Zoya Phoebe is a neon blue with micro shimmer. It dries matte. I love the formula on Zoya, but they can be a bit thin. Phoebe was thin (but not watery!) and took a few coats to apply. I ended up used a base coat, 3 coats of Phoebe, 1 coat of top coat, and 1 more coat of Phoebe. 3 coats were needed for opacity, but I always do topcoat sandwiches with my matte polishes to make them last longer.
My photos are pretty photo accurate, but the sun was setting as I took these so Phoebe should be just a tad more neon/bright than in these photos. Onto the pictures!
I love Phoebe but I had a hard time with her balding on the second and third layer - you got it so nice and even. I wonder how a matte top coat would look over it....
ReplyDeleteWow that's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love Phoebe but she is a bitch to take off - she stained my nails for weeks! I swear I still see hints of blue on my naked nails (and that was with 2 basecoats)!
ReplyDeleteIt stained by nails a bit too! I have 2 coats of OPI Nail Envy on there. It's only been off for 3 days so we'll see how long it stays stained.
