So, the last one of the 5 p2 lacquers I own. This one is my favourite of the 5. It is a really dark purple, wich shows up black most of the time. It is full of glitters, and is extremely hard to photograph. I could not get it right. I’ve made for about 60 photo’s, wich is quite a lot for me. Normally I take about 20 pictures and there it’s difficult to choose wich one will be featured at the article. Now I have 40 photographs of it and none of them show how rich of glitter this one is. This lacquer has got gold, red, purple and blue glitters. The pictures I choose are the best I could get for you.

This polish was a bit thick, but after thinning it it applied like a dream. Full coverage in 2 coats.

Yellow lacquers usually dissapoint me. They are most of the time really sheer and nothing like the color in the bottle. This one really surprised me. I expected it to be another of those sheer polishes (especially because this is a pastel one) but I’m really surprised. I did need 3 coats to be opaque but thats not ordinary for a pastel polish.

My pinky has still got some blue staining on it, and you can see that with light polishes. This polish turned a bit green as you can see. Overall it’s really good. I’m really fund of the p2 polish. Can’t wait to get more.

This is a really cool kinda duochrome color. It’s p2 gorgeous. It has a purple base with silver shimmer in it. The lacquer gets more silver when the light is on it. I had a hard time trying to capture it’s beauty on the cam. It just didn’t show up the way I wanted. It gives you a good call about how it really is. For more swatches I recommened this post from Michele from lacquerized.com.

Drytime is quick. I like to do my manicures in the speedpaint way. I do one coat on all my nails and go directly on to the second (third) and topcoat. So nail 1, 2 till 10 and than nail one again. The p2 polishes are great polishes. With the second coat I do not pick up anything from the first coat on my brush, wich happens with a lot of polishes. I really dig p2, want to get more of it! For the price of €1,55 you would’nt expect much. But they are freaking amazing!

This is the second of the 5 p2 polishes I own at the moment. This one reminds me a bit of catrice Blue’s Brother. Blue’s Brother is more blue than this polish. So Cool has a bit of a duochrome effect with green and blue. It applies very smooth and I only needed 2 coats for complete coverage.

It has a nice silver shimmer. The polishes of P2 contain 8ml, wich isn’t that much. For example, China Glaze contains 14ml.

When I first noticed p2 polishes I really would like to get some of them. Unfortunately they are not sold in the Netherlands. So when a lovely girl on twitter said she could get me some when she was in Germany again I happily agreed. So, last week she bought some cool colors for me and dropped them when I was working. So sweet! I would like to thank you once again <3!

So today I’m showing you one of the bright colors she picked out. This is shockful. A really bright green. With the first layer it looked a bit like OPI’s Shrek, but this color is a bit brighter and greener than the shrek polish. Normally I don’t really like green polishes but this is an exception. I really love how bright it is. It’s not really a color to wear when I’m gonna work haha!

P2 applies really smooth and this polish needed 2 coats for full coverage, but because I can’t apply it right the first time (shame on me) I used three for having a smooth surface. If you live near a store that sells p2, buy them! They are only  €1,55 a piece.
