Square Pants
(4-5 coats - I can't quite remember)
This one actually has a very slight shimmer to it. Unfortunately, for any fans of this one out there - Square Pants got discontinued recently. I wore this as a mani quite some time ago (last summer) and, like the other RBLs from this mini-collection, it would not dry. But never mind all that, check the streakiness! 4 coats (at least) in and still?? Biissssh plz.
Kokomo
(3 coats)
I like this one more. 3 coats and it's much less streaky. And I think the yellow is a little more flattering. It's just really hard to pull off see through yellow w/out the mind going to places.

Teal
(2 coats)
OK. This is color win; it deserves all the praise it gets. But, ugh, I found it to be a chippy SOB. Still, I'm taken w/ this one because the color is so gorgeous. I found the coverage to be almost as good as Dead Calm but not quite. It needs two coats but you can almost get there w/ 1.
I'm surprised there aren't a ton of dark teals out there. Here are mine.
Nfu-Oh 570
(3 coats, middle finger is Teal)
Look at that bottle color! 3 coats and I'm no where near it. Plus this is a jelly, which Teal is most definitely not. Moving on.
StrangeBeautiful Vol1 and Vol3
(Index Vol 1 - 2 coats, Ring Vol 3 - 2 coats)
I think your favorite here comes down to a question of taste. All those colors are awesome. If you like a little more green to your turquoises go w/ Vol1, a little bluer go Teal, a little dusty go Vol3. And the application is universally decent w/ all three. Although, Teal is decidedly less thick. So Teal probably wins the application contest.
I'm ashamed to admit I haven't worn either of the SB teals as a NOTD yet. So I can't speak on that.
Kokomo and Teal win.
FINISHED!
