product review : sula paint and peel nail polish

whenever i'm in sephora and ulta, i get this strange feeling of "i HAVE to buy something." it's like a sickness almost, i don't want it, it just hits me and it must be cured. so the other day in ulta i spotted the sula paint and peel nail polish i had read about here and there and decided to give the olive green color a go. and the results?

well. first of all, it required more than three coats. after the third coat i stopped counting, but each coat came out incredibly sheer. then, the color dried completely different from it's wet form. i'm not sure if it was just my color, but it happened, and rather than olive green, it was this weird black brown combo. and THEN, after it dried, it had this awful rubbery feeling that i felt every time my nails brushed against anything else. and the next morning in the shower? it had already started the peeling process. which was not cute. so eventually i just peeled it all off (which was fun, and it all came off in big chunks) but it took off some of my nail layers (not an obscenely large layer, just little bits of the surface) and it left a not so pleasant result. to sum it all up, i don't really recommend it. no matter how cute the packaging is. and the packaging is pretty stinkin cute.
