But then, maybe I'm not on the wrong coast...because after I realized my mistake (about 16 minutes ago, which, too late to change horses now, so imma just keep on...), I looked at the label, just to verify I had the name of the polish right, and saw that SpaRitual actually lists Optical Illusion as a glitter! So I'm on the right coast again! But it really is more of a shimmer...so I don't know if I got this one right or wrong...
I am sick, and I am confused! >_<
SpaRitual Optical Illusion was a bit thin, needing 3 coats to reach opacity (and 4 to be swatch-ready), but I didn't have any trouble with control. Definitely love the mossy, yellow-green colour--it reminds me very much of China Glaze Zombie Zest! I think OI may be a touch darker and greener, but if Zombie Zest is on your wish list, I think you'll love Optical Illusion.
So yes, it's a glassfleck, a shimmer, but apparently it's a glitter...ooh, maybe that's the optical illusion? Whatever, it's all kinds of sparkly and especially perfect for this time of year, and I love these mustard-green, mossy shades. Very happy with my first SpaRitual!

This is you in a bottle. It's just such a you color!
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon!
ReplyDeleteI live in Los Angeles, where it makes more sense to think of "East" Asia as west, not east. So, a shimmer seems totally appropriate :) The color is just gorgeous. Good thing that directions are relative!
