Tried Kissy all kinds of ways, by herself, over a light background...the way she looks best is over a deep semitransparent background like Valerie which makes the deep magenta glitter stand out, and the hologram bar glitter pop!

I was disappointed in this particular polish ("Kissy"). The finish after it`s dry is very flat which doesn`t look nice with a glittery base. Almost like you smudged your polish while it was drying. The color "Nova" has a much nicer finish. It has the glitter in the polish with a shiny finish.

Very sheer, love the sparkly bars, but you won`t get too many days of wear out of it. I always use Zoya top coat, base coat, and Remove and usually I can get at least 5 days without a chip, just minor tip wear. I`ve had Kissy on 2 days and already have some chips. It`s to be expected, though, considering the large glittery particles. Overall, very festive polish. I still love the way it looks on my nails, short-lived as it may be!
