Today, I have for you one of two polishes I got from China Glaze's Capitol Colours Collection (inspired by The Hunger Games). Riveting is a vibrant orange with a gold shimmer that looks to be lit from within.
I have been on a bit of an orange kick lately, and as soon as I saw the swatches for this polish, I knew I had to have it. This is the most intense orange. Its base is a darker orange with lots of coral and red tones, and combined with the hoard of gold shimmer in it, makes the color look like it's glowing. Depending on the angle, it shifts from a saturated coral-orange to a sparkling golden-orange. If you are an orange-lover, this color is not to be missed. :-)
This is my first China Glaze polish, and I'm really impressed with the application and formula. The consistency is not too thick, not too thin, which makes for easy application of thin coats. The brush is medium in length, with enough stiffness that it doesn't flop around, and enough softness that the brushes spread out easily. Dry time is conveniently fast, and you need just the standard two coats to achieve opacity.
You can find Riveting at your local nail salons, at beauty stores such as Ulta and Sally Beauty, and online at select beauty retailers.

This will not be your last China Glaze, it's (for me) the best brand ever !
ReplyDeleteRiveting is my orange favorite too, it's sooo lovely - you should try it with a matte top coat some day, it looks really cool, you can see pics on my blog, if you want..
From what I have seen of China Glaze, I really like their polishes too. Thanks for the suggestion of using a matte top coat. I checked out your blog, and you're right... it looks amazing! I'll have to remember to try it out myself. :-)

I wanted to get this colour and fast track. Unfortunately they don't sell this collection here for some reason :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like the color, but it's a real bummer that you can't get it where you are. >.<
