Colores de Carol Wild Avocado

Hajde da iskoristim ovo lepo sunčano vreme da nosim i uslikam neki holić. Nov holić. I taman da testiram novu bazu. I da teram inat jesenjim/Haloween manikirima. Multitasking. 😎 Ovo je jedan od lakova koje sam pre mesečak dana uzela preko Lakodoma, koji od sada posluje samo po sistemu pretprodaje, tako da pratite njihove najave kako biste bili u toku sa novim nabavkama.

After a week of true autumnal weather, we got several days of sun. Why not take that opportunity to wear and photograph a holo polish. A new holo polish. And give a new base coat a try. And to go against all the autumnal/Halloween manis. Multitasking. 😎 This is one of the polishes I bouth a month ago from Lakodom, which is now only working as a preorders site, so subscribe to their newsletter to be informed of upcoming preorders.

Wild Avocado je ovogodišnji dodatak stalnoj postavci Colores de Carol lakova. Opisan je kao maslinasto zeleni linearni holo lak te mi nije jasno zašto se zove Wild Avocado, ali to je nevažno pošto je opis prilično tačan. Meni u zatvorenom deluje močvarno zeleno i to je, za moje potrebe, pohvalno. Na suncu je definitivno maslinasto zelen. Nažalost, uprkos prilično jakom holo efektu, moj foto aparat nije mogao dobro da uhvati dugu, ali jeste metalik osnovu koja se krije ispod. Iako je prilično pigmentisan, boja ne maskira dugu, mada se plavi deo spektra vidi slabije. Četkica mi se ne sviđa, kao ni u prethodnom CdC laku. Preširoka je za precizno nanošenje, ali uz novu bazu i dosta strpljenja uspela sam da dobijem pristojan izgled (ako izuzmemo činjenicu da nisam mogla da priđem bliže eponihijumu). Dva sloja su potrebna za punu boju i ravnomerno prekrivanje.

Wild Avocado is this year's addition to Colores de Carol permanent line. It is described as an olive green linear holo polish, so I am not clear why it is called Wild Avocado, but that doesn't matter because the description is rather fitting. Indoors it looks swampy, and for my purposes it is a good thing. In sunlight it is definitely olive green. Unfortunately, despite it having a rather strong holo effect, my camera just couldn't capture the rainbow, but it had no trouble with the metallic base that is hiding underneath. Even though the polish is quite pigmented, the colour does not mask the holo rainbow, although the blue end of the spectrum is less visible. Like in the previous CdC polish, I don't like the brush. It is too wide for precise application, but with my new base coat and a lot of pationce I managed to get decent look (if we disregard that I couldn't get closer to my eponychium). It takes two coats for full colour and even coverage.
