Nfu Oh ~ 056

Nfu Oh ~ 056
A dark green flaky glitter that reflects blue and bright green. 

Here’s another one of my newly bought Nfu Ohs, the green one. I love green nail polish, especially the deep green, almost vampy ones. This one looked like such a colour.

After admiring the pretty bottle, I started applying the polish. I could tell right away, that this wasn’t going to be easy. The first coat was very sheer, so I kind of expected lots and lots of layers before being satisfied. I didn’t want to layer it over another polish until I had seen how it looked on its own.

Applying was easy. It did take forever to dry though. After three layers it started to look almost acceptable, and decided that four coats would be it. And then something happened. I ruined the nail polish on one of the nails. Oh no!

So I decided to take this pic:

And then take it all off again and try with a coloured base coat. I went for Wet n Wild 226, a dark green shimmer polish. It actually surprised me. It was so easy to apply, and it covered almost perfectly in two layers. Here’s how it looked:


And then to the real deal: The Nfu Oh! I applied two coats, and was satisfied. I must admit that I was somewhat disappointed with the flake. I mean, the green was gorgeous and all, but honestly, the green should come from the Nfu Oh, and not the Wet n Wild, right? But after having seen it in the sun…:



… it grew on me. I just love this! I just wish it was spring or summer so the sun was out more!
