FingerPaints Itsy Bitsy Spider Over Wet n' Wild Who Is Ultra Violet? Swatch And Review

Happy Sunday Funday!  We'll be at the park today celebrating LO's birthday with family and friends.  There will be lots of good food and bbq, libations, and games.  I hope everything turns out well!  This includes the turtle cupcake cake that we're making from scratch.  Eeks!

I have another Wet n' Wild Pop Art Craze polish for you, and that's Who Is Ultra Violet?  It's a very apt name for this polish because it's a bright violet crelly that applied fairly well for being a crelly and was fully opaque in three coats.  Violets never look that great on me because of the pink undertones, but this one wasn't too bad.  It dried shiny on its own so no topcoat necessary.

I thought Who Is Ultra Violet might be a good base color for FingerPaints Itsy Bitsy Spider, a gorgeous violet with silver blue shimmer that was released this past spring in the Wild About Spring Collection.  This color is really stunning and the shimmer is really strong.  The only downfall is that it's very sheer and takes at least four coats to become opaque.  Here, I used one layer of Itsy Bitsy Spider over Who Is Ultra Violet and I think I got the same effect.  No topcoat in these pics either.

The blue flash is much more apparent in low light.  Sorry for the blurry pic!

Don't you love that shimmer?  I'm not sure if this color is still available, but if you can find it I highly recommend it!  I can never get enough of shimmers like this.  I haven't used Finger Paints that much before but after this swatch I'm interested in trying more!  Do you like Finger Paints, and if so, what's your favorite color?

    1. The shimmer is fantastic... almost makes it look like it's a duochrome!
