MAC Jade Dragon




OK, even tho I want Nars Zulu VERY badly...I think I'm going to be happy owning Jade Dragon instead. It's not a jelly like Zulu but it's so FREAKIN gorgeous, I'll be happy with this green and nothing else.
For a start it's a ONE coater. It's so pigmented and rich in color...it's not like any other color I own. The formula is perfect, and the green sparkle is divine. Not over the top sparkle like ChG Emerald Sparkle, it's a beautiful classy muted sparkle. I'm in polish love. After my disappointment at Bad Fairy yesterday, MAC has more than redeemed themselves with Jade Dragon.

This was my first attempt at a Ruffian style, not the best attempt so no clicking on photos to make them bigger please! I used China Glaze 2030 for the base coat, 1 coat of Jade Dragon with 1 coat of Seche QD.

    That is gorgeous! From your pictures, I think I actually prefer Jade Dragon to Zulu.

    Oh, this is purely lovely! I don't see any imperfections at all. Infact, I think you did a wonderful job with the application. As for the color, its beautiful. I love how classy the green polish is.

    Zara. Mmmmm, it's a close call. Maybe I still need both??!

    Madd Crafter. Macro is so unforgiving, it's looks much better IRL! Thanks for your nice comments!

    Brittany. Gold is especially nice with this one. I debated Mint green but thought I needed to go classy.

    Beautiful! I got the Imperial flower from this collection which is also amazing! I posted as my colour of the week a while ago.
    Did you use a mask to Ruffian?
