I love red polish as you probably all know. I was doing a little window shopping on nailsupplies.us when I saw this polish. I loved it and immediately turned to google for swatches. Oh my... heaven on a nail! Of course it was out of stock, so I couldn't order it. Isn't that always the way it goes?
When I was doing a little order for me and a friend a while later, I noticed this polish was back in stock and I didn't hesitate to order it. When it finally came and I had the bottle in my hands I was... well to be honest... a little dissapointed.
Cuccio Manhattan Mayhem is a red medium glitter in a red base. All the swatches I could find, showed an orange shimmer, flash or glow that made it look like flames on your nails and that is what I loved about it. Unfortunately I just didn't see that in the bottle.
I decided to just paint my nails with it, in the hopes of seeing the orange flash on my nails.
I got dissapointed again. When the sunlight hits this polish, you do see a flash of orange in the bottle, but on the nail, it's just a red glitter. Nothing wrong with that, but I want my orange flash!!!
Are you familiar with this brand and did you ever have your high hopes smashed by a polish?

I do like it! I love the color!
ReplyDeleteAt the last picture you see a small hint of orange on the nail, but not as much as in the bottle..
I love the color too, but I just expected it to be so different... I have other red glitters that I just like better...
DeleteOhhh....what a disappointment. When I saw this on IG I thought it was stunning though. To bad its not what you were looking for!
ReplyDeleteIt's a really nice polish, but I just had such different expectation...
DeleteIt is a stunning polish!!
