I did have time this afternoon to play with the one I mentioned to you this morning. It's China Glaze Limonyte. This is a polish I've really, really wanted for well over a year, and have just been unable to get. I even got ripped off on ebay for it in the past year! I'd resigned myself to never having it, then ran across a little discount etailer, saw it listed, and added it to my cart. As I was checking out with my one polish, I tried to add a second one to give to you when I published it, but got the message that "Quantity in cart exceeds the quantity available." I got the very last one! My fingers moved at lightening speed through the checkout lest someone else was trying to buy the same thing! I didn't really believe I'd get it until it showed up in my mailbox about a week later.
I tried to use it right away, but since it's chock full of all three of the Big Three, it wouldn't dry with a B3F top coat. I was able to find a big refill bottle of Seche Vite, but not a single little bottle to pour some into to use it. I guess I threw them all away when I switched to Diamont! Since I should have some on hand for the oldies, I stopped over at Sally Beauty Supply for a little bottle of Seche Vite on Saturday and got a free chemically base coat with it for use with old polishes. I guess my nails are doomed to being orange...
The polish had thinned a bit with age and took four coats to be completely opaque, and I notice that Seche Vite doesn't dry as fast as Diamont, but for Limonyte, I'll wait! Here's the partly dry manicure, about half an hour after I finished it.
