I've got to wonder at the irony of my mailman delivering a package containing a nail polish called "Frost Bite," after dark, through the snow in 14 degree temperature!
But I could not grieve for him for too long in my cozy home with my greedy hands on nail polish! I had hubby put baby to bed while I swatched this lovely blue beauty!
This was my first look at Soothing Soul Lacquer's new 15ml bottle and I was extremely pleased with the perfect brush. I love the sexy look of the black lid on the boxy 12ml bottles, but have to admit this white one-piece lid was more practical.
The formula is perfectly smooth and somewhat translucent which gives it a beautiful depth in 2 coats! The deep but bright color is very attractive and would suit most--if not ALL--skin types. I believe it has both a shimmer and a highlight. It dried fairly quickly, but there was time to push the polish around when swatching.
The photos here are 2 coats of dry polish without topcoat! The finish is perfectly smooth and adequately shiny. (I do not believe top coat should have to fix or hide short-comings of the polish itself! Soothing Soul passes this criteria with flying colors consistently! Sheen is a good indicator of durability--the glossier, the longer wearing.)
Some of the printing on the label was damaged by the time I started photographing. This could have been due to the excessive oil on my hands, the extreme temperatures it endured during delivery and the quick way I warmed it to room temp. Or it could have come that way and I did not notice until posting photos.
As with all Soothing Soul Nail Lacquer, Frost Bite is a 7 FREE formula. Frost Bite is also available in a 7.5ml mini if you aren't ready to commit to a full-sized bottle or want to take it on the go!
And of course...the nail art possibilities are endless:
