Sooooo....this shade is from Essie's Summer 2016 collection. I don't like to judge what is appropriate polish shade based on time of year, but I'm getting a fall vibe. Good transitional shade. Great formula, two coats. Topped with Julep Freedom Polymer quick dry top coat.
Creamy white shade from Essie's Summer 2016 collection. Two coats for full opacity. Topped with Julep Freedom Polymer quick dry top coat.
Ok....so I caved. I used a white base and definitely achieved a neon-like effect. Such a beautiful, bright orange that I didn't want this to go wrong. So I have on one coat of Zoya Purity and two coats of Essie's Mark on Miami. Dries matte. Topped with Julep Freedom Polymer quick dry top coat.
....oh no...not another one from the Neons 2016 collection by Essie. They do recommend white base but....no....not doing that. Neon should be neon without the support of a white base. Do you agree?
Essie does recommend using white as a base coat for their Neons 2016.....but I'm a rebel....not doing it! Sadly this polish really needs it. This is three coats and not that vibrant.... (sigh). Topped with quick dry top coat HK Girl from Glisten and Glow. Next......
Bright blue - somewhere between cobalt and cerulean - polish from Zoya's Ultra Brites collection 2016. Two coats used. Could have used three. They suggest a white base coat but I opted for Orly's Ridgefiller base coat as that provides some off white opacity. Topped with Out the Door Northern Lights quick dry top coat. I have a feeling this might stain my nails....
Bright salmon shade from Zoya's Ultra Brites 2016 collection. They suggest using white base coat (not a fan of this suggestion ) however i used Orly's Ridge Filler base coat. This provides some opacity while providing base coat coverage. Two coats, great formula, dries matte. I used HK Girl quick dry top coat.
This cobalt like shade is.....wait for it.....one of Zoya's Ultra Brites 2016 collection. I did apply white base as recommended. Nice blue...but not too bright.....
