China Glaze’s Cherish

This color was actually very pretty. I don't have many greens, and a paler neutral green would be a nice addition to the collection - so I purchased a bottle in early 2011. I don't know if it's the age, or the formula for this particular color, or both; but of all the Romantique colors that I own, this one's the thickest and has the worst spreadability. The brushstrokes showed up very clearly, and a second thinner coat didn't really hide them. I'll have to try thinning this out a little bit and see if that doesn't help with the final appearance.

The color is gorgeous, though. China Glaze has recently had a go at releasing the OMG-colors-with-Kaleidescope-holos, the Tronica collection. Perhaps they'll re-release another metallic collection for spring 2012, including a pale green, a pink, a true yellow, and a deeper purple.
