Today is hump day. I always have and still do think thats such an odd name for Wednesday. Why not just say Wednesday?
Today, I have Hard Candy Beetle for you! I think there was a lot of hype around this polish. After I purchased it, I don't really know why. I think it's really pretty polish. But not one that I'm crazy about.
Sorry for the blurriness in the first photo and I forgot to take a bottle shot. But the douchrome in this is very strong. On the nails it flashes from a brown, purple, green, olive to even red. This was 3 coats. The formula was really thin, thankfully no streaky. It could have been definitely worse. So I guess, at the least I'm thankful for that. I also picked up another bottle of this, maybe for a giveaway or something. Is Hard Candy sold outside of the US? I wonder.
While Beetle is a very pretty duo/multi chrome, I'm really not too impressed or in love with it. Why? I'm not sure. I just don't love it that much.
What did you think of Beetle? If you don't it, do you have access to HC?

I have Beetle and I love it! It is one of my favorite HC nail polishes (I have a gorgeous rosy dusty pink opaque glitter of theirs that I also love). P.S., I tagged you on a Q&A thing on my blog!
ReplyDeleteI have Beetle. When I bought it it, I didn't know it was hyped up. Did you paint Beetle over black?
ReplyDeleteNope. This was just 3 coats. Have you used yours yet?
DeleteI love this! It's so fun to wear!
ReplyDeleteKind of sucks to remove. LOL
DeleteI don't have Beetle but I do have Orly Space Cadet (which is dupey to Beetle) and I kinda had the same reaction..."yea ok this is cool & pretty but not mindblowing"...I think I'm just more of a glitter/flakie girl.
ReplyDeleteIm totally with you! I have Space Cadet but havent tried it yet.
DeleteI think this is very pretty, but I am crazy about duochromes, lol.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenna!
Deletepretty!
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's sold outside of the US. If it is I have NEVER seen it. I've never tried any HC but I have tried ORLY Space Cadet(like someone mentioned above) and thought it was ok.
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting me know!
DeleteThis really looks like a beetle wing, nice :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous duochrome! I love the hints of olive in there!
ReplyDeleteI think the olive is really nicee too!
DeleteI love this polish. I bought it a month or so ago, before I knew there was a hype around it. I think it is fabulous, and I got mine to be completely opaque in two coats. Bummer that you don't like it. :( I think it looks great with black stamping over it. I haven't tried stamping with it...hmmm..I just might have to! <3
ReplyDelete2 coats?!? What was your trick!? Stamping over it, thatd be an awesome idea. I should try that too!
DeleteWow, I really like this!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tara!
DeleteI have Beetle and Space Cadet and really like them both. The duochrome and the sparkle really does it for me.
ReplyDeleteThe removal process sucked though!
DeleteThis is pretty, I like the green flash, a green flash is always good ;)
ReplyDeleteLooks so great on you! Love that duochrome!
ReplyDeleteThanks! (=
DeleteOh, that looks gorgeous! I love the purple in it.
ReplyDeletei love beetle! my bottle isn't thin...odd!
ReplyDeleteI have beetle and I'm not 100% in love either. However, your pics look amazing! =)
ReplyDeleteAmazing duochrome!
