China Glaze Bump & Grind Swatches

purchased

I’m sort of in the middle of stash decluttering right now, throwing away expired products etc, so I’m finding lots of BNIB things I haven’t even tried yet, and this polish was one of them. Bump & Grind was released as part of China Glaze Texture Collection for Summer 2013, so it must’ve sat in my closet for at least a year!

Bump & Grind can be described as a cool dark rose creme, that sets with a slightly gritty finish, sort of like eggshells, but not super scratchy like Zoya Pixie Dusts. The formula was on a thicker side, but in my experience, most textured polishes are like that. In the swatches here I’m wearing two coats of Bump & Grind, with no base or top coat.

The wear time was pretty good on me, I’m on day 6 right now and there’s no chipping whatsoever, and I only have minor tip wear on one of my pinkies. I bet it will last all summer if I use it for pedicure.

PRICE & AVAILABILITY
$7.50 USA for 0.5 fl. oz. Available at Walmart, Ulta, Sally’s Beauty.

      Wahoo! So glad someone else appreciates it, too 🙂 Sounds like this whole collection was majorly overlooked by many nail bloggers last summer, because I haven’t heard much buzz about it at all.

    i prefer textures with sparkle in them but this shade is really pretty!

      I kind of agree with you, I mean nothing can really beat Zoya Pixie Dusts in terms of absolutely epic gorgeousness, and Godiva will always have a special place in my heart, but there’s just something charming about this modest eggshell effect.

    I am utterly obsessed with this color. HOLY cow it is gorgeous. And I am so not a texture person, but I think I am in love!!!

    • July 22, 2014 / 10:14 am

      Giirrrrrl, me too! I don’t even understand how I could totally forget about this polish for a year, it’s just too pretty!

    You know at first I hated textured polish but now I’m digging them! I wish it had a bit of sparkle in it though for me to buy it.

      I know what you mean, it took me a while to “get’ the whole textured thing too, but now I’m really liking those.

  5. July 22, 2014 / 2:46 pm

    Very pretty shade and this textured polish I actually like.

    • July 22, 2014 / 11:02 pm

      Glad you found one textured polish that you like!

  6. July 22, 2014 / 3:05 pm

    Beautiful! I like this color on you.

    This is kind of like the rubberized texture of the china glaze full throttle collection but… amplified!

    • July 22, 2014 / 11:03 pm

      Haha, now that you mention it, it does kinda look like those rubbers.

    I love the color but the texture reminds me of when I mess up my nails.

    • July 22, 2014 / 11:03 pm

      That was my initial thought too, it’s like I forgot to put on top coat or something… which I find oddly alluring! Am I weird?

  9. July 22, 2014 / 4:09 pm

    These are pretty! I wish they had a bit of sparkle to them though!

    • July 22, 2014 / 11:04 pm

      Indeed, I find sparkly textured polishes to be prettier too, but I love a good matte now and then.

    • July 22, 2014 / 11:09 pm

      Right? Bright, and fun, and perfect for summer!

    • July 22, 2014 / 11:08 pm

      Yay, so happy to hear that you also like this one!

  10. July 22, 2014 / 9:15 pm

    Love this color I just don’t care for textured polishes–I can’t quit touching them!

    • July 22, 2014 / 11:10 pm

      Haha, you and me both, I looove touching them, I almost find it therapeutic on some level.

  11. July 22, 2014 / 9:59 pm

    I really like the color, I don’t know that I am a fan of the texture though.

    • July 22, 2014 / 11:11 pm

      The whole textured thing can definitely be a hit or a miss. Do you like glittery textured polishes or don’t care for any texture at all?

  12. July 23, 2014 / 12:41 am

    Pretty color, but I’m not a textured gal, either.

  13. July 23, 2014 / 1:18 am

    I’m not into textured effect too but this shade is screaming gorgeous!

  14. July 23, 2014 / 1:54 am

    I love textured polishes, but I prefer them with sparkle, usually. The matte black China Glaze is an exception. This one I think I’d prefer with topcoat, because the color is gorgeous, but I don’t like the matte pebbly look.

  15. July 23, 2014 / 2:42 am

    I really really like it. I’m not sure there are many colours I would like to see that texture with but this one is definitely working.

  16. July 23, 2014 / 10:28 am

    What a gorgeous shade for summertime!

  17. July 24, 2014 / 9:20 pm

    I love the texture polish. Especially in this color – super pretty!
