Yea I know, maybe not the right season. But while I'm at it, a comparison between
Nails Inc - Belgravia and
China Claze - There's Snow One Like You. Both are white texture polishes as you can see.
Nails Inc - Belgravia - Jelly with sparse on texture, white hexagons and prismatic hexagons(which never look prismatic on the nail).
- 4 coats (needed 5 on some nails).
- Very difficult application, almost fishing for the texture and there is some dabbing needed to not get bald spots. In general less textured and not as "tipex white" as TSOLY.
- Drying time is about 35-45 minutes. Quite similar to TSOLY, but I guess the many coats increase the drying time.
- Cost; about $11 (CAD) (At the time I bought it, it was comparable to about 8 euro)
China Claze - There's Snow One Like You - Jelly/crelly filled with texture and white matte hexagon glitter.
- 2 coats
- Also difficult application, the formula is thick and "lumpy" with the texture/glitter, however much easier than Belgravia. Much more textured and more white than Belgravia.
- Drying time is about 30 minutes which is normal for textures (imo).
- Cost; about $4 (US) (At the time I bought it, it was comparable to about 4 euro)

So, overall I prefer China Claze - There's Snow One Like You. I know it has more of a cottage cheese feel or like really fluffy new fallen snow, but I like that. Also, TSOLY is half the price of Belgravia, and also TSOLY need half the amount of coats, which should mean that it would last twice as long (if any one would empty a bottle..). I didn't experience any major tip wear with any of them (however I wrapped the tips) but the only thing I didn't like with both of them is that the "texture balls" are gray toned plastic (as for all textures, but here it shows more). After a couple of days wearing for both TSOLY and Belgravia the gray plastic shows a tiny bit after some wear and tear (since there's no top coat), and makes the white look a bit "dirty" in an unpleasant way. Belgravia beeing less white from the beginning has an disadvantage there.
So, do you have any of these? Which one do you prefer? Do you even like matte textures? ;)
