I got home from Canada Monday night at 8pm and this beauty was waiting for me! Polish Con is this Saturday and KBShimmer has a special limited edition polish to pick up while you are there. Luckily, this beauty will also be available online, but nothing is better than instant gratification and buying indies in person!
KBShimmer Hard to Empress, Polish Con Limited Edition |
Hard to Empress: 3 coats plus top coat. You can probably get away with two coats, but whenever I have flake polishes like this, I like to add a very thin third coat for flake explosion.
Hard to Empress is a "jelly meant to impress." It's a purple-based polish, loaded with unicorn shimmer and then shifting flakes. The flakes shift predominantly from green to blue to magenta. This is really squishy on its own, but I bet it would be gorgeous one coat over black. This is really hitting on all the trends: purple, UP, and flakes! Perfect for Polish Con!

I added a coat of KBShimmer matte top coat because these flakes always look so gorgeous. The unicorn shimmer also looks awesome matte. The red copper is the most prevalent against the blue, green, and purple flakes.
