Wet n' Wild On A Trip

Self-purchased

Wet n' Wild On A Trip is a bright, medium purple creme. It's very similar to Color Club Pucci-licious, but not as bright because it's not a neon polish. I love the color because it reminds me of jacarandas, which I really enjoy seeing bloom and scatter in the wind during spring. Anyway, I used 3 thin coats, but I think I could have gotten away with 2 thick coats. The formula was great and smooth. I didn't have any problems with the wide brush, which I love because it covered the nail so quickly! With top coat.

Thanks for looking!

Wet 'n Wild 2% Milk

Self-purchased

Wet 'n Wild 2% Milk is a very sheer nude that pulls peachy/pink on me. I believe I used 2 or 3 coats, which still didn't cover my nails. But, I like it that way! The formula was a bit streaky, as you can see, but otherwise fine to apply. With top coat.

Thanks for looking!

ABC Challenge: B - Candy Lacquer Balloons in the Air + Wet 'n Wild Ebony Hates Chris

Self-purchased

Candy Lacquer Balloons in the Air has fuchsia, turquoise, pale grey, white, pale pink, pale green, silver, and sky blue round, square, hex, and star holographic and matte glitters, along with scattered holographic microglitter, in a clear base. Oddly, the clear base now has a pink tint. It's probably from the fuchsia or pale pink glitter, but neither glitter looks faded. I used 1 coat over Wet 'n Wild Ebony Hates Chris. The formula was good and easy to control. Out of habit, I put the bottle upside-down before polishing so I didn't have problems getting out the glitter. It dried bumpy because of the glitter so I smoothed it out with top coat.

Wet 'n Wild Ebony Hates Chris is a black creme. Unlike many black cremes, this one had a blue base. I used 2 coats. The first coat was surprisingly pigmented! The formula was great as it was very easy to apply. No cleanup necessary either! :) It dried quickly (as true to claim) and shiny. No top coat.

Thanks for looking! See you on the other side of the day!

Wet n Wild Blazed + Starrily King Midas

Self-purchased

Wet 'n Wild Blazed (index and middle fingers) is a very bright, orange-leaning coral crelly, though it does have a slightly pink undertone. I used 4 thin coats. The formula was great as it was easy to apply and glided on smoothly. Surprisingly, it dried shiny, but I still used top coat. (Usually, neon-esque polishes dry satin or matte.)

Starrily King Midas (ring and pinky fingers) is a linear and scattered holographic gold glitter that can be used as a layering or full-coverage glitter. For this swatch, I decided to use it as a full-coverage glitter. It is GORGEOUS in person! I used 3 full coats with a dabbed fourth coat to fill in some small gaps. The formula was good. I was able to apply King Midas like a non-glitter polish and manipulate it easily. However, it did dry a little as I went along swatching it. I'll need to put in some thinner to restore the suspension base. It dried a little gritty so I used top coat, which doesn't damage the amazing holographic quality. :D

I purchased Starrily King Midas from Starrily's shop.

Thanks for looking! See you on the other side of the day!

Twin Mani Post: Wet 'n Wild Hannah Pinktana + Big Announcement

Self-purchased

Today, I have another Twin Mani post with Millie, from The Nail Smith, to show you guys! We had so much fun doing the mani swap post that we decided to do another feature together. :D (Actually, there is something in the works between the two of us right now!) As it turns out, Millie and I have Blue Wants to be a Millionaire and Hannah Pinktana (respectively), which are counterparts to each other. We thought it would be a great idea to wear the two today.

Wet 'n Wild Hannah Pinktana is a sheer red-violet jelly with holographic microglitter. It was one of the very first polishes I bought so it has a special place in my heart. <3 I used 4 thin coats. The formula was okay. It was a bit thin and kept wanting to pool, but I didn't have any other trouble with it. It dried satin so I used top coat.

And the big announcement is... Millie and I have decided to embark on a new project! Every first Saturday of the month, starting in August, we will be doing a monthly twin mani post. I am ecstatic about this project because I find it motivating and great for creative release. Please look forward to this project! :)

Thanks for looking! See you on the other side of the day!
