Application was wonderful. The consistency of Will They Won't They is fluid and thin but silky smooth with a creamy glide over the nail and excellent self-leveling properties. Being a creme/jelly hybrid, the base has a degree of translucence that requires multiple layers for opacity. I've seen it wearably opaque in two coats, but my nails required three for completely even opaque coverage. The first coat is very sheer, just a wash of translucent lavender really, and I got a little angsty. But with the second coat builds the coverage well, much to my relief. Three coats did the trick. Cleanup is easy, I just needed to watch out for those sticky glass flecks. Unfortunately I still have a few glitters hanging around from yesterday's Night Fire manicure, so if you see a few peripheral sparkles hanging around my nail environs looking a little out of place in the photos that's the deal with those. Seems like it always takes a few doses with remover to get all the glitters off when I wear a glitter-filled polish, I wish I was more meticulous about it but I just get so impatient! Anyway, Will They Won't They dries naturally in good time to a beautiful glossy finish. Top coat amplifies the appearance of the glass flecks.

Will They Won't They strikes me as a nice soft lavender for winter, but I'm not really loving how it looks on me. You can see the difference in color when you compare the two middle nail macros (one in indirect light, one in weak sun) to the other pics that show more of my fingers and hands. If you'd like to see how lovely the color can be, take a look at Victoria's photos in The Manicurator's post on this collection, here, or Pam's Polish Police photos, here.
I think I would have done better for myself by getting Oh Slap! (light pink) from Anatomy of a #KDrama instead of Will They Won't They, but I was seduced by the glass flecks... no surprise there! Just wish it looked a little better with my skin tone.
love,
