Polished For Days: Quetzal

Polished For Days: Quetzal
Described as a blue based afterglow with a strong green-blue shifting iridescent micro flake shimmer

"Quetzal" is from the "For The Love Of Polish"-box for June 2020. The theme is Tropical Birds. It's a stunningly beautiful green/blue polish.

The formula is a bit patchy on the first coat, but manageable. The second coat went on much better and it covered well after that. The drying time was good.

I made a discrete stamp on it. It's from the stamping plate "PY-X007". I stamped with a pink stamping polish from Born Pretty Store that doesn't have a name.

I topped it all with "Northern Lights" holo glitter topcoat from Out The Door.

Here's the end result in the sun.

I really like the colour combination.

And here's "Quetzal" alone; two coats and no topcoat. The photo is taken in the sun.
