I've already posted a brief intro to these HERE.
I wish all nail polishes were like this.. Without the pungent smell (please make sure there's good aeration when you paint your nails). Unfortunately, water based nail polishes aren't all that great so I'll have to bear with the smell.
As you can see, it's pretty sheer after 2 coats =( It's slightly more opaque IRL but you can still clearly see where the nail bed ends. Application is streaky but it dries quite fast. The colour itself is okay... Perhaps too dull for my taste.
One odd thing I encountered was that my top coat (Essie) started peeling off after the first day. I did not have this problem with the Apricot shade but I was using a different top coat then. Thin flakes were dropping off like nail dandruff =_=
