KBShimmer A Hint Of Manila Nail Polish 0.5 oz Full Sized Bottle

Color looks amazing

Hidden Potential is aptly named, and I adore it. When I first tried applying it, the first layer looked like gross greenish glitter in a mauve-y base, with no color shifting to be seen, and I was so disappointed I gave up and used a different polish. I recently gave it another go and I wish I had sooner! Once you apply two or more layers, the nail polish really comes to life and has a ton of color shift. In some lights and angles it looks coppery with red and purple playing at the edges, in others it looks predominantly blue with purple. In some lights I have no idea what color it is, but it is very pretty! Definitely give this one a chance- the listing photos are gorgeous (and I have had my nails look like the colors shown in the photo), but it is somehow even more delightful in person. The formula is also very nice to apply, and makes thin even layers achievable without gloopiness or streakiness!

Just tried for the first time and as people mentioned it's quite sheer with just 1 coat..I actually like that. It was a trial and I still had some leftover dip on my nails to keep from breaking, so I ended up doing 2 coats just to even it out a little. Very bright but pretty and I like that it gives a lot of dimension. Only downside is that it's quite thick to work with. See how long it will last and I will update this review.

I think they look better in pics, but they’re cute. The white is not sheer, which I was afraid of. May be better for my little nieces, the colors were a little more circus-like than expected. They take forever to dry — I screwed my nails up two hours after painting and the glitter can flake off (I did use a top coat). The good news is that the glitter masks the mess ups pretty well. I’d buy it again.

This polish is so cute! I love it. It went on easy, I did three coats with a clear gel top coat, and the colors are so cute. It’s not super “sheer” though you could put a single coat over the top of a darker polish possibly…. I applied it without a base coat. This is just day one in the photo. I was impressed with how the glitter shows through. Other glitter polish I’ve tried the glitter clumps or you have to continue shaking the bottle during application, or you don’t get an even look to the glitter… but not this stuff!! Will update my review if the polish chips or doesn’t last. So far it’s made it all day without chipping, my typical nail polish chips within the first 24 hours since I work in an office and am always typing, opening boxes and I’m pretty rough on my nails…. Love it! Buy it!! You won’t be disappointed

Hidden Potential is easily the most widely-varied color shift I've seen so far, actually delivering remarkably well on the beautiful product photo, compared to other color-shifting polishes I've tried. You usually won't see more than one or two hues at a time, but as you move through different light sources at different angles, it dramatically shifts through an entire spectrum of deep, intriguing, smoky-shimmery colors (yeah, "smoky," not bright and cheery; it has a nicely thoughtful, mysterious appeal). And if you have indirect natural sunlight on one side of you and bright indoor lighting on the other, you can actually see the full spectrum all at once, almost as clearly as in the product photo. The polish itself seems to be kind of a translucent but richly-colored deep heliotrope, but you have to look close to see anything but the dense, color-shifting shimmer.My only complaint is that, while the first coat dried nice and hard within a decent time, the second coat was still showing impressions of my fingerprint when tested nearly four hours after application, and tiny bubbles had formed in it on one nail. I finally just threw a quick-drying clear coat over it for protection because I didn't have any more time to wait, and before long the edge of the polish was peeling and lifting back from the edge of one nail.

Love the colors and long lasting!

Good polish but you must use more than one coat.
