This colour is great for winter as it is quite dark. I was really attracted to it when I saw it in the store. In the bottle it looks totally gorgeous. It is a dark purple but has this deep purple shimmer as well. When I started wearing it, I realized the shimmer is only visible in sunlight or when the light falls on it (I tried my best to portray that in the photos). In the shade and room lighting this colour looks pretty much black but it has a nice crispiness to it. Dark shades like this are best worn on short nails to avoid looking like a witch LOL
The packaging is cute and funky. All the bottle colours correspond to the polish colour. It has a gigantic brush (see the photo) which is very innovative (one of the main reasons I got the polish). I love trying new things - this brush is not bad but it takes getting used ot. It has the same width as my pinky nail literally. It definitely makes the application quicker but I tend to go beyond the nail a bit if I am not careful but it general I do like it. I also need to be careful not to have too much polish on the brush.
It promises to dry in 1 second which is way too ambitious for any nail polish but I do think it dries a tad faster then some others. I have noticed, however, that it can get messed up even the next day after applying if I hit my nail on something - so my praise on the wear is not very high... The pigmentation is good and has total coverage in 2 coats.
In general I do recommend it if you love the colour and don't mind the price. I find it a bit expensive because the bottle only contains 8ml whereas standard bottles of other brands contain 15ml. I did enjoy trying it out becasue of the brush but not something I would buy again.
