Well, I've decided that I want to join the neon bandwagon. I always thought my skin tone wouldn't be very conducive to neon colors, but then I kept seeing all these beautiful neon manicures and I had to try it. After a trip to Sally's, I came home with these little babies.
For my first neon mani, I went with the Nina Ultra Pro in Solar Flare. It's a super bright highlighter yellow that is pretty blinding. This polish is not for those who want a subtle pop of color, but I freakin loved it! I could not stop staring at my nails!
See? It's crazy bright in the sunlight! I used OPI Nail Envy as a base coat. The first coat of Solar Flare was pretty thin and sheer, and it dried surprisingly matte. The second coat was better, but I got the color I was looking for on the third coat. Some people like to do neons over a white base, but I was just experimenting with this one, and I'd say a white base isn't necessary. Finished with a coat of Seche Vite and the color shines even brighter. Wow!
Have you jumped on the neon bandwagon? What neons do you love?
