Originally, my go to one coat black polish is a England Camelot. However I've found I've been shying away from using black bases because I don't want to use it up. It can be sold out often on web sites and so I was afraid to use up all of my precious.
So when I heard Cult Nails Nevermore was an equally awesome black, I picked it up during one of their $5.00 sales (which are awesome, seriously, follow them on Facebook to be sure you know when they are coming!).
This polish most definitely delivered. A one coat black, with ease of application AND fantastic shine. One top I put one coat of HITS Phenomena Moonbow, a gorgeous color shifting glitter top coat. There are so many different colors that flash in this manicure, I can't even tell you!
Fantastic pairing and with 2 simple, easy to apply coats I was base coat to top coat done in 20 min! (For me? This is good, usually I spend more time cleaning up my nails than painting them!).

Gorgeous! Moonbow looks familiar. Do you know if it's similar to any of the Ozotic Elytras?
ReplyDeleteIt is similar to Ozotic 528, but Moonbow is more dense. You can see a comparison here (I don't have Ozotic 528) http://thepolishhaven.blogspot.com/2012/04/hits-phenomena-and-ozotic-elytra.html
DeleteI freaking LOVE black polish, and one named after a line in The Raven is a must have in my book. The glitter's nice, too, but that black... yumm. :D
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm a sucker for a good one coater black. Love them!
DeleteThis is such a stunning combination! All of the colors in the glitter are so pretty!
ReplyDeleteAnd they shift too depending on the angle and the light!
