This is an interesting polish. It is highly sparkly in the bottle, but goes on matte (or suede) yet with a lot of light reflection.

I applied this under a ceiling fan, so it went on less evenly than I would have hoped.

The color is almost an orchid, but all the rest of my photos showed it purple. This is nearest the true color.

No top coat
Directions say: No top coat. I believe a top coat would change it from sueded to shiny.

I applied it with a base coat, but not a top coat.

Two coats
Good coverage with two coats.

How long does it last?
Info says it doesn’t last as long as the regular line OPI polish. I’m guessing that no top coat makes a difference in wearing power.

It lasted to the 3rd day on me, but I redid it then as there were some areas with chipped or missing polish.

The formula
I thought it was very pretty and different. I also bought a deep navy blue.

Have you worn this color?
Book Girl said she liked it the more she saw it, but was unsure in the beginning. (I haven’t worn polish for a while now.)
