Polish Pickup starts tomorrow and Paint it Pretty Polish is treating us to another purple polish. Forget Me Not by Paint it Pretty Polish is a shifting blue/purple/pink packed with glowing aurora shimmers. It has a jelly like formula and while visible nail line wasn’t obvious in indoor lighting, it is noticeable under my lights with three coats. I do have a strong visible nail line so it is not unusual for me to need an extra coat, but you would likely need three for opacity. I know Cosmetic Sanctuary had full opacity with three thin coats. It can also be layered over black or other dark colours.

I couldn’t pick it up in my photos but in some lighting, it has a more light green-blue shift that complements the blue. the purple shift is definitely my fave though.

Forget Me Not by Paint it Pretty is shiftier than it looks in my photos when worn over a black base. I tried it over Hit the Bottle’s Black Undies peel off base coat. It might look really good over a lighter colour too.

This looks good both solo and over the black <3
This is super pretty! I love it over the black base and I am actually starting to really like more sheer shades, kind of a nice change from all the heavy ones I usually wear!
