Sation Men Are From Mars Swatch And Review


Whew, it's Saturday and I'm hoping that you're having a wonderful day so far!  My dad is visiting this weekend and we'll get to hang out with him while he plays with LO.  I'm looking forward to taking him out to dinner for his birthday at our favorite Japanese restaurant.

Today's swatch is a polish that I picked up unexpectedly at one of my favorite nail supply stores.  I always browse the Sation rack but lately I haven't seen any unusual shade until my last visit.  It's called Men Are From Mars, and it's a purple to grey duochrome with green flash.  Formula was fluid and easy to apply but take care because brush strokes can appear.  I used two coats here and finished with a layer of topcoat.

It was hard to capture the green but it's definitely there.  For a $3 polish, I really can't complain.  The duochrome nature is similar to Zoya Adina or Wet N Wild Grey's Anatomy but more opaque.  My budding nail artist within is screaming to do some black stamping over it but I'm going to restrain myself for now.  I'll have to think of something Halloween-y but quick.  Any ideas?
