I'm finding it interesting to see how a pigment can look one color dry and different in nail polish. I used a a pale celery green pigment to create Sweet Pea, which translated to gold somehow. To me, Sweet Pea is a term of endearment, and that's what popped in my mind after I mixed this.
This is two coats topped with a coat of Gelous and Seche Vite Fast Dry. Three coats may have dealt with the visible nail line, but I was too impatient for that. I'm liking the iridescent shimmer and soft color! I've had it on for 3 days now and still have no visible tip wear. Considering I'm using the same base for all the frankens, I wonder if different pigments/glitters factor into wear time? The experiment continues....
Disclaimer: I purchased all of the products used to make this polish.
