Alanna Renee It's a Surprise swatches

Alanna Renee It’s a Surprise – came with It's a Girl and It's a Boy, the latter is swatched HERE.
It's a Surprise is described as a baby yellow cream with a subtle shimmer, but in my mind this is a much more of a cream white with a very, very weak yellow hue, and the shimmer is super shy once it left the bottle. But it’s still pretty, just not what I thought I would get…
The formula is a dream to work with, and the dry time is good. This is three coats without a top coat. Two coats is enough on nails without my severe ridges - and yes, I do use a ridge filler ;)
Do like this polish..?
I bought it from Norway Nails - remember you can get a 10% discount if you use the code MARIA10

  6. I like it! I'm thinking it would be good for nail art base color... How does it compare to a normal, straight up white? Is it more like a cream color compared to straight up white?

    1. Indeed it would, and yes it is, I tried describing it as well as I could in the text above: "but in my mind this is a much more of a cream white with a very, very weak yellow hue, and the shimmer is super shy once it left the bottle" :)
