Catrice Iron Mermaiden

I hope you are enjoying your Friday! 



Catrice Iron Mermaiden is a duochrome polish, mainly shifting between silver, purple, and green. In person, it is mostly a silvery purple. Visible brushstrokes are unavoidable, but they are more subtle than some. Please ignore the bubbles. I did a layer of gelous to help make this last through working truck. Gelous bubbles on me occasionally. This is three thin coats to make it opaque.

I wish this had not bubbled. I think I would have enjoyed it more.

Catrice is not sold here in the United States, so I'm unsure what the retail price is. You can find stores that sell them from their website.

Catrice Dirty Berry

Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope everyone is enjoying their day! I do not have a traditional pink or red mani to show you for Valentine's Day, but rather a lovely purple polish.

With topcoat





I am in love! Dirty Berry is a beautiful dusty purple with scattered holo shimmer. It applied like a dream, absolutely perfect in two coats. Super glossy as well. The first six pictures are without topcoat. 

This is the first Catrice polish I've every used, and one of the only two I own. I received both in my Valentine's gift. I could not be happier with my first Catrice experience.
