Application was most agreeable! The consistency of We're Gonna Serve is fluid and smooth with a medium consistency and a fluent, even, self-leveling glide over the nail. Like the other Kiki Vol. 2 mattes, it sets up quickly and appreciates a deft hand using as few brushstrokes as possible, but I found it a pleasure to work with even so. Eminently paintable! Pigmentation is very good, delivering evenly opaque coverage in two medium coats. Cleanup is easy. We're Gonna Serve dries naturally in very good time to a smooth, matte finish.

What an amazing blue! It's definitely greener and more tropical than LPL's Bid Adieu to You Ennui from the Christmas Kiki collection but shares the same opulent, saturated jewel-tone kind of quality, which is only enhanced by the luxurious velvety matte/satin suede finish. I mean, the color just about jumps off the nail, even in low light! The look is vibrant, sexy and high-end, and something about it just makes me want to put on some sueded silk, spritz myself with Chanel Coco pure parfum and roll around on a big, soft leather sofa with Sam Elliot.
We're Gonna Serve is tied with I Hope You're Up Girl for my favorite of Kiki Vol. 2, but Karen did a superb job of curating the colors for this collection and I love seeing all four of them together a la Amy McG's collage photo in her review on Polish Etc. The review also includes excellent photos of each polish with a glossy topcoat in addition to the natural matte finish, so be sure take a look if you're curious about how they look glossy.
