Oh Duochrome, how I love thee... - Sally Hansen Ultra HD polish in DVD

Hello Everybody!

I am still a bit tired ;-) Yesterday we watched the England vs Germany soccer game with a couple of friends and the celebration afterwards actually was going on way past midnight. So I got up late today and I am feeling a bit headach-y, hah, I wonder why? *evilgrin*

But since this is not a soccer but a polish blog, let's talk about the really important things, shall we? ;-)
Today I just had to try out a new Sally Hansen Ultra HD polish that I just got last week. The shade I got is DVD, an absolutely gorgeous icy blue frost shade with a light pink-purple duochrome effect. LOOOOOOOOOOve! The only downside was, the polish is really sheer, it took me 4 coats to get it to be sort of opaque. weird, because I thought the HD serious were supposed to be quite color intense. Whatever.
Still, this shade is so gorgeous I just can't stop raving about it, The finish reminds me of the OPI Suedes when you add topcoat. I really dig this frosted look. The pink/purple duochrome effect is fairly sutle, but adds to the icy look. I will definitely use this polish for some layering experiments, can't wait to try this over dark blue or an intense pink polish.
But I know what you guys are waiting for...here comes the picture evidence!

Overall I have to say that this is definitely a must have, since it is truly unique for a regular drugstore polish. It does sort of remind me of RBL Scrangie polish, but I wouldn't say it is a dupe. I will go ahead and get a few more of the Ultra HD polishes. So stay tuned for more!
