First up today is Wet N Wild Megalast in Poison Ivy. This years new releases from Wet n Wild have been fabulous. I love the Megalast line, but had been wishing that there were some darker, more vampy colors. Well, wish granted! I don't know if these are LE or specifically a Halloween release, (they were on a Halloween endcap) but they added a blackened emerald, a metallic cobalt, metallic gold, and a really awesome blurple.
The first of these new babies to catch my eye was Poison Ivy, an aboslutely stunning Blackened Emerald. In certain lighting, it has a bit of purple flash, kind of like Illamasqua Viridian, but not really. It is a bit on the metallic side, but doesn't have a "true metallic" finish. Either way, this is one of the most gorgeous greens I have ever worn, and I was stopped several times by women wanting to know what polish I was wearing.
Photos all pre-chop. Please take a moment to feel my pain. :(
Oh what little length I had, how I miss you already!
Tell me this is not a breathtaking green! I am in love, and removing this gave me a sad. If you don't have this color, get thee to a Walgreens! It is well worth the $1.99 price tag.
Formula:
Very smooth and silky, no bubbling, dragging, balding, or gooping. Wet N Wild has always been my fave drugstore brand, and formulas like this are part of the reason why.
Application:
Poison Ivy flowed onto the nail smoothly. Consistency was perfect - not too thick, not too thin, and I had no issues with the polish thickening up during use. I'm wearing 2 coats for opacity, and it does need both. PI was a bit streaky on the first coat, but evened out perfectly with the second. I find this to be the norm with blackened hues.
I'm so glad I didn't pass on these, Wet N Wild has really made me happy polish fiend this Halloween. Between these and the Tombstone Fantasy Makers, I am a happy girl!
What do you think of Poison Ivy? Have you picked up any of the new Megalasts?
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!
