Ceramic Glaze Island Paradise Collection Review

Today I have a review on some fun, tropical nail colors by Ceramic Glaze. If you haven’t tried this line yet you are missing out on some seriously gorgeous shades that are perfect for bright summer manicures and pedicures.

Ceramic Glaze is created by the makers of China Glaze and their Island Paradise Collection is available in 24 playful colors. The polishes are formulated to be available in both shiny and matte finishes however despite the label "long lasting shine" the shades were all matte. Simply applying a top coat will result in glossy nails if you prefer that effect. 

Aside from the brilliant color these polishes dry very quickly which is big selling point for impatient home manicurists like me. By the time I am done painting my second hand, my first hand is dry and I can add my fast drying top coat and be out the door!

The colors apply as vibrant as they appear in the bottles and although the formula is a tad thin I had no trouble with application. Because the polish dries so fast you do have to be quick with making corrections but two coats was enough for opaque coverage.

The shades I have are: 400 Exotic Dragon Fruit which is a lively bright pink that is great for a pedicure! 402 Watermelon Cooler is a pretty blue that reminds me of the Caribbean and Moji-Toes is a neon green polish with a touch of yellow. I added a glossy top coat to enhance the colors and I recommend using a good non-chip, long-wear top coat if you want your manicure to last a few days.

In Canada the polishes retail for $11.00 each exclusively at Shoppers Drug Mart.
