Application was very agreeable. The consistency of Oliveto is fluid, light and creamy with a smooth, self-leveling flow over the nail. I found it to be very user friendly, amenable to ultra thin coats and all of the various finagling I end up doing during application. Pigmentation is good, slightly sheer on the first coat but evening up to wearable coverage on the second. I wasn't quite satisfied with the opacity on my nails at two coats so I added a third, but it didn't alter the color at all. Cleanup was easy and straightforward. Oliveto dries naturally in good time to a smooth, shiny finish. Topcoat seems to enhance the effects of the shimmers, which is a good thing.
Photos show three coats of Oliveto over treatment and basecoat with a topcoat of Seche Vite. Please excuse the ding!

Oliveto was inspired by the olive trees that Ji experienced during a trip to Italy. I've never been to Italy but I have been to Spain and well remember the rows of olive trees marching over the dusty hills.

Olive tree leaves have an almost silvery quality, replicated and enhanced by the shimmers in this polish. Quite magical!
