This was the only bottle I picked up from this water-based polish brand a number of years ago. It was nice to put color on without the usual nail polish smell.

This was refreshing after the last mani. The luscious coverage in one coat also makes this base color a winner!

I thought these colors together would be more flattering than they actually were. This manicure was just "meh" for me.

Le Chat Dare to Wear mood - Firey Passion

COATS:
2
SOURCE:
Nail Supply House
COMMENTS:
I decided to step a little out of my comfort zone for this one as I'm not particularly attracted to shades and finishes like this. 2 easy coats then double stamped (with Desert Sunrise from the same line and Sally Hansen Bittersweet) and topcoated.

COMMENTS:
This is supposed to be a thermal polish but apparently my bottle is no longer temperature sensitive. The default color is a nice enough neutral.

This one is an oldie that I meant to wear years ago but never got round to (so much polish, so few nails and so little time!). It's every bit as lovely as I anticipated.

I think this one is supposed to have three color phases, but I never saw the extremely cold color.  Pink is warm and red is cold.
