Colors by Llarowe Bow Chicka Wow Wow

Bow Chicka Wow Wow was released at the beginning of April by Colorado-based indie polish maker Colors by Llarowe (CbL) as part of the Spring 2016 collection. Creator Leah Anne describes this as a "neon coral pink with blue and purple sheen," and it's a stunner! The color is a rich, fruity neon coral, sort of like if you took two parts orange-red, mixed in one part cerise pink and electrified it. A fine veil of blue and purple particulate shimmers read as shocking pink within the brilliant coral base, infusing it with bright pink and producing a gorgeous pink sheen in ambient light plus a dazzling shot of sparkling pink along the axis of light in the sun. 

Application was like buttah, baby! The consistency of Bow Chicka Wow Wow is fluid, smooth and super creamy with a medium viscosity and fabulous silky slip over the nail. It's one of those formulas where the application just gets creamier with each subsequent coat, delicious! Self leveling properties are excellent and pigmentation is very good. Evenly opaque, wearable coverage is delivered in two coats for shorter nails, three for longer. Cleanup is straightforward with a tiny bit of pigment travel and a hint of trace staining, hardly enough to mention. Bow Chicka Wow Wow dries naturally in very good time to a smooth, matte finish. Topcoat pops those shimmers and adds a becoming gloss.
