I decided to pop this on top of China Glaze's
Queen B. Oh dear. :-|
Now this polish looks gorgeous in the bottle......but....... It's very hard to use, very hard to apply and really, really slow drying (I gave up timing after 10 minutes). It's really thick and awkward to apply the flakies evenly. It's also really hard to get the flakies onto the brush! I had to dip the brush in and out several times to get a good amount on the brush! It's a very clumsy polish. I ended up having to dab them on! I only photographed this so no idea if it lasted long. Nice idea but poor quality and hard to use :-( I've got a few other colours from this flakes range - I'm in no hurry to use them! Any advice on how to get a decent finish with this sort of polish?

Oh my, you gave four points too? It must have been a really bad nail polish. It looks pretty though. I have some difficulties with some Orly toppers, but not as bad as these ;)
ReplyDeleteIt was pretty bad quality. It is pretty that's the annoying part hehe! I've never tried the Orly toppers - just the polishes and they seem good quality :-)
DeleteI don't know this W7 brand.
DeleteIt's fairly well known brand over here. Cheap as well hehe :-)
DeleteAtleast it looks nice :) maybe they'll improve it
ReplyDeleteYeah that's true! Hopefully :-)
DeleteIt's a pity it doesn't have a good formula - the flakies look very nice!
ReplyDeleteI know that's disappointing! :-)
DeleteIt's a shame the formula sucks cos it's a really pretty polish, very icy looking!
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is and yeah it does! :-)
DeleteIt looks nice! I'd try sponging the glitters on, perhaps that's easier :)
ReplyDeleteYeah. I might try that with the next one - thanks :-)
DeleteI love the result, it seems that you have crystals in your nails. xoxo
ReplyDeleteHehe yeah it does look like that :-)
Deletethese are lovely and ice recalling and this mani looks fab, great color combo choice
ReplyDeleteGlad you like it. Thanks :-)
DeleteShame as it's so pretty in the bottle...
ReplyDeleteI know :-|
DeleteAt least it looks super cool in the bottle...
ReplyDeleteThat's true! I had higher hopes :-)
Deletegorgeous flakies! :)
ReplyDeleteSorry I completely forgot to get back to this!
DeleteYeah it is :-)
