Sinful Colors - Fiji

Sinful Colors - Fiji
4 coats
Poshe Top Coat

Fiji is a gorgeous purple shimmer. This is one of my original nail polishes. It does take 4 coats to reach full opacity though but it's worth it. I don't know if this colour is still available because I bought it a long time ago. It takes a long time to dry but this might be because it's so old. A fast drying top coat like Poshe or Seche really helps. I wore this a few months ago and the day after I added a coat of Nubar 2010, I loved the look so much I did it again so I could show you. I only used one coat of Nubar 2010, the flakes were more opaque in real life they seemed to disappear in the photo. Some did ask me to swatch this one, sorry it took me so long to post it!
Did you notice I used my right hand for the swatch?

      Thanks, it was so awkward to take the photo. I've got a digital SLR camera and it's shaped so that you use your right hand to press the shutter button.

    Wow, the color by itself is just amazing, and then with the flakes on top, it just makes it that much more stunning! Great quality pictures, by the way! May I ask what camera you use?

      I'm not sure which flakie is my favourite yet. They all look great. 2010 was my first flakie. :)
