How cool would it be if there was an entire line of polishes dedicated to the X-men, though? I would buy them all, even if they were horrendous quality. Seriously, I'm that obsessed. Anyone out there excited for Days of Future's Past? I know I am.
Anywho, I was as excited for this polish as I was for Ziv. Dark green foils are right up my alley and the press photos/swatches were all gorgeous. Even in the store, I was aching to put this on my nails to see how it would look because it looked damn good in the bottle.
This polish is a hunter green opaque base with gold and silver reflects and a foil finish. I feel like this is almost a hybrid between a foil and a glitter because there does not appear to be any glitter pieces in the polish, but the gold reflects can almost pass for some if you're not scrutinizing it from close up. Either way, the color is nice both in the bottle and on the fingers. No dupes in my stash.
The formula has a great consistency, not to thin or thick. It goes on sheer with the first coat and pretty much is opaque by the second. Drying time is pretty fast. I was able to start on the second coat of polish immediately after my first without any balding. Since there are no actual glitter pieces, removal was a breeze.
Swatches:
(natural lighting)
(flash)
(For whatever reason, this is the only flash picture I got. The bottle got all the light from the flash while the three fingers were angled in a weird way. If I use this polish again, I'll most likely update this post.)
If you have any polishes you'd like to see swatched from my stash, let me know and I'll put it in my queue.
Thanks for reading!
