China Glaze Limonyte

Sometimes polish companies just kill me with the way they discontinue things all willy nilly.  Examples: the OMG collection, Kaliedoscope Collection, pretty much all discontinued holos, La Boheme, Starry Starry Night, etc. I must admit that when you find them (or even succumb to the evils of ebay), it gives you a rush of adrenaline.

Limonyte was one of these.  Another nail fanatic mentioned it and of course went off to google to research.  And then I saw it on Scrangie.  And it was beautiful.  And I needed it.  About a week ago I saw it on ebay.  I'd been debating on what I should use my groupon coupon on, and this was a sign.

Limonyte is a bit sheer, but all you need is 4 coats for opacity and you're good to go.  It also had nice application despite the amount of coats needed for opacity.  (Click to enlarge)

  9. This is one of my favourite greens, and it means a lot as I collect warm green polishes and have a lot of them.

    However the real strength of this polish is not in using on its own but in layering!

    Layering limonyte, 1 thin layer over another green makes absolutely amazing greens. Nothing beats them! They are shimmery, limy, glowy, neony, just stunning and incredible!

  11. I realize that I'm 6 years late! Smh! You summed this up just perfect. "succumb to the evils of ebay". I have paid the price a few times for discontinued / hard to find items on ebay. Thanks. I now know what it's called. Love your Blog. BA.
