Hare style

Today I have for you another one from the indie polish line, Hare. This one is called Medusa Luminosa and the polish maker named this collection after jellyfish. I have 2 from the collection right now (this one and Bury the Hatchetfish) and hope to get Atolla as soon as I can. It's always sold out. But on to this one. I could not, even after almost 50 pics get an accurate of the color. Purples are the hardest to get anyway and then add glitter to it and it's almost impossible. The last one here (although a bit blurry) is the most accurate colorwise, in the others it looks almost too sapphire-ish. But it's not. It is actually a true medium purple with sapphire and teal iridescent glitter. Also some golden purple micro glitter in the mix. When I ordered this, I was expecting more of a sapphire like my camera picks up, that was how the swatch showed on my iPad. So I was surprised when it arrived. This polish is a little tempermental (a bit thick and gooey) and it took 3 thick coats for opaque coverage (Poshe base and topcoat). I learned that if I closed the cap and shook between ever other coat, it worked better. So, so beautiful but not a polish you can slap on in a hurry as it needs to be babied and coaxed a bit. It's also a glitter eater but nothing my Poshe couldn't fix. Poshe is the absolute best with taming hungry polishes!
