The polish itself is flakies contained in a pinky-purple tinted jelly base. Obviously, when it is layered over black, the base doesn't show up at all, and the flakies really shine on their own. As you'll see, they are quite beautiful!
The flakies go on with a nice density. I used two coats of #50 over Wet N Wild Black Creme for this mani.
As you can see, the flakies have a really interesting duochrome shift from teal/green to blue. Duochrome flakies! DID YOU HEAR ME!?
Most of the time the flakies show green/teal -- more so than how they photograph. But from certain angles, the blue really blooms into life!
Doesn't this look like shattered ice over a dark arctic sea? Like a fat polar bear sat on the ice and it shattered and started floating away.
Nfu Oh flakie polishes retail for $12.50 on FabulouStreet.com. Last time I ordered from them they were offering free shipping for orders over $25.
bahaha, i'm laughing at the fat polar bear comment..
