This one was positively horrible! By far the worst brush I have come across! Take the SH Complete Salon Manicure line's flat brush, widen it, and add more brush hairs. Oh, and then bring in a rodent to gnaw on them for awhile. If the SH brushes are like painting your nails with coffee stirrers, this was like painting them with a virtual OAR. There was no way this was going to be a "neat" mani, and it wasn't. I'm really quite sad about this. I adore some of Spoiled's colors and do have a couple more to swatch for you. But the brush is probably bad enough to keep me from buying any more unless they make a change.
Anyway, sorry for the rant. The formula was actually okay. It was a little streaky on the first coat (plus I was trying to control the brush with little success), but it evened out nicely with a second coat. The color is still beautiful. It just may be a bit difficult to get it on without a battle royale. I guess you have to decide if the color is worth the hassle. This one, for me, just might be. I see some decanting in my future.
I just came across your blog. I am lovin' it! I have bought just about all the Spoiled polishes. I am slowly going through them. I also have to say the brushes are a MEH (big meh!) for me. I wipe off as much polish as I can and I pull off the loose strands with a papertowel. All may go well for 6 nails and then another loose strand. It's rather annoying and sad, since for $.99 - $1.99 isn't bad for what you get out of the bottle. I think it may be aggervating my eczema ... Though it could be stres too.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to have you here! I know a lot of people decant their Spoiled polishes, and I will most likely be doing the same, too.
