Oh, Estee Lauder. I really like Surreal Violet and Ultra Violet, so when I saw you had some new colors late last year, I got both of them. I haven't had time to try the purple one yet (Extravagant Night) but I put on the other one recently, and I have to say I was disappointed. I guess I knew there might be trouble, since in the bottle it looked gold, and gold is not my thing, but I could see pretty sparkles, and with a name like Extravagant Pearl, I thought maybe once on my nails, the gold would be just a sheen on a flattering pearly base color.
Well, no. On my nails, I got gold. I don't much like gold on me, so I didn't care for this. It felt old fashioned somehow.
I will admit I liked it better in direct sun, when I could see a lot more of the sparkles.
At three coats, I still had a hint of visible nail line, so perhaps I'll try this as a layering polish, maybe over something like China Glaze Channelesque to cool it down.
beautiful

ReplyDeleteUau!!! Gorgeus!!!. I don't have any nail polish of this brand but for sure is a gorgeus colour:)
ReplyDeleteOooh, I really liked it from the bottle colour, but it looks so different on the nail! It's still pretty, but now what I expected! I think it's a nice gold though :)
