Here is a picture of the lovely box Serena comes in.
Now, the base polish that comes in this set is a pure patent black, called Serena. Now I got rid of almost all of my other blacks when I got Camelot but this one will be a keeper as application was great and the polish very pigmented.
Here is 1 coat of the Knight, 2 of the polish and no top coat.
The shine of this polish without top coat is unreal, and 'patent' is the best way to describe this colour as it does remind me of patent shoes. Again there is an Overglaze top coat in this set, this time it is an electric blue flakie called It Girl.
Here is the above mani with 1 coat of Overglaze and 1 coat of the Shield.
Again, I really love this top coat, and cannot decide whether I like this one or Blair more, the electric blue against the black is so striking, and I can't wait to see what it look like over other colours.
The set can be bought from the Nails Inc website for £20 or £18 if you are a Reward Scheme Member, here is a link to the Serena Set for you..... Nails Inc Gossip Girl - Serena.
Thank you for looking <3
This product was sent to me for review.
It looks gorgeous in your pictures!!!! :D :D I tried it over Iseult and the faint blue flash was quite interesting against the pink (although in some conditions you could see the yellow type colour of the flakies.. that didn't look so great but it wasn't that noticable IMO) I think I prefer this one to the overglaze in Blair, but I might have to wear them both at the same time to decide because they're both gorgeous!!! I prefer both of these to the overglaze in the Lily set though :)
ReplyDeletelove the layering
ReplyDeleteThank you Marie, I have still to try this one over other colours but should nice over Iseult. I can't decide which I like better either, lol <3 xx
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you too Shannara <3 xx
It was really faint compared to over darker colours, but I liked the subtle occassional blue flash :)
ReplyDeleteI love this! It's too bad the US versions don't have the Gossip Girl affiliation.
ReplyDeleteMight need to try it out to see Marie <3 xx
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks, To {Polish} or Not, I did wonder why they didn't just continue the theme :s xx
