I spent a few days trying to decide what base to use, but wound up going 'traditional'...black. I used the same old Maybelline I usually use as a black base. Serious spam...I took so many photos and still couldn't really do this flakie any kind of justice. At some angles the flashes are blue/green, but it's predominately yellowy-gold/orange. There's also teeny-tiny glitter and the range of flake sizes is crazy. It reminds me, and I know this sounds silly, of being a little kid at xmas, turning the dining room and living room lights off and unfocusing my eyes to blur the lights on the tree.
(UGH...bare spot!!! How did I miss that?)
(obligatory blur)
I was ready to grouch about this stuff chipping almost right away (on the left edge of my index)...but it turns out the nail broke. Meh. I needed to trim them soon anyway. This is about as long as I let them get.
This stuff is HARD to remove. Even with the Target brush tub, the flakes take a ton of scrubbing.
I wouldn't pay $15 for it (for that price I could probably get one of the NFU Oh's...and come on...no contest), but I'm really thrilled about this stuff. I need more plain creams to put this over...hmm...
I still feel like crap, so my Thursday adventure post will have to keep waiting.
