China Glaze St. Martini

Hey guys! Hope y’all are having a great start of the day. Today’s post is about a shade that has been around for a while and is part of China Glaze’s Core Collection. Here’s China Glaze St. Martini.

China Glaze St. Martini

St. Martini is part of an older collection of theirs called Caribbean Temptations. I have always wanted to pick a few up from this collection that made it to the permanent line. I was sent this when my polishnbags twin was purging. I could see why. This is a pretty pink frost. Frosts normally rank really low in both our lists and this one’s no exception. While I don’t abhor it like most frosts, I’m not ready to welcome it into my collection just yet. St. Martini is not a strong frost to my standards. It behaved quite nicely with the brush strokes and formula was only a wee bit on the watery side. If it was more stubborn with the brush strokes, I would’ve passed this along into my swap box. For now, it’s just sitting in the middle of my unknown pile. Shown is 2 thin coats with no top coat.

It’s a beautiful pink, but the brush strokes! Gah! Do you own any frosts or dislike them as much as I do?
