Wet n Wild Wild Shine Black Creme & Color Club Lazer Pink
At the end of the day, I'm actually torn: keep this manicure or do my nails in Stellare Notte? The Borghese calls, but this one is so much fun...

Some polishes should not be matted. Ever.
No, seriously. It looks so much better in the picture than in real life. In real life, the color (about a million times brighter) just looked like some random rubber toy had melted onto my hands.
I'm a matte lover. I got my first bottle of matte polish in 1989 (this cerise Revlon that, wow, I still dream about -- I lost the bottle in my parents' house somewhere, found it again a few years later, only to have it disappear again, so perhaps some day, it will be unearthed, and I can hug it and kiss it and call it George), my next batch a decade later, lather, rinse, repeat. Matte About You had, until this point, made every faded mani a little better (I'm resting my nails and hands from frequent swatching, as I've been canning, and the constant contact with citrus rind is murder on my mitts), but ACK! I wish the picture captured the skin-crawling wrong, but trust me on this: it failed to work in a spectacular fashion.
Note to self: next time you feel the urge to extend a BT manicure, just add a layer of See Ya Later Sailor or something.
