Though worn some weeks ago, I'm pretty sure this was three coats. This shade is from Max Factor's line of mini polishes, sold over most of Europe if I'm not mistaken. The thing with those is that the brushes and handles suck, at least in my experience. I had to go through quite some effort to get this manicure decent, and if I recall correctly, do a shitload of cleanup work. So, application wasn't a very nice experience, but the shade itself is neat. Perhaps not that unusual, but beautiful, still. Any lover of greens knows why. The base is really a teal shade, and the shimmer is golden, which ends up emerald like this.
So, not really for anyone who's into effortless manicures, but perhaps for a greens collector like myself. Though, the pricing of these tiny bottles (it doesn't even have the volume printed on it) is ridiculous: 59 SEK (~9 USD). Shit.
Swedish word of the day:
smaragd -noun emerald
M-hm.
