Barry M: Poppy - revisited
Raspberry red shimmer that dries up silky matte

I hasn’t even been a year since I wore “Poppy” last. But I was going to a party and wanted to wear something pretty and glittery.

The formula is still good and the coverage is still amazing. It’s a one coater but I used two coats to make sure I gave the polish the best conditions to shine. The drying time is good and the polish dries up silky matte.

I dabbed some glitter by the base of each nail. The glitter is Sation’s “Prettiest Player”.

This is the final result, including a layer of topcoat.

I love this, it’s sooo pretty.

And here’s “Poppy” alone; two coats and no topcoat.

Plum purple with strong blue shimmer
 
The formula of "Berry Potter & Plumbledore" is good. I needed three layers for desired opacity and the drying time was good.

I placed a silver sticker on each nail. Then I dapped a bit of silver/black glitter randomly onto the nails. The glitter is Sation's "Diamond Diggin' Diva".

This is the final result, including a layer of topcoat. The photo is taken in daylight, no sun.

Here's "Berry Potter & Plumbledore" alone; three coats and no topcoat. The photo is taken in daylight. The shimmer is really pretty.

And here are the things I used today.

I bought this polish because of the pretty shimmer, I think it's really awesome. I'm not crazy about three coats though.


Number of coats: 3
Drying time: Good
Finish: Shimmer
Overall impression: Really nice shimmer. I'm a bit disappointed in the necessity of three layers
Buy again: No
