Nicole by OPI Notorious! Neons...

Summer around here can come and go from one to day to the next, but there is something about neons that can put me in the summer mood regardless of the weather. Nicole by OPI has released two neon mini kits Notorious! and Scandalous! Neons. Today I will show you the Notorious! Neons mini kit...


The Notorious! Neons kit contains a white base along with Green, Fuchsia and Orange Neon. For these swatches I used two coats of the white base followed by three coats of each of the following neon shades:

Index finger: Green Neon
Middle finger: Fuchsia Neon
Ring finger: Orange Neon


All these shades are fairly sheer making them ideal to be layered over white for maximum effect. Considering the amount of white base in the mini bottles, if using this kit frequently, it would be the first to run out. The white base can be easily substituted with any white polish. The Green Neon was a bit streaky and may have been better with another coat to even out the coverage. The other two shades were very easy to apply. They all have a slightly frosty appearance as they dry, so I used a top coat for these swatches...



I couldn't resist taking a few photos with the black light. The green shade on the index finger was by far the brightest glowing as you can see in the photo, however, in real life I would say the Orange Neon (ring finger) was my favorite under the black light...



Thanks for looking!
