New MLP Nail Polish
« on: July 13, 2017, 08:24:28 AM »
I haven't seen anyone post about this before so I thought I'd post some pics. The nail polish company China Glaze released a bunch of MLP themed nail polish recently. I picked up some last night and the lady working at the store said they'd been super popular. I couldn't find some of the shades I was looking for. :( If you're looking to get some, I'd recommend going sooner rather than later.

Here's China Glaze's official site promo of the colors. They're a little more accurate than my photos. :lol:

On to the pictures! First up is the whole haul. One Polished Pony set comes with some nail decals and the Songbird Serenade set comes with two Best Friends rings. The black polish in the Songbird Serenade set has a beautiful blue/purple shimmer to it. The blue polish in the One Polished Pony set has a lovely, soft blue/white shimmer to it. It's more of a sky blue than my photo shows.

Next is a close up of Where's The Party Cannon At? BTW, glitter nail polish is reeeeeeally hard to capture accurately in a photo. This polish has big, multi-color sparkles in it. Lot's of fun to look at it in the light.

And this is a close up of Let Your Twilight Sparkle. Again, glitter is hard to photograph. This color shifts from blue to purple and has subtle sparkles of blue and purple glittter in it.

China Glaze is carried in Sally Beauty and Ulta stores. Although Ulta is dicey about carrying the limited edition sets. I've heard China Glaze can be found in the UK too, but I can't confirm that. If you know where else you can find the brand, please post!

How lovely! I'm not one for painting my nails, but this is an interesting tidbit. If you use some of them, be sure to share pictures! I really like the sound of them. So...much...glitter... *fiants*

Thanks for posting this. I just ran to Sally's and got a lot of different colors. The Sally's I went to didn't have the Songbird Serenade set with the rings. Here's mine. I only got the minis.

I love these polishes!  I'm wearing the Twilight Sparkle one now.  It's probably my favorite, since it sort of changes between blue and purple depending on the angle and light.  It's sooo pretty!

The decals have 2 rows of the main characters heads, 2 rows of the elements of harmony, and then a bunch of single rows of hearts, butterflies, rainbows, and stars.  And I can't find instructions for them, but I think they're water slide decals... I'll probably paint my nails soon so I'll try them out and report back. :D

One of my coworkers sent me a picture of these at our local JCPenney salon. I want a few of them. What's the price point on these?

I checked a different Sally's today and found the Songbird Serenade set but didn't find the full size bottles of polish I wanted. The Sally's I checked today was almost out of the minis and the full size ones but had several of the two polish sets.

I think the prices are

Minis $1.79 although some I bought yesterday rang up for $1.29

Full size $7.49

Two bottles of polish with extras $9.99 per set

At least at Sally's I haven't checked Ulta or JCPenny's yet to compare.

I tried out the nail decals. Here's a closeup.

And here's a shot of a decal on my thumb. So the polish I'm wearing is one coat of Let Your Twilight Sparkle over a dark blue/purple polish (Fingerpaint's Art of Theft), and the dots were made with One Polished Pony and She's A Mane-Iac. This photo was taken in the shade.

So the nail decals are water slide which means you have to cut them out and dip them into water for a bit. Eventually the decal should slide off the backing paper and you'll be left with a semi-transparent decal.... Except that didn't happen. I cut the decal out as neatly as I could, but the backing paper just didn't want to come off. That's why there's still a white border around Twilight's head. I don't know if I got a bad batch or what, but these decals were awful to use. :( I wouldn't recommend getting the set just for the decals. The nail polish in the set is fantastic though.  :heart:
