China Glaze Hanging in the Balance


Good morning!  Yesterday it snowed here in the Phoenix area so I decided I needed a bright happy mani.  I mean, snow?  Really?  People around here freak out if it drops a few rain sprinkles so you can imagine how crazy snow makes it.  My facebook feed looked like the weather channel.  So today I have the gorgeous blue that is China Glaze Hanging in the Balance from the Cirque collection with It's a Trap-eze as an accent.  Hanging in the Balance is amazing, although I think it may be just a touch greener than my pictures show.  This is two coats.  The formula was a tad runny but super opaque.  I can't wait to wear it this summer on my toes.  It's a Trap-eze took four coats to get rid of the vnl I had going on.  I will definitely be layering it over something else next time.  I saw it on another blog this morning layered over a mint and it was really pretty.


It was sprinkling when I took these pictures so please excuse the water drops.  I ended up with quite a few more polishes from this collection than I thought I would.  Do you have a favorite from the Cirque collection?

Until next time,

Sara

*Santa brought me Hanging in the Balance in my stocking.  It's a Trap-eze took me three trips to Sally's to find.  That's what I call dedication.*

  1. Oh goodness! This is beautiful. And nope, don't feel sorry for you about the snow...coming from someone in Minnesota. I bet it wasn't even in the single digits as far as the temp??? :)

    1. Oh man single digits would shut down the city. My inlaws are in MN and I refuse to visit in the winter. I'd have to buy a whole new wardrobe for all of us. My son's idea of a warm jacket is a hoodie.

  5. I haven't been to Sally's in forever so I didn't even know about any of the new China Glaze collections. I'm such a slacker! Anyways, It's a Trap-eze is very pretty. I think I need it!
