Capitol Colours: Smoke & Ashes and Agro!

Hey guys!  I have two polishes to share with you from the China Glaze Capitol Colours collection!

The two I am going to be showing you today are called Smoke & Ashes and Agro.  These polishes are promotionally linked to the upcoming Hunger Games movie, which I am greatly excited about!  The books were amazing so I have high hopes for the movie.  As a huge Hunger Games fan, I was psyched when I heard China Glaze was going to have a set of polishes based on the books/movie!

Smoke & Ashes

Smoke & Ashes
Smoke & Ashes is a really cool polish that appears to be mostly black with a shimmer at first glance, but it is so much more than that!   The base is really more of a dark blue/green/black with a shimmer that shifts blue/green depending on the light it's in.  When I saw the bottle I about died it was so gorgeous!  I love it on the nail too, you can kinda see the blue tones if you look closely, but it was super hard to photograph, you definitely need to take a look at this one in person if you get the chance.

This is two coats and the formula was great! You might be able to even get away with one coat.

Agro

Agro
Agro is a gorgeous metallic-shimmery green.  The formula was perfect, I did two coats, but it was nearly a one-coater.  It really just glows on my nails! I love it!  I don't even know what else to say about it other than it's awesome and a definite must-have if you love greens.

These polishes are available in stores now and are limited edition, so grab them while they are around!

  4. I can't wait to try Agro! Agree on the Smoke & Ashes though (I wore it today too) -- ridiculously pretty with all the glass flecks but it just doesn't want to translate to camera for some reason. I mean, you can SEE it, but it's just not the same as seeing it live. Total stunner.
