China Glaze - Electric Pineapple

Hello everyone,

Hope you've had a great weekend!

I guess I'm a little bit late with my swatches, people are already swatching fall collections and me, I'm not even close :) But, hey, we're still in July, I don't want to think of the fall yet! (even though we've got here a weather "de merde". One can easily think we're in October... pfff :) )
So, in order to get some positive thoughts and remember we're in the summer... I'll swatch for you today Electric Pineapple from China Glaze Inslad Escape collection (summer 2011). These pictures were taken a week ago, while we still had some sun and blue sky... *sigh*...

So, Electric Pineapple is a gorgeous yellowish green, very summery, very joyful.But,  I haven't found anything electric about this polish, is just bright.I think it look a lot like last year OPI's Fiercely Fiona. I don't have that one to do a comparison. I hope someone will do it, beacuse I'm really curious to see how these two would look side by side.
The application was pretty OK, the formula is good, but a little thick for my personal taste. 2 thick coats are enough for full opacity.
Here I'm wearing 2 coats of China Glaze Electric Pineapple + 1 coat of Seche Vite:








Here I went a little fancy, and got into that "picasso mood" :) ... I only wanted to try out the scotch tapes technique and my dotting tool. ;) Not the best I could do, but anyhoozle, this is how it came out :



Oh yes, I used Sinful Colors-  Innocent, Zoya - Apple and Color Club - The Lime Starts Here.

And before going to bed, for the fun, my sleeping bunny (oh, no, not "sleeping beauty" ) ;)


Snorrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :D
LOL! ;)
Good night everyone!

BIG HUGS!

  8. @jasmin: Thank you Jasmin! Well, this is not completely yellow, it green-ish yellow ;) But I'm not a fan of yellow polishes myself. In my collection I only have 2 yellow creams (Orly - Lemonade and Deborah - Yellow Fiz which are.. dupes! LOL :D)

    @imfeelingnail-venturous: Thank you so much, sweetie! The pinkie and the ring are my favourite too ;D As for Ghitzou, my bunny.. I really love him and I love posting pictures of him. He's adorable, really.

  9. Cute! I think I remember someone saying that Electric Pineapple is between Who the Shrek Are You? and Fiercely Fiona. And Ghitzou looks as sweet as ever. :)
