China Glaze Summer 2013 Sunsational

China-Glaze-SunsationalChina Glaze Summer 2013 collection, Sunsational, is comprised of 6 cremes and 6 jellies in pinks, purples, peaches, blues and greens. I’ve read some reviews on these (some good, some bad), but I love the colors so I had to try them out for myself. Overall the application wasn’t as bad as I expected, it takes a bit of patience and at least three to four coats to not make it look streaky, but if you don’t mind that, you should be fine. The jellies are what you’d expect a jelly to be: sheer. Some are a bit more translucent than others, but in general the jellies’ formula and application were definitely better than the cremes.

I do want to note that neons are extremely hard to photograph, so let’s just say that all of these are much more vibrant in real life.
