Today are the non-traditional colors (i.e. the only colors you guys care about).
Teal Jelly JS-33
(5 coats)
This one was the most clear. 5 coats and it's still no where near bottle color. The VNL is much more visible in person. At 5 coats I was worried about dry time (not Nfu Oh strong suit, IME) so I slapped on an ultra thick coat of Diamont and bubble city!!! Hated this mani and it didn't dry great, quelle surprise.
Apple Green Jelly JS-17
(3 coats)
Ahhhh more reasonable coverage. I think we'd have full coverage, no vnl at 4 coats but I don't do 4 unless I HAVE to. And I thought the unbelievable squishiness of this one would be compromised if I went with any more coats.
This one dried a liiiittle bit fussy (a some bupples popped up after 20 minutes or so) but applied reasonably well and I got lots of compliments. Just look at that swatch! I want to drink that color it looks so juicy!
Raspberry Jelly JS-26
(3 coats - Warning - this one is a bit more purple IRL, also the smudge on the middle finger is the TC not the polish)
Formula-wise, this one was the star. It applied pretty evenly and dried nicely (though not speedily).
I bought colors based on the fabulous street swatches (which are wanting in terms of lighting) and I tried to guess at the more opaque jellies (I can live with VNL but I really don't like completely see through, which is JS-33). One was a failure but frankly I was quite pleased with the other two.
