Spellbound pressed pigment - a chunky linear holo effect pigment. To use: rub applicator on powder then dab on nail (tacky polish works best) topcoat to seal it in, can also be used on gel polish or as an eyeshadow.
cap of 20
I tried as suggested on the nail and it worked, but I decided to try something different to apply it a bit heavier. I applied my base to a makeup sponge and then dipped it into the pigment and sponged it on my nail. I repeated that a few times to get a fuller holo look as shown on my thumb nail. For the other nails, I decided to use a silver polish underneath so I could use a bit less pigment and not worry about full coverage as much. I love how it turned out!
