I am a nail polish collector and use most of my polishes for my own use, or in nail art. I am presently wearing this color and have to say, while I love the color, the formula of this polish is far from what I hoped it would be. Like anyone else, I like even coating, ease of application, etc, etc. I have learned several tricks when dealing with light, neon, and reputable streaky polishes which I was willing to try with this to give it the benefit of the doubt, After applying a white polish and letting it dry, I attempted to sponge on the first coat, Bad move! I ended up with a matte finished neon coat with bald spots. Not good! I put aside the sponge, and just polished on the next coat, Unfortunately it covered in some spots but where the first color didn't take over the white polish. I then proceeded on, which probably wasn't the best choice, but didn't want to start over either. I applied another coat, and after drying, tried a matte top coat since the streaking mess I was left with was, well,,,pretty sad. I believe I ended up using five coats total and rather than leaving it matte, I topped it off with a quick dry top coat which helped somewhat. I love China Glaze, for the most part, but when it comes to the neon matte colors, for the majority, they chip quickly, and atypically streaky. Again, I love this color, but application (which I take some share of the blame for) and formula left much to be desired. Added: After wearing this for two days there were no chips, but the streaking was the main problem I had with this polish. Also, the white I used under this color was a bit streaky too, and may not have been completely dry when I sponged on this polish for the first coat, I don't know. Well next year when I use this color again (if I do) I will make sure to do the application better, however, I don't think anything I do will help the streaking.
