I was really excited to try this color because I had heard so much about it. I like my baby blues for sure and when I saw the pretty shimmer, I thought that it would be a winner for sure. The polish is extremely sheer; I applied four coats for the pictures below, and I could still see vnl faintly. I added a few drops of Seche Restore to make it easier to work with and that seemed to help out tremendously.
I don’t have much to say about this polish. It’s nice and a great bargain but I hate vnl with a passion. I guess I could wear some granny panties to eliminate the vnl, but that just seems like too much work. Have you tried this polish before? What do you think of this color?
That's crappy this one is so thin. I saw someone layer it under Whimsical (which, btw should be coming in the mail pretty soon!! I'll tell you how it works :)) and it looked really great. I was gonna pick this up next time I'm at rite aid but now maybe I'll wait. That's the prob w SC and other cheap polishes sometimes they're like worth what they cost and that's not a good thing. That was smart to just start off with the thinner tho… I have a green SC that's not neon but behaves like one- goopy yet sheer. And sometimes you really don't feel like wearing (polish) panties especially just with a kinda run-of-the-mill baby blue. Oh well- at least it was only a dollar. :-/
This color isn't bad. too bad the formula is crappy. I nominated you for a Versatile Blogger Award! Info is on my blog, here: http://nailpolishrequired.blogspot.com/2012/05/i-…
I know…the formula can ruin it in. I am more forgiving when it is an inexpensive bottle of polish. When I get a crappy formula on an expensive polish, I get MAD!
Thank you for the nomination! You're a sweetheart! <3
I still like it despite the sorta crappy formula. It's just not a polish I will probably rush to wear again. I think I am finally sold on Whimsical. Everyone and their grandmother seems to have this polish but me!!!! I want it now.
I was actually talking about how I was looking for it on Twitter (after you talked about it, funny how that works!) and someone had an extra bottle and is sending it to me!! Isn't that nice?! She shipped it today so I should have it probably by the end of the week…? I'll tell you how it is when I get it! 🙂 I was happy with the "Popular" polish I got which is similar just different colors, but I just didn't care for the color.

I picked up a couple of these and finally got around to swatching my bottle. It definitely isn't as fantastic formula wise as all these swatches make it out to be. If I ever wear this on it's own I'll most likely find something to layer under it.
Exactly! This is a good layering polish. By the way, I've been having trouble getting to your blog. Did you move it or something? I just get to a page with no entries. 🙁
No that's weird! I haven't changed anything. :/ I wonder why in the world it's been doing that. If you still have problems, please let me know!
I figured it out. For whatever reason, when I clicked on your ID, it would send me to a wordpress site even though your blog is on blogspot. I'm so dumb…I didn't even notice it until I kept messing with it. I got to your site fine now. 🙂
