| China Glaze Custom Kicks |
China Glaze Custom Kicks is a sea foam green/teal with tiny flecks of golden shimmer. This shade was released in the 2009 China Glaze Kick's Collection. Lucky enough for those who want to snag this shade, it's not a Limited Edition shade. (I spotted it at my local ULTA)
The shade appears a little more blue-teal in the bottle, but on my nails it's much more of a green-teal. Strangely, it appeared more green after I applied my top coat.

The formula is exceptional with this shade. It's somewhat thick - but not too thick, applies with no streaks and is opaque with one coat. I always like to at least apply two coats though - but for those who are painting their nails on the go, this shade is pretty low maintenance and you can get away with one.

You may notice my nails are much shorter. I think I prefer them a bit shorter as it's easier to apply moisturizers, concealer, text, etc. The only thing is, it makes my fingers look stubbier. Do you like your nails shorter or longer better?
SUPER PRETTY!
ReplyDeleteLove it!
ReplyDeletethats stunning, i prefer shorter nails too as long as theres a bit of free edge nail, i think they're so much easier!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! What a fun summery shade. Do you have anything else from that collection?
ReplyDeleteWhao! What a cool color! And yes, your nail look great shorter.

The Girlie Blog - Thank you!!
TzuYien89 - Thanks so much! They use to be pretty bad, until I realized how much better they look when they are filed straight across, not rounded. My BF would always tease me and say I have little second grader finger nails.. lol
