Sally Hansen Miracle Gel ~ Flash-ionista

Sally Hansen Miracle Gel ~ Flash-ionista

Sky blue jelly with pink and blue shimmer and blue microglitter

I found today’s polish on special in my local drug store. It’s super hard to resist a good bargain so in the shopping basket it went!

The formula is sheer, and I used three coats to build up opacity. The drying time is good. The pink shimmer is so beautiful in the bottle but it doesn’t really show on the nails; bummer!

The skull stamp is from the stamping plate “Celebration BPX-L007” and I stamped with El Corazón’s stamping polish “Fuchsia”.

This is the final manicure including topcoat.

I just love those little skulls :D

This is “Flash-ionista” on its own; three coats and no topcoat yet.

It suddenly struck me: What if Flash-ionista is an effect polish and isn’t meant to be worn alone like I did?

I grabbed a black swatch stick and painted a layer of Flash-ionista over it. And BAM! Look at this beauty:

Now the pink shimmer shows, and isn’t it just beautiful!

Here are the things I used for my manicure.

I actually quite like the look of Flash-ionista on its own but I must admit that I am loving it over black. I’ll definitely try wearing it over other colours as well. What a great little gem of a polish!

Number of coats: 3 (or 1 as a topper over another colour)
Drying time: Good

Finish: Shimmer and microglitter in a jelly
Overall impression: This is an amazing effect polish! Wow, that shimmer is fantastic!

Buy again: Yes
