This was 1 USD at Walgreens. It’s a simple black creme. I know, I know — it’s probably the same formula as “Black Pearl” (swatched below this post) — but I like to keep extra basic black polish around for nail art and layering.
I used two coats. The formula is smooth and generally easy to apply. I have noticed that it thickens in very hot, humid weather ( = summertime down south), but a little polish thinner does the trick. When dry it has a nice shine, though a top coat really helps.
(My ego would like to add that my nails aren’t actually wildly uneven, as the photo seems to show. The angle of my fingers just makes it look uneven…sorry!)
