Fail Fail Fail!!

I feel like utter crap today. It may be because I have been sitting in front of the TV for the past two days doing nothing and I am quite possibly in a Gilmore Girls coma. Today I decided to try one of the new neons from the China Glaze Poolside Collection. I thought Yellow Polka Dot Bikini looked like fun, so I pulled out all of my manicure implements and got to painting.

This polish is one of the worst ones I have ever put on my nails... here is the story.

I had heard that neons were difficult, but I have come to feel very confident in applying difficult nail polish. I put on one coat, and kind of felt worried, but I have seen polishes that were bad in the first coat. So I pushed on. And on and on and on! After 5 coats and still no beautiful opaque highlighter yellow nails, I gave up! I removed the polish, and was left with horrible stained hands. My hands looked like a yellow Bic highlighter exploded all over me. But, I am a polisher! I had to try something else! So, I painted a disgusting coat of China Glaze's White on White first. I have heard that a coat of white is sometimes helpful. I could do a whole review on White on White too... but that is for another day. Anywho... I think if I could have gotten an opaque coat of white the polish would have come out ok, and I might save that experiment for another day. But even after the coat of white, this yellow polish was atrocious. I removed the polish again and am still trying to get the yellow stains off of my hands. I'll let you know when I am flesh toned again.

Moral of the story... stay away from this polish! Run run run! Today's polish of the day was a complete fail. Now that I have tried this one, I plan to try some of the others from this collection. I hope the pinks don't let me down. I love pink!

Tomorrow's polish will be better I promise.

I have posted a picture for fun, just in case anyone doesn't know what this polish looks like.

Here is Yellow Polka Dot Bikini. If this is all you see in this post... RUN FAR AWAY FROM THIS POLISH! Below in the whole collection. When I look at this picture I get afraid. But I am going to try some others, as not to give up on this collection.See you tomorrow guys!
