Mentality Polish ~ Neon Blue
Opaque
Neon blue matte stamping
polish
Just like yesterday I’m trying it as a regular polish and as a stamping
polish over both black and white.
So again: I painted my pinkie and my pointer with the neon blue. The
polish covers really well, it is a stamping polish after all. I applied two
coats, because this polish dries so fast that I wasn’t able to apply it evenly
enough in one coat. I applied a layer of topcoat, and that helped making it all
look good!
Here’s what the Neon Blue is about:
Now to the stamping. The Neon Blue dries just as a fast as its neon
green sister, so I had to work just as fast to make it work. I needed to apply
a thick layer onto the stamping plate, scrape and in the same movement: pick up
the polish with the stamper. It’s a challenge, but it can work.
I made a few fails before I got the look I was after, but I was glad to
see it work over both black and white.
Verdict:
I love that Neon Blue Opaque works over both black and white underwear. It’s
a really pretty blue on its own, but it does require topcoat to even out
irregularities made by the fact that it dries so fast. I don’t mind topcoat at
all. Again; it’s not a polish for beginners into stamping because it does
require some really fast working.
EDIT: This polish is no longer in my possesion. I sent it back after I heard about the issues with Mentality's base. I wouldn't dare to wear it again.
