Hey guys!
How has your day been? Mine's been good. I haven't really
done much, just bummed around home and read my book. I'm currently reading
"Les Miserables". Are any of you reading good books?
Anyway, onto the review. Today I have a gorgeous China Glaze
polish for you from the Giver collection that was released a few months ago.
This polish is called "Capacity To See Beyond". I thought this polish
suited both the film and the book really well, so I'm glad this polish was
included in this collection. Capacity To See Beyond is a pretty sky blue creme
and it's the colour I've been searching for forever. I'm so glad I finally have
it!
The typical bottle shot
Capacity To See Beyond does have quite a thin formula, so it
ended up being quite prone to cuticle flooding, so be careful if you do end up
getting this colour. Also, the dreaded blue staining is another thing to be
wary of with this polish. I'm not too sure of how it would have held up with
just one coat of base coat as I only left it on long enough to swatch it, and
it didn't have enough time to settle, although my friend did try it without
base coat, and she text me a day after she applied it and let me know that she
had incredibly stained nails, so definitely be careful of that! Now, Capacity
To See Beyond's opacity. Hmmm. Not the best. I mean, it was a two coater but
the first coat was really really sheer, but the second coat managed to even it
out to make it opaque. However, it's redeeming features include it's super
shiny finish and it didn't take too long to dry.

Capacity To See Beyond didn't have the best formula, but
it's the colour I've been searching for for so long and I'm going to say good
things about it. If you have a colour similar to this, then I wouldn't suggest
that you run out to buy this polish, but if it's something unique to your
stash, then it's a good investment as China Glaze is a very affordable brand
and they have really pretty colours.
