China Glaze nailpolish in Velvet Bow (review + swatches)



China Glaze nailpolish in Velvet Bow (direct sunlight)

 Velvet Bow is a gorgeous burgundy red, but not dark enough to be mistaken for black. Rather vampy. This is the shade I was longing for. Unfortunately, to my surprise the polish was extremely difficult to apply. Although I wouldn't call the consistency thin and runny and the polish wasn't sheer at all, it applied very unevenly. The polish was dripping in blots and applied in horrible stripes and smudges. I needed four coats to even out the polish and get the desired result. This is a big surprise cause I normally like the quality of China Glaze polishes. I'll definitely continue using it for the sake of colour, but I believe there are much better dupes out there.
