P2 ~ Need Some Speed, topped with Polished For Days ~ Pixie Dust


P2 ~ Need Some Speed, topped with Polished For Days ~ Pixie Dust
Red toned purple crelly topped with iridescent colour shifting flakies

I was in the mood for purple and pink today so I grabbed an old P2 that has been sitting around for a while: "Need Some Speed".
The formula is okay for a crelly, I guess. I used two coats for my nails today. I got away with two coats because I topped it with a dense flakie topper - I should have used three coats if I wanted to wear "Need Some Speed" on its own.

Anyway - two coats of purple, topped with one coat of "Pixie Dust".

The stamp on top of that is from the stamping plate "Nicole Diary-L018". I stamped with a neon pink stamping polish from Colour Alike called "We Can Boogie".

Here's the final result.

I really like the look of this!

This is two coats of the purple base colour "Need Some Speed", topped with one coat of the flakie topper "Pixie Dust".

Here's "Need Some Speed" alone; two coats. I should definitely have added a third coat if I wanted to wear this alone.

Here are the things I used today.


I really like the end result today and I must say that the flakie topper is a gem. I really like the way it makes other polishes sparkle and shine.



Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Good
Finish: Crelly / flakie topper
Overall impression: I love these polishes together. I'm not a fan of crelly polishes as a rule
Buy again: No to the p2, yes to the flakie topper
