I've never used a yellow before but got this to add to my fall collection. It is absolutely gorgeous. The photos don't do it justice. I tried to catch the glimmer in the light in my photo but the camera is blocking the light. The colored flakes shimmer and sparkle in the light. The yellow is more of a light mustard color....a true fall yellow. The application is silky and it dries fast. I have 2 coats on in the pic and no top coat yet. It is a must have for fall lovers. Now I'm in love with Fall.
