El Corazón ~ Matte #147-neon

Neon purple matte

I might as well tell you right away: It wasn’t easy for my camera to pick up the neon-ness (neonosity?, neonfulness?, neoniciousness?) of today’s polish!

The formula was great though and the polish covered really well. I was satisfied after the first coat, but decided to add another coat to make sure that my little brat of a camera wouldn’t pick up unwanted details invisible to the naked eye.  Anyway - the drying time is really good.

Here’s two coats, no underwear or topcoat. The picture is taken in the sun and is colour accurate.

I was actually amazed over how good the formula was. Matte neons can really be a challenge, but not this one. This photo isn’t quite colour accurate. The polish is somewhat more purple than pink hued in real life.

I made stripes on it. I used a purple from Golden Rose, #37 from their Color Expert Collection. I made a wide and two narrower stripes on each nail. When that was dry I added a layer of Butter London’s Disco Biscuit. It’s a pink jelly with blue shimmer. I have had it for a long while, but haven’t used it because it’s so sheer. But today’s the day it’s going to shine on the blog.

Here’s my final mani:

I’m not happy with these last two pictures. I swear my mani looked better in real life than these photos suggest. Damn!

No. Just no. :/
