It took two tries to make this work. First time, I applied two coats over the KBShimmer Fillin' Groovy base. Then used KBShimmer Clearly on Top. Absolutely beautiful color, but such a thick formula. I shook the bottle a while but it was gloppy. Had to dip the brush a couple times on some nails. Let the whole shebang dry for 20+ minutes and it was absolutely dry to the touch. I pressed down on my thumbnail and everything slid right off, as though it were a peel polish.
Cleaned everything up (at least with the peel-offs, it was fast clean up!). Then tried again. This time, I put one coat of Mooncat's Getting Even Nail Primer, then spent quite a while rolling the Love You Brunches bottle around, gently shaking it. The first run through, the polish laid down as a smooth coat, but this second time, it was quite gritty and still super thick. I only used one coat on the second try. After 10 minutes, I applied KBShimmer's Clearly on Top. Waited 20 minutes. No peeling this time, but the finish is still quite gritty.
Probably will try another reviewer's recommendation to add some nail thinner. I love the color and the look.
