Hey Girlies!!
I'm back with another brand spotlight! This time the spotlight is on Afterthoughts, a store brand polish.
Another trip down memory lane for this one. This is also one of the oldest polishes that I own. I bought this polish from Afterthoughts when I worked there at age 17. Honestly, I don't think Afterthoughts is around anymore. I didn't follow the evolution that closely, but I think Afterthoughts was what Icing is today. Kinda like Claire's older sister :)
This polish is called Waay Kool. On the swatch below I used 2 coats. It is a shimmery cloudy steel color.

Waay Kool is closest to WNW Sterling Silver, with Sterling Silver showing a bit of brassiness in the steel. Brand New Skates is a bit lighter with subtle prismatic shimmer.
Thank you ^_^
ReplyDeleteLoose shadows, huh? Well it is helpful to use them wet, or to just use a really good primer underneath so the loose shadow will stick to something. I personally love using Fyrinnae's Pixie Epoxy under my loose shadows. Also, its better to use a flat shader brush to apply loose shadows. Thanks for the comment~
What a lovely color! I have never heard of this brand though.
