China Glaze - First Mate

China Glaze - First Mate (CGFM) is from the Anchors away 2011 collection and is a dusky deep blue with a touch of grey.  The camera did not pick up the subtle color shade and looks a bit brighter than in real life.  CGFM is a gorgeous deeply pigmented creme! Smooth application and really wears well, I had it on for two full days and no tip wear or shrinkage.  I had to take it off because I was going to work. :( 




I was a purist again - all China Glaze - strong adhesion base coat, 2 coats of CGFM, one coat CG fast forward top coat.

You have to hand it to China Glaze, fabulous formula, beautiful color, well priced.  This month Sally's is having a 2 for $10 sale on CG.  China Glaze has got to be my favorite nail polish brand, big 3 free, no animal testing, high quality, great value, lots of colors to choose from, on trend...  easy to find, easy to buy.  Orly is a close second.

What is your favorite brand?

LOVE LOVE LOVE!  I will be wearing this year round.
