Revlon Royal

Ick, I really hate when you have a beautiful jelly polish on and you go to capture it and you get this...
Yeah, ew. In real life there is a little VNL, Royal is a jelly of course. But the photos of this polish (at least mine, I think my dslr flash is too blame) come out looking uneven and just gross. I tried to capture it in the sunlight but it did not want to work with me!

Royal is part of the new Top Speed display. I have to admit when I first saw the admittedly large and colorful display I shrugged it off. While there is a big color selection they all seem to be something we've seen before. I picked up a few other colors and I'll be trying those out in the next couple of weeks.

Does it dry faster than standard Revlon polish? Yes, but to me that isn't saying much! I find Revlon polish usually takes forever and a day to dry. I still need to put a coat of Seche on to make sure to not ruin my still wet nails.

To try and combat the splotchy appearance I added a third coat...



...a little better. And I managed to screw my mani up by sliding my finger over my still wet index finger, which proves this isn't the fastest drying polish even if it is called Top Speed.

Everyone's pictures that I've seen of this come out splotchy ~ I just picked this one up and will be swatching it myself - I'll see if I can figure out a setting and lighting situation that works best - tricky little buggar

My pics did the same thing. They came out bumpy, uneven and you could see VNL, although in person it was perfect and gorgeous!
