Bourjois So Laque - Part 1

Here are the first two of the Bourjois polishes I received yesterday. First up Bleu violet, an incredibly hard colour to photograph. My camera will only capture it as various shades of midnight blue, which it is in some lights, but in others it is a beautiful vibrant purple. Love, love, love it (in both of its incarnations).




Next Bleu mysterieux:




A beautiful dramatic dark dark blue-black, reminiscent of Eyeko's Vamp Polish, but better application requiring only two coats. I did find I needed to do some clean up on this one but that could be because I'm still adjusting to my little stubby nails.

I am impressed so far, the colours are so rich and thickly pigmented, requiring only two coats, and they dry quickly to a beautiful glossy finish - the bottle says 'with vinyl' and they do look like vinyl on my nails. My only small quibble would be with the brush. Like O.P.I. Bourjois have gone for a flat, wide brush. The Bourjois brush is slightly wider than the O.P.I. brush, and is actually too wide for my pinky nail (I do have teeny tiny little nails) so a little bit of jiggling around is required to get the application right on my smaller nails. However that's a very minor quibble, and I can't wait to see the final two on.
