L'Oreal: Magic Croisette

Oh yeah, the weekend's nearly over again but I've had a great one!  I finally took the plunge and met up with two other Melbourne beauty bloggers today for what turned out to be a fun lunch - Thanks Ling from The Best Beauty Blog and Ling from Pork Chop's Nest for a fantastic afternoon :)

Onto the polish - Magic Croisette is another of the awesome shades from L'Oreal's current L'Or Electric collection.  Two out of two for success with these new L'Oreal polishes so far in terms of colour and application.  Firstly the colour is an unusual sea blue shot with gold shimmer so it leans towards teal - gorgeous!!  Second, I put this through a proper application test - I applied two coats in the evening and it dried smoothly and quickly enough for none of the dreaded sheet prints next morning - bonus!  No bubbling either as I've experienced with some of the older Titanium range. 

I'm posting sunlit and lamplit pix to bring out the shimmer:

Off I go cos my son's hassling me for the computer....

Until next time.

    1. I am IN LOVE with the new L'Oreals - I saw the whole new range at Priceline today but thought I'll wait until I've worn the first three before I buy more!!!

  4. Yowza! L'oreal has stepped their nail game up. I absolutely loved the older square bottles and the colors were the bomb. Don't call it a comeback....

    1. I don't know why but we never got the square bottles here in Aus. We had the curved titanium formula bottles and I had some bad experiences with the formula of those so these are a huge improvement!

    1. I never thought I'd have the nerve to reveal myself in person to the blogging world but now I'm glad I did it. Bloggers are people too, haha! If I ever get up to your part of the world I'd be looking to catch up with you guys too! Three cheers for blue!!!
