Hey guys! I'm back with another much anticipated post care of Etude House's new Sweet Recipe Collection. I did an earlier haul on this + other things from the Sweet Recipe line and was super duper excited to try this NOTD out. This will be just the first post on an entire installment of posts featuring Etude's new Sweet Recipe Line.The Ice Cream Nails line has been much raved about for its cute and innovative packaging. I never would have thought to make a polish line shapped like icecream cones! The colors are so cute and pastel-y. The two polishes from the line that I'll be using today are the Sweet Recipe Ice Cream Nails #1 MintChoco Chip and #3 Apricot Candy.
They look quite nice on their own, but as I do in real life, I thought they'd look a lot better with a little extra something added to them. And what goes better with ice cream than chocolate fudge? I used one of the polishes from Etude House's regular line, DBR401 Bravo Brown, a nice thick chocolate brown color.
The result were the cutest nails I've done on my hand in a very long time~ I'm totally in love with my nails right now and I almost feel like I could eat them!
The chocolate fudge gives a new unique twist on the everyday french tip and is really easy to do with a thin brush, dotter or a toothpick! I found that the consistency of the Bravo Brown polish was thick enough and had the perfect texture to act as a chocolate polish.
I used to be a nail biter and have since quit the habit, but dang, these nails make me want to bite them all over again haha.
MintChoco Chip is a pastel blue with sea green undertones and perfectly mimics the ice cream flavor with its chunky glitter. I find that when I apply it on, the glitter is applied just sparse enough to give the right effect. It's mixed in with some iridescent pink, periwinkle, green and blue glitter. Apricot Candy on the other hand is a very flesh-toned pastel with red, orange, green, yellow and red-violet glitter chunks. If you're not one for really loud statement colors, this is a nice neutral polish with a little splash of color :)
What do you guys think? Have I sold you on the polish yet? And that's not even making a dent on the amount of products I have to share with you.
Coming up is a review on the most popular item on the line so far, the Baby Choux Base endorsed by Sulli of f(x). You can catch a preview of the post below ;)
