COMMENTS: Is there such a thing as a neon pastel? I felt like this color fit that description (and quite a few people commented on it), but I like it. I got the new Bundlemonster plates and decided to be brave and try some stamping. Alas, my stamped pattern in white was too subtle, so I tried outlining it with a white polish. Nice up close, but the stamped pattern still wasn't visible from afar. Ah well...
up close - before topcoat:
That definitely is a pastel neon! It's a shame that the stamp was too subtle. The design is really pretty!
ReplyDeleteit's amazing!
ReplyDeleteOooh I love this color--very unique; it looks so pretty on you! I have to get my butt down to LA. I think I like it better without the stamping.
ReplyDeleteLOVE that green, I've never seen a colour like it and I want it lol can't get Kloeancolor here though :(
ReplyDeleteI love this pattern! The design is so "arabesque"...
ReplyDeleteThat color rocks!
ReplyDeleteVery nice manicure, I love the design.
ReplyDeleteReally awesome shade! I will have to look for this one. I actually like the stamp, but I can see it would be subtle from far away. It's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteOh I like it! Very subtle yet elegant!
ReplyDeleteOooh those look so cool. I never paint my nails and if I did they'd never come out looking as fab as that! lol
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to check out more of your posts...just randomly found your blog today.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I think you were spot on when you called it a neon pastel! I love the konading too!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colour. I like the subtle stamping. It's like a secret thats there for the whole world to see, if they look for it.
ReplyDeleteOooh, I like that pattern. Apparently there is such a thing as pastel neon. Ha! Who knew? /shields eyes
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness, that pattern is so pretty -
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely pattern!!
ReplyDeleteYou have many very pretty nails here. I added you as my favourite list :)
I've been away for a few days and look what you go and do? This is beautiful! I love the color choices and I LOVE how your "lace" is inside the bold lines.
ReplyDeleteSoooooo pretty! I don't think the stamping is too subtle with the white outline - I guess from far away I can see what you're saying, but hey, nails are little from far away anyway, right? :) It's GORGEOUS and you are super, super creative! <3
ReplyDeletethe stamp pattern in white on your nails with the green makes it look rather lace-like in appearance!
ReplyDeleteAwesome color and I love the design!
ReplyDeleteI agree with everyone about how awesome this color is, but it has the worst formula I've ever tried. Ever. And I have used hundreds polishes in my time. Save yourselves the heartache and go with China Glaze Highlight of My Summer instead, it's very close in color but has a decent formula, according to reviews I've read.
ReplyDeleteI actually didn't have any problems with this one, and in fact used it as part of a franken later. We may have versions formulated at different times. Thanks for mentioning the alternative dupe for those who might have struggled with this though!
