Catrice Genius in the Bottle Swatches

May 15, 2012May 15, 2018 wp_overpolished

My friends recently went back to Poland to do some family stuff and she brought me back some goodies! Among them were 2 Catrice Cosmetics polishes. I’ve never heard of the brand before but they sure are pretty! Here are swatches of Genius in a Bottle, which is a Chanel Peridot dupe.

It’s sooo pretty. Genius in a bottle is a green/gold duochrome with decent coverage in 2 coats and full fancy coverage in 3. I’m not sure if Catrice is available anywhere in the US, but I looked up their parent company and it’s the same company that makes Essence.

Honestly this polish is gorgeous! I can’s stop looking at my nails. Speaking of which…did you notice how short they are now! It’s weird, but it makes typing on my phone much easier.

Are These the Best Nail Care Tips Ever?

1. Try not to wear too tight shoes or any tight footwear.

Shoes that are tight can choke out nails, and can trap sweat and dampness. This is a standout amongst the most vital nail care tips that can help you maintain a strategic distance from diseases. Before cutting your nails, soak your toes in warm water and salt. soak-toes-in-warm-water-and-salt

Toenails are super thick and this makes it very difficult to cut them. Your nails will absorb the salt and water, become soft and you can cut them easily.

2. Try not to nibble your nails or the skin around them.

Constantly biting your nails can and the skin around them is awful for two reasons-you are ingesting hurtful microscopic organisms that can get you sick and you are uncovering the sensitive area around your nails to microorganisms that can cause diseases. This can prompt puss development around the nails and difficult contaminations.

3. Do not use nail polish remover more than 3 times a month.

Avoid nail polish removers that have acetone in them. They are a little expensive and you spend more time cleaning your nails with them, but they are much better than the acetone brands. This is because acetone can dry out your nails so it is best you don’t use it

4. Avoid chipping your nail polish off.

Chipping your nail clean is awful for your nails in light of the fact that the DND nail polish comes out with the nail's top layer. This will make your nails unhealthy and ugly.
