Well... Some small notes before my swatch:
- I really-really DON'T paint my nails with dark colors when they are long. This is something I do NOT like...
But... This is the first time in my life that my nails are so strong and they don't break.. I have them long for a long time now.. But....
Its winter, Christmas is coming, and I can't really have them french manicured all the time, or pinky summer colors...
If you don't like long nails with strong colors, yeah , we are on the same boat, so... just an exception for this time...
- The brand is called Seventeen. I always thought that it was an international brand, but only recently I realised that I haven't seen them anywhere else except Greece. And its bad cause its a good brand, have a big variety of colors (especially in nail polishes) and have some of my favorite products (eg. the concealer stick)
So......
Seventeen nail polish no 504 :
I ll be honest here. I just wanted to buy a black nail polish and I was in hurry. The blacks were not in stock (didn't notice) so I grabbed what it looked like black in my eyes ....
When I got home, I realised that its not black. Well it is, but also has shimmery red in it.!
So, I tried it ! I loved it in instance, and I think that is a very suitable color , especially for that period of time....
Its a black color, with red shimmery. What is amazing, is that in the sun, it gives the gold effect, that I love..!!!
With no direct light and semi-direct light
Direct light (the gold effect) :
A small Greek note:
Εαν θέλετε , μπορώ να κάνω τα swatches και στα Ελληνικά!
That is a gorgeous colour, wow!
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήThanks! It really is! And it was mistakenly bought! This brand has an amazing range of colors!
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήThat's a very nice color! I love the effect of the glitters!
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήI LOVE this colour!
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήI'm with you about the long nails. But I often love long "vampy" nails, then for some odd reason, go through a period of time when I love really short nails as well. It totally depends on my mood and how nicely my nails are growing also! :)
Thanks for the follow!! :)
To be honest, I don't -always- like long nails, especially in the winter.
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήUsually I have them short for a while and long for the most of part (I have short fingers so I think longer nails look more feminime) . But mostly goes this way because one of them breaks, so I have to cut them all. This time, they were really fragile so I started an intensive treatment, so now, they are hard as rock! The good is that they don't break at all! The bad is that I am feeling ''pity'' to cut them very short (stupid,huh?) so I have them long (like this) or medium sized enough for french.
The color is fantastic, as well as the rest of this brand. Its really a pity its not available in other countries. It costs only 4€ in here.
Thank you for the follow as well :) I am a newbie and you made me happy !
It really is! the red shimmery to gold looks amazing :)
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήthanks !
Oh wow, this is such a great shade! I love its multi-dimensionality! It's hard to find great nail polishes here in my country. The great ones are often very expensive! Sigh :(
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήOh thanks! I love it too for the same way. Its not just black, neither black with just sparkles , its... Great !! This one its not available at Greece only I think. Its a bit over 4 euros (5 dollars?), so it is cheap. I don't if you can find seventeen (that's the brands name) in an online shop. I might do a giveway with greek products in the future :)
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήI shall try and look for it :D Yay! Looking forward to your giveaway! :D

I really feel sad cause they are not available out of Greece. I have tones of their polishes, many eye-shadow trios, my fave blushes....
Yeap, I ll be waiting a bit, since I am new to the blog world, and then have a giveaway. But to Greek products that they are easy to find (for me) , and not available to others.
[...] So.. Yesterday I went to Hondos Center (kind of Greek version of Sephora – more popular in Greece than Sephora- ) to buy a nail polish of my fave brand seventeen. [...]
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφή[...] this brand, which has a great line of nail polishes ( I reviewed one here on my first post) , is only available to Greece. Its dissapointing because it has some very good products, with good [...]
