Jaded Nail Co Andromeda

Happy Friday everyone! Big plans for the weekend? I have laundry and homework to look forward to - yay me! Hopefully I'll have time to do some Nail Art Challenge brainstorming and prep work. I've signed up for THREE next month. I'm insane, obviously. But in the meantime, I have a gorgeous polish to show you today!


Jaded Nail Co Andromeda
This gorgeous polish you see before you is Andromeda by Jaded Nail Co. I'll just give you a minute to soak this beauty in...

 

 Andromeda is a gorgeous dark blue jelly packed with different sizes and shards of holographic glitters. My lighting makes these look royal blue, but it's a bit darker in real life.

This is a pic from my cell phone, it's not great quality, but it's color accurate.


Just look at the depth! I am absolutely in love with this polish, I can't stop staring. This is 3 coats of Andromeda topped with Rock topcoat and Seche Vite topcoat.

Now for the hard part. This is my second mani with this polish. I had a very difficult time with the first one. This polish is pretty thick and it's packed with glitter making it even more so. My first mani with this ended up a gloopy gross mess. I took it off in frustration, but something told me to try once more time, and I discovered the "trick". The first coat you put on your nail has to be thin. Like, super thin. Subsequent coats can be thicker, but that first one has got to be thin, or the whole thing is a mess. Not sure why it needs that base, but it was a lifesaver!

With that said, I honestly believe that this polish is absolutely WORTH the extra effort! I am so glad I gave this one another chance. It is absolutely gorgeous, and I have received many complements on it today. I will definitely be using this polish again and again!


Here's a closeup of my thumb nail so you can see all the goodness packed in there :)
