Today, thanks to a recent order from HB Beauty Bar, I've got one of the latest polishes from new-to-me brand Morgan Taylor! From the Cinderella Collection... Watch Your Step, Sister!
Polishes Used:
1 Coat Beauty Secrets Ridge Filler
3 Coats Morgan Taylor Watch Your Step, Sister!
2 Coats SinfulColors Clear Coat
1 Coat Seche Vite
I've oohed and ahhed over some Morgan Taylor polishes in the past, but not really enough to warrant purchasing a bottle. It's not readily available for pickup anywhere near me, so that was definitely a deterrent. Until the Cinderella Collection...
I saw a few posts about the collection, and this gorgeous pink creme stuck in my mind. So, when I was going a little nuts ordering polishes from HB Beauty, I thought it would be the perfect time to throw in a bottle and try out the brand.
Watch Your Step, Sister is a really punchy mid-toned pink. I seriously love this shade of pink. It's got a little hint of coral to it, but only enough to warm it up. Thankfully, it's nothing that takes it over into actual coral/peach/orange territory.
The formula on this polish was a little thicker than what I'm used to. Application was good, once I got the hang of the brush. It's a little thicker than I'm used to, so I had a little flooding on the first go around and had to start over. The brush holds a lot of polish, so I found that a light hand worked better. I also tried to make sure to have as little extra polish on the brush stem as I could.
For my photos... I used 3 coats and still had a little patchiness. Nothing that 2 coats of clear couldn't handle, though. This polish settles nicely, which I figured it would. Thicker polishes usually do.
Overall, I really like this mani. The color is perfect for both Spring and Summer, and should work nicely with Escar-Go To France, once it comes out! For now though, I'm really hoping the prompt I pull tonight will work with Watch Your Step, Sister for Fishbowl Friday Numero 26. We'll see, we'll see!
