Nail Trends: Autumn 2011 - Below Deck & Devotion

Today we have two by China Glaze - Below Deck and Devotion.
Below Deck comes from the Anchors Away collection and is a lovely creme polish. One of those ever-popular purple/grey shades. Apparently, this was supposed to be a replica of Channelesque, and although only seeing photos, they do look pretty similar! It's high gloss and very pigmented! Can wear with just one coat.

• Application: 9/10
• Pigmentation: 10/10
• Coats: 1/2

Devotion comes from the Romantique collection and is a metallic polish. The colour itself is a frosty silver with a lavender undertone. I've noticed with this polish that you get the brush lines in the polish, I like this effect, however some people may not.

• Application: 6/10
• Pigmentation: 7/10
• Coats: 2/3

What are your opinions of this? Let me know!

China Glaze - Below Deck Review

Hello lovely ladies! Here we have China Glaze - Below Deck. Coming from the Spring 2011 collection 'Anchors Away' it's a beautiful cremé polish. As you can see in the photos, the colour varies depending on the lighting, sometimes looking more of a smoky brown colour and other times looking more like a violet/taupe.
This has to be one of my favourite lacquers in my collection. It applies evenly and is super pigmented which means you can get away with only applying one coat! However, just to be on the safe side and to hide those tiny little streaks we all sometimes get, I suggest applying a second coat.

Application - 9/10

Pigmentation - 10/10

Coats - 1/2
