Colors by Llarowe meets Dance Legend’s Spot It
- In a stamped marble
mani
I am always
intrigued when new types of polishes show up on the market. Spot It is Dance
Legend’s fairly new line of polishes. They’re supposed to be acting a bit like
crackles – just with bubbles (or spots) instead. I have bought two of them, a
red and a white. I have already tried the white but I didn’t quite get the
desired effect: Check this post out to see how that experiment
went. Back then I tried “Spot It” on tacky polish but I have now seen videos
where the effect show up when you apply it to wet polish so that’s what I tried
today.
I used three
polishes: Colors by Llarowe “Living on Borrowed Time” and “Healing Waters” and
of course Dance Legend “Spot it 02 White”. I made a few drips of each polish on
my silicone mat, drew a few lines in the polish with a thin dotting tool, dipped
my stamper in the mix and transferred it onto my nails.
Did it work?
Not really. I mean, the colours work really well together but I didn’t get the
desired bubbly effect on my nails. I had a bit of the effect on the mat so the
polish works, but it doesn’t really count when it’s not on the nails :D
Here’s the
final mani including a layer of topcoat. I am holding Healing Waters on this
picture.
I really like
the mix of colours. I’m holding Living on Borrowed Time on this picture.
Here are the
three polishes I used.
I am not
giving up. I want to make Spot It work. I just need to play with it more. Any
tips will be highly appreciated, thank you.
It looks pretty but of course it's a shame you didn't get the bubbles.
ReplyDeleteI soooo want those bubbles but I don't know how to get them! :D
DeleteOh I can see a galaxy on your nails! ♡
ReplyDeleteYay sweetie, thank you! :)
DeleteThe bubble effect did not came out, but the colors go perfectly together and create a glaxy nail art !
ReplyDeleteTrue! I like it but I don't understand where my bubbles are :D
DeleteOmg!

Thank you so much ♥
DeleteI absolutely love the effect ♥
ReplyDeleteI am so happy to hear that :)
DeleteHave you seen Anna Gorelova's video with this polish? Maybe this description will be helpful:
ReplyDelete'All these top coats only work over a freshly applied, still wet polish. I recommend applying them immediately after base colour in random strokes, using the same technique as with crackle polishes – you don’t need to try and cover the nail evenly. The top coat spreads over the base colour within several seconds, giving you some time to add a couple of strokes if necessary.'
Here's a link to the swatches and video: http://nails.annagorelova.com/dance-legend-spot-it-collection/
That is very helpful, thank you so much!
