Distressed Neon nails with Formula X


First mani using my haul from the States. Formula X neon distressed nails. I used White Matter, Turbo (yellow), Kapow! (blue) and Hyped (purple). The colours are part of the Electrics collection. 

First up, I was surprised to discover the neons where shimmery, rather than creme. The white is a little thick, but it's white and whites are annoying to put on. The blue was the most disappointing. It developed cracks in some of the patches. A later play with it painting a whole nail proved to be tricky too.

But... having these polishes in my collection makes me feel extra special. After all, there are no Sephora stores here!

  1. Oh my gosh, that looks so good! I love how you did the brush strokes going in different directions, I'll have to give that a go.

    1. Thanks! I love how this looks complicated, but is actually so easy to achieve. I'm loving bright colours, winter schminter.
