With colour! As promised earlier, here are some swatches of the delightful Andrea Fulerton Nail Boutique Trio in the shade Petrol in Water. Now this is the shade I originally stumbled across on a blog, and went on the hunt for in Superdrug stores near and far. Eventually I ordered online when it finally came back into stock.
This polish is a double ended bottle as you can see. The guides on the packaging for this polish do suggest layering the lighter colour over the darker, and I agree that this is the best way to get a great effect. I applied two thin coats of the dark shade first. I've worn this alone as I think in itself it is also a lovely colour.
Once you apply the white shimmery polish on top though, the results just blow your mind. The effect is shimmery blue/turquoise from one angle, and shimmery purple from another.
I really love this colour, I know I say this about a lot of colours, but that's probably because I just don't purchase colours that don't appeal to me!! However I do find that the photographs I take of this particular polish, at lots of different angles, just don't do it enough justice. It is what I personally would call duochrome or two-tone, and it is simply beautiful.
AFNB Trios are available in store at Superdrug or online at superdrug.com.
The retail price is £7.99.
What do you think of the effect, or the darker colour alone?
