As you all may already know, Whimsical is quit sheer, so I chose to layer it over top of Hard Candy Sky, and I think they are the perfect couple :) I used 2 coats of each :)
I then added a coat of Essie Matte About You, and LOVE the effect. It also got 2 thumbs up from Jack!!
Ooh love it matte. Makes me think of birthday cake icing. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's very pretty, it's a very soft colour.
ReplyDeleteI like it :)
I so need Whimsical, it needs to come out in the UK soon! :) It looks beautiful matte!

Soo pretty matte! I need to try this :)
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful!! I would have missed this post if I hadn't saw the twitter update. I thought I was already following you on gfc! No matter, following now! :D I think Whimsical looks even better with matte! I wish we have more awesome Revlons here too. :(
ReplyDeleteOoh looks like candy! :D

Matte or not I love this color.
ReplyDeleteI love matte everything! That milky blue looks great matte :)
ReplyDeleteIt makes me think of gumballs
ReplyDeleteYour nails always look great, I love all the different thing you do with them. Every time I paint my nails they chip within a couple hours and no later then the next day. Is there something I can do to prevent this?
ReplyDeleteDo you wrap your tips with both your polish and top coat?
DeleteI also had the 1 day chipping issue until I started investing in and trying out various base coats (better quality base coats I should say!). I have the best wear so far with Zoya (Anchor and Get Even work very well for me). Orly Bonder works pretty well, CND Sticky is ok, but not great. I just bought a bottle of Poshe' yesterday that I'm going to try next.
DeleteI love the color and the simple glitter. matte adds the sexiness
ReplyDeleteI love matte's on other people (like this one.. amazing!)... I can't bring myself to actually mattefying any of my manis though :S
ReplyDeleteOh you should try it! It's nice for a change :)
Deletelove the matte and glitter combo!
ReplyDeleteNow THIS I love!! I've been seeing posts about Whimisical and had not been impressed with it. I love what you did with it!
ReplyDeleteAwww, thank you so much!
DeleteI agree with Stargirl...this color makes me think of birthdays. Looks great!
ReplyDeleteWow, I think Revlon only sells its most traditional colors around here (sadface)
ReplyDeleteLooks so awesome either way!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty!!
ReplyDeleteahhh love this! Looks YUMMY! Like cookie icing! lol ;)
ReplyDeleteI adore matte nails. Even more, matte finish over glitter! LOVE THIS! xo, Rita
ReplyDeleteIt still looks pretty with a matte finish! I swapped for this and can't wait for the package to arrive and try it myself :)
ReplyDeletemm looks like birthday cake! this is adorable<3
ReplyDeleteOhh!! I now need this polish, and Essie's Matte About you!! Such a great post!! Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a dupe for Deborah Lippman's Up In The Air... last time I did my nails with it, it looked very similar!
ReplyDeletexo, alison*elle
You are correct, it is a dupe, and a much cheaper one, lol.
Deleteim so obsessed with matte nails lately.. its weird some people hate it:/? eh
ReplyDeleteYeah I don't get the hate either, oh well, I love it :)
Deletethat's cute
ReplyDeleteooh it looks so cool matte!! too bad my matte top coat sucks :(
ReplyDeleteLove the color combo!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! It's good to see you back :)
ReplyDeleteLooks fabulous! So glad your back! <33
ReplyDeleteWhy you always write 'quit' instead of 'quite'?
ReplyDeleteBecause :)
DeleteNever would have thought to try GITA or Whimsical matte I have to say...but I like it for a change up. GITA is a huge fav of mine and I wear it a ton. I have a back up bottle of it since I know how DL likes to just stop making shades and move on quite fast often times. I have Whimsical - it's close if not dupe - just seems I have more trouble getting the glitter onto the brush then onto the nail from the brush with Whimsical - but toothpicks or tweezers for both can come in handy.
ReplyDeletei HAD to get Matte About you, I am an obsessive matte-er. My favorite is putting it over glitters or holos, it shows the colors better!
ReplyDeletevery pretty....i have not been able to find Whimsical ...yet!!
ReplyDeleteWhimsical is so pretty! I ordered mine on Ulta's website last night. Yay! If anyone is having trouble finding it, check there!
ReplyDeleteIt looks so good mattified! I have to try that!
i just want to say, I'm so glad you're backkk! you inspire me to keep going.. love what u do!
ReplyDeleteDamn. Too bad I bought GITA awhile ago. This looks just like it and is much cheaper. Oh wells. It's lovely either way!
ReplyDeleteCan I tell you how happy I am to see that you're back doing your thing? I love seeing all the nail looks! Thanks chickie!
ReplyDeleteMy Ulta.com order containing Whimsical and Matte About You was delivered last night!!! :)
ReplyDeleteOoo! I love it matte! So pretty! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone!!! I'm def glad to be back :)
ReplyDeleteI have owned Whimsical forever and it never dawned on me to mattify it. Gonna be doing that just as soon as I dig it out lol.
