piCture pOlish Kryptonite: aka G'day, Gorgeous Green Polish!

And by gorgeous, I mean STUNNINGLY, jawdroppingly, eye-bulgingly good looking.

This is piCture pOlish Kryptonite – a collaboration shade, and whew, what a collaboration! I have three coats on for these photos, topped with China Glaze Fast Forward. It looked opaque in two coats, but the third really gave it depth.

Here’s a strange story: when I got a bit of money in, I had my eye on Demeter and Kryptonite from the collaboration series, and so went out, from a couple of different e-tailers, and bought them. BUT… I bought two lots of Kryptonite. Moral: it pays to keep note of what you are buying if you go frothingly mad buying polish. Second moral: if you’re going to buy two of the same polish, make it as beautiful as this one!

It is such a rich emerald green in the shade…

..and in the sun it has those stunning holographic flakes.

Dry time was pretty average on this one, not fast, but not too slow either.

I couldn’t take my eyes off this. It had a pretty short life on my nails though, chipping moderately quickly. That’s not abnormal for me, though, but I think next time I’ll layer it over something else, and see if that extends the wear.

Then, to disguise those chips in a hurry (the next day), I added a franken  glitter top coat:

This was a glitter mix, I added the white hearts to the mix, the rest was already there, I just added it to the suspension base and it’s all holding up quite well. One coat, I don’t believe in stinting on glitter

This was so Christmas-y I think, pity I didn’t have it then! And I loved the way the gorgeous green and holo of Kryptonite was still very visible. And the half-hearts. Hehe half-hearted nails.

Have a great day!
