Essie Navigate Her w/ KleanColor Green Holo

Here's another one I wore about 2 months ago before the weather took a turn toward dreary. This is Essie Navigate Her and KleanColor Green Holo as an accent.

 
 
 

I purposely posted a blurry photo so you can see how awesome Green Holo really is...it's eyecatching.  I used two coats of Navigate Her to achieve opacity on all nails except the accent nail.  I used one coat for a solid base color and then used two coats of Green Holo over top.  The formula on Navigate Her was great, especially for a relatively light color.  Most pastel colors can be streaky, even after 2 even coats, but this covers perfectly and is 100% opaque.  Navigate Her came out with Essie's 2012 Spring Collection.  You can still find that display in some drug and beauty supply stores.

KleanColor's formula is pretty good too, considering that this brand can often be found in dollar stores.  How can such a fabulous holographic polish be so affordable?  Well I'll tell you why...it stinks.  No, for real....KleanColor's polish smells downright rotten.  This may be due to the fact that they include ingredients in their polish that other companies do not such as camphor.  I will give the brand props for never engaging in animal testing though, and offering a large range of polish with a great forumla for dirt cheap.

Essie Navigate Her retails for $8 at Zappos.com or you can use the handy store locator feature on Essie's website (Essie.com).
I grabbed KleanColor Green Holo @ Clothes Mentor (of all places) for $3, but I've also found several of their bottles at random dollar stores for...yup....a dollar.  Can't beat that!  KleanColor is also available online at KleanColor.com for $3.49 per bottle.
