I'll start out by showing you these flakies over a black base of OPI Who Are You Calling Bossy?!?. Swatches are one generous coat of Glam Polish (index finger to pinkie) Comet Storm, Star Shadow, Dreamscape, Eternity Dragon. Application of all of these flakies is perfect. They brush on easily and one coat provides great coverage over a solid base. Topped off with a top coat...
Same order of Glam Polish flakies over a white base of OPI Angel with a Leadfoot. Index finger to pinkie is 1 generous coat of Comet Storm, Star Shadow, Dreamscape and Eternity Dragon. Swatches are with a top coat...
These flakie top coats can be layered to build up to full opacity. At four coats as seen below, the smile line is no longer visible, however the flakies never fully wrap the tips which is why I prefer them layered over a solid base. Additionally I found that they needed a little extra drying time between coats to avoid the polish getting goopy.
I think these swatches really show off the difference between the flakie shades. Once more these are (index finger to pinkie) Comet Storm, Star Shadow, Dreamscape and Eternity Dragon. Swatches are with a top coat.
Comet Storm - primarily purple flakies with a big sprinkle of blue, green, red and more.
Star Shadow - primarily blue and green flakies with a sprinkle of purple, gold and more.
Dreamscape - primarily green/gold flakies with a lot of purple, red, blue, copper and more.
Eternity Dragon - primarily golden copper flakies with a sprinkle of blue, green, red and more
For my full swatches, I chose to layer 1 coat of each over a coordinating base color. All swatches are with a top coat...

Beautiful, my favourite is Star Shadow :-)
ReplyDeleteI naturally go for the purple first, then blue....I liked them best over complimentary colors, so I'd probably do the same as you with those boring old crèmes... :D
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful!!! FYI if you sponge on the flakies (like you would a gradient). The sponge soaks up a fair amount of the clear base and you get full coverage to the tips with a quicker dry time and less bulk since you don't have four layers of polish. Top coat to seal it all in! Try it you'll like it :-)
