88 Flip Flop Fantasy with China Glaze

I got the chance to borrow this from a friend, I fell in love instantly! I love this colour; it is a neon colour and works well with my skin tone. Normally I see something bright and run in the other direction, but this colour I fell in love with. I tend to stick to greys, whites, blacks and blues. Very rarely will you catch me in a bright colour? Even in the summer, I tend to stay away from bright colours.

So, I took a picture of the bottle with the name on it and went on the internet to find it, not an easy colour to find I might add. Also being China Glaze it was a pricey brand, so I was trying to find it on eBay or something like that. It turned up and the colour was amazing and despite me being really pale it looks really nice and suits my skin tone which makes the colour even better.

As it is a neon bright colour the consistency becomes quite unsettled and gloopy which is a shame. It is the air getting into it if you can try and paint as quickly as possible and don’t leave it out in a window etc. Any neon nail varnishes tend to go quite gloopy and lumpy fairly quickly so it can be annoying but when it works it looks amazing. Due to this factor, I try and use it for a feature nail or something as you only have one nail, but it is completely up to you of course.

One thing I noticed with this one is it chips really easily even with a base coat and top coat which is annoying if you are going out as you will get there and you will have one or more chips which ruin the look. So, I would say that this is a colour that you use for a feature nail, not for your entire hand.

I would recommend this colour for parties or fancy dresses maybe even a holiday. I have had people ask me to do their nails with this colour. I would repurchase. The price is £5.99 on amazon at the minute but I can’t promise that it is that price everywhere.

Let me know if you get it and how you get on with it.
