Today I have Rescue Beauty Lounge's polish in Pizzicato. This is from their Firebird collection, which I had to have (I now own 3 of the 4). From swatches I had seen online I thought that Pizzicato was a dainty white polish with apparent shimmer in it. When it arrived I was shocked that it was a light pink/lavender shade with shimmer. I thought I wouldn't like it, but I ended up loving it! Well, the color anyways. We'll get to the formula after the pictures. Take a look!
All of those photos are under artificial light and are 2 coats. And the shimmer was impossible to capture! The bottle shot gives you an idea of what's in it. I was hoping to get some natural sunlight pictures, but the manicure lasted a total of 10 minutes because I got so frustrated.
I only have 3 polishes from RBL and this is the only polish that gave me trouble. The formula took forever to dry. I think I waited 5 minutes between coats and it was still tacky. But, me being totally impatient, I went on anyways. The polish never set. I was going to add some leaves from a bundle monster stamp, and just as I put the stamp on my nail it went sliding...and took the polish with it in a big, gloppy mess. At that point I was so fed up that I angrily took the whole thing off. Besides, it was 11 PM and I was totally over it.
Maybe, one day, I'll return to Pizzicato. It really is a beautiful color! And this has happened to me 2 other times with different polishes that were amazing colors that I hope to revisit one day. In the mean time, let's just enjoy the beauty from the pictures!
I hope everyone had a happy new year!

I absolutely love this color. It's such a shame that the polish never set. :(
