3 coats
Colada Fizz has silver glass flecks in a sheer light blue base. I'm not really sure what this one smells like. It just seams to be a sweeter smelling nail polish odour. The base is really sheer, after three coats my nails have just the slightest blue tint. It kind of looks like my nails are frozen.
I don't have a sky blue polish (I'll have to fix that) so I layered it over the lightest blue I own - Ulta3 - Blue heaven:
wow that one is really sheer! It looks icy over Blue Heaven :)
ReplyDeleteI'll be interested to see what sky blue polish you end up with. I've discovered a need for pale pastels with all my recent layering polishes but it's so hard to find pale colours that aren't streaky and need lots of coats.
I think I might try to pick up Ulta3 - Spring Shower if I can find it. It looks like a nice pastel blue. When I did my Easter mani I realised I didn't have many pastel colours. I'll have to fix that before next Easter. :)
DeleteI bought this one, I was sad because it was so sheer, but I layered it in the exact way you did and was happy enough. A pale blue might be the way. I might try it under CG Electric Beat... I thought it smelt like that faux coconutty smell...
ReplyDeleteI was tossing up between Blue Heaven and Electric Beat as the base. Yeah that might be the smell! I'll have to smell it again when I get home tonight. :)
DeleteI couldn't find Spring Shower anywhere, but I got the NYC dupe (Blue Bird) from Woolies - maybe with all the new ulta3 outlets there'll be more around :) Otherwise, join me in frankening everything! :D
ReplyDeleteI haven't noticed it in the Ulta3 bins, I hope it's not to hard to find. I almost got out my frankening stuff but decided it would be too much effort. :P
DeleteLove that layered over the blue! I'll have to smell it for myself. I love pina coladas!
ReplyDeleteMmmmmmm pina coladas! :)
