I realised I haven't shown you guys a proper swatch of Nfu Oh #61 so hereeeeee you go!
I heard that you can also use a matte top coat as a base coat for these Nfu Oh holos but I decided to try NailTek Foundation II instead. Granted it is a base coat but it does dry matte so I thought the effect would be the same.
This is one coat of #61 over the no base cat (pinkie), Nfu Oh Aqua Base (ring and index) and Nail Tek Foundation II (middle).
As you can see, with the Aqua Base, #61 applied SOOOOOO MUCH BETTER and already looks more opaque and holo. The matte base coat didn't work as well as I had hoped though.
And on goes more goes to make #61 opaque...
TADAH! Holo fest!
Sadly, this is the dud batch and it isn't as holo as it used to be. Still, it's holo enough to make this holo addict squee! I just wish I got on the holo bandwagon a little earlier. :(
But it's okay, my FNUG holos are enough to satisfy my holo lusts when I need a crazy pow wow holo. Other than that, #61's a great subtler holo! :D
I actually like how it looks without basecoat! Isn't that silly! LOL!
ReplyDeleteWith or without the aqua base, it's *almost* the same but having to do one less coat = saving polish = saving money and time! :D
