Here's a bottle shot of the four stars for today's post: Ozotic 528, 529, 530 and Picture Polish Mask-a-rade.
From left to right, we have two (thicker) coats of 528, 529, 530 and Mask-a-rade over a black base, taken under direct sunlight.
The next two pictures were taken indoors, in indirect sunlight. Here we have the same polishes in reverse order from left to right. 528 (index finger) is supposed to have the same colour shift as 505 and 532 but I think 528 does tend to flash more green, compared to the other 2 Ozotics. You can see how green it flashes in the picture below.
Here you can see the warmer tones of the three polishes' colour shift. 528 and 529 are displaying their purple sides while 530 is showing its orange rage!
The rest of the pictures were taken under my table lamp. Again, you can see how green 528 goes, while 529 shows off its indigo and royal blue facade. 530 is mostly a pinkish copper indoors.
Now, this is the four polishes at their warmest. 528 is flashing copper, fuschia and bright purple, 529 flashing amber, pink and indigo, 530 flashing gold and amber, and lastly Mask-a-rade flashing amber, purple and a touch of teal. You can click on the picture to enlarge it to see everything better!
Moving on to extreme close ups, this is 528 and its entire colour shift encompasses a gold, orange, pink, purple, aqua/teal and green spectrum. It has a similar colour shift as Ozotic 505 and 532, as mentioned earlier. It flashes mostly purple to green indoors.
This one is 529 and its entire colour shift encompasses a gold, orange, pink, purple, indigo and royal blue spectrum. It flashes mostly purple to royal blue indoors and has a similar colour shift as Ozotic 504 and 534.
This next one is 530 and its entire colour shift encompasses a gold, orange and pink spectrum. It mainly flashes orange and pinkish copper indoors and has a similar colour shift as Ozotic 502 and 531.
Last but now least, we have Mask-a-rade and this one is like a party your nail! It really is like all three Elytras combined so you get a crazy complex colour shift going on.
In fact, to show you how close Mask-a-rade is to the three Elytras combined, what I have here is a comparison. I painted all three Elytras over black (one coat each of 528, 529 and finally 530 to top everything off) and then I painted three coats of Mask-a-rade over black.
From what I can tell, the difference between the two is extremely minute. The Elytras combo does flash more orange while Mask-a-rade does flash more green so it's only a matter of cutting down 530 and adding more 528 to the mixture. I also noticed that Mas-a-rade is a tiny bit denser than the Elytras but seriously, no regular person walking down the street would be able to tell the difference. Honestly.
Well, I guess we've come to the end of today's post and I'm gonna leave you with some lyrics from Masquarade (off the Phantomof the Opera soundtrack) because the song has been looping in my head the moment I painted on the first coat of Mask-a-rade. See you soon!
Masquerade!
Paper faces on parade.
Masquerade!
Hide your face, so the world will never find you!
Masquerade!
Every face a different shade.
Masquerade!
Look around -
there's another
mask behind you!
