Not me. Well, I wasn't until I realized that a local polish seller has brought in China Glaze's Halloween 2012 collection - Wicked! :v
I had wanted to grab the whole collection but my wallet threw a huge temper and threatened to go on strike. :f In the end, we reached a compromise and I walked away with two out of six polishes: Immortal and Cast A Spell.
Immortal. 3 coats.
A beautiful slate gray with a hint of sage green. Greys do not usually catch my eyes so I wasn't particularly interested in Immortal initially but I was blown away when I saw the swatches online. It is filled with tiny silvery flakes and, you'll never guess, blue and pink/fuchsia shimmer! It is not that obvious in my pictures but the shimmers really come to life when they catch the light. Super pretty. <3
And I won't lie, I bought this partly also because it reminds me of:
Beautiful song, beautiful polish *happy sigh* :d
While I was looking at swatches of Immortal online, I read that this may be similar to Claw Polish's Phantom. They have the same silver, blue and pink shimmery particles but I *think* Immortal is a shade greener and several shades lighter. (Read: yes, it is justified to have both! ;) )
Cast A Spell. 2 coats (potential one-coater!)
A blackened olive green base
See what I mean by "packed"?
The formula for these are quite different.Immortal was the trickier one. It is thin and tends to pool at the edges of the nail. Next time, I'll be sure to let the polish dry a little more in between coats.
On the other hand, the formula for Cast A Spell was divine. The consistency is just right and the polish practically flows onto the nails by itself. It is also very pigmented and if you're careful, you can just get away with one coat.
So, are you in the mood for Halloween yet? :brow
Which polish from Wicked are you eyeing?
