This is three coats of Two Fingered Salute. I used the Sephora X base and top coats with it. This color is really unique being a dusty sea foam sort of minty green with copper micro glitters.
I did this manicure at my parents' house, in very poor lighting, with no clean up! I was very worried about how it was going to turn out, but really, aside from my nails looking very ridged here, the actual manicure came out well. :) I couldn't even tell you if I needed that third coat of polish or not because of the dim lighting. Ha!
The formula on this polish was a bit odd to me. It was thick and stiff, definitely not the easiest to work with. Had I been at home, I would have for sure added thinner to it. It also seemed to dry very quickly - almost too quickly, if that makes sense.Do you like this one?

Very unique colour and absolutely stunning!
I wasn't sure about this polish when I first saw it, but the more swatches I see, the more I like it. And I haven't seen anything else like it. I hope someone has a Butter London promo soon so I can get it :)
Awww...this is so pretty. Love the color and the glitters on it. I find this classy and elegant which makes it perfect for everyday wear.
SO nice, reminds me of a turquoise stone!
So pretty!
I've never commented before, but I just wanted to say I used to have the same problems you did, with polish chipping/peeling within the first few days--no matter what top or basecoat I tried. Your recommendation about the Sephora base and topcoat was SPOT ON! I got 9 days without tip wear, and couldn't believe it. My friend gave it a shot and she had about 5 days....so I guess it really depends on the person, how hard they are on their hands and their body chemistry.
Still, THANK YOU FOR FINDING MY HG COMBO! :)
Anonymous - I'm so happy I could help!! Hooray!!! It's exciting not to have to change every day or two! :)
