don't suit you.
