Norway Cosmos






This is the mani I wore at Oslo. I thought the Norwegians might like it, but I got exactly zero comments on it...





The main color of this mani is Picture Polish Cosmos, a vibrant royal blue with lots of scattered holo particles. Application was a dream, I used two medium coats. And as I wasn't changing my polish as often during my vacation, I can confirm a great wearing time: only after five days it had some little chips.

My ring finger shows the Norwegian flag (at least it's supposed to be the Norwegian flag, as I already mentioned before: me and freehand nailart = instant fail), using Essie Blanc (white), A England Perceval (red) and P2 So Cool! (blue).

As a finishing move, I added one coat of Essence Better Than Gel Nails Top Sealer.

    1. Vielen Dank, Wiebke! Den Norwegern war es ziemlich egal, aber vor ein paar Jahren trug ich auf einem Schottland-Trip die St. Andrews Flagge auf den Nägeln, da war ich der grosse Hit und hab mehrmals Täglich Komplimente gekriegt :-)

    1. Thank you so much. I didn't wear a yellow and blue mani when I visited Stockholm a couple of years ago, so I can't tell if the reactiom would have been different there ;-)
