Thank you, Norma! As a bonus, here are some pics of her wearing Neon Rosebud with a Rapture accent:
Look at all of those colors!! Man oh man I wish I had these in my collection.
Tomorrow I'm still looking at Janae and the topcoat comparison. After that it looks like we're back to the queue with essence Dopey. lol
Ohhhh... *takes a good look at all the flakies... dies of pure admiration*
ReplyDeleteAren't they gorgeous?! @_@ I'm so jealous.
Delete*lazy lazerton was lazy* <_< Sorry!! Okay so what I shoulda told you was that I put two coats of the flakies over Orly Royal Velvet. But honestly? I don't think the basecoat mattered. It totally disappeared by coat two. According to ILNP these are completely opaque at 3 coats and I totally agree. I tend to do medium/thick coats and that way only 2 coats were needed to make this polish opaque.
ReplyDeleteThey went on like a DREAM and the dry time was pretty good!
They came off so easily I almost fainted lol. Like seriously they *almost* came off as easy as a cream polish (I used fake Zoya remove+ to take these off)
I donno if I'd call these 'flakies'. I think of flakies as being large irregular glitter (not those awful Mylar flakes but the glitters that are bigger than regular glitter). These looked more like glitter to me, mind you after two coats all I could see was shifty goodness @_@
But Lizzy? Neither Neon Rosebud or Rapture could hold a candle to our beloved Mutie ;)
hehehe No worries. The more polishes, the more of a pain it is to throw a post together. ;)
DeleteOMG Mutie... *swoons* ZOMG You should try one coat of Supernova over Mutie!! @_@
You're so right!! If this was one or two polishes I woulda whipped up a post no problem. But a whole team of em? *falls over*
DeleteOOH supernova over Mutie! I gotta try that one out!
So many pretty pictures! I ordered a few of these yet have not found time to try them. I have that problem at lot.
ReplyDelete@_@ You must! I need my fix! hehehe
DeleteIf it helps, Norma says they're really easy to remove. ^_^
