NOTD: Wet n Wild Speed

Hello there readers!

May I present to you todays NOTD, which is Wet n Wild Speed.

This is a shimmering deep dark purple with blue and pink micro glitter, I've really been craving purples lately, must be the season ;)

Application was OK - the formula was good, but unfortunately the brush is a real disaster. It's really thick and dense, and the brush hairs are unevenly cut with wispy hairs pointing in different directions, which makes it a bit tricky to apply.

Also, it took quite some time to dry, even though I used Seche a topcoat - I made dents after several hours had passed - don't like formulas that behave like that. I really like the shade though!


Let's look at the pics then, shall we?

With flash... 
Looks way more "blurple" here than it really is

So, which is your favorite purple?

That's all for now - I wish you all a great day, see you soon :)

Hi Krista!
AL "Mireille" from the Bete Noir Collection should make a good equivalent, don't you think? ;)
