Manglaze Lesbihonest (Index, Middle, & Pinkie) and Fuggen Ugly (Ring) - 3 coats each color |
I just received this polish after finally buckling down and ordering it off Amazon. I was originally trying to buy it off the Manglaze FB page but I was having issues with the checkout (totally NOT Manglaze's fault and Mike, the owner was so super cool about it!)
I do not regret this polish at all and so you shouldn't either.
It was hard to choose the ones I'd get first to pop my matte nail polish/Manglaze cherry, but I finally went with Lesbihonest, ILF, and Fuggen Ugly. They are gorgeous. You need these.
Formula wise, I didn't see any of the problems that I have read usually come with mattes. Really smooth to apply, two coats are sufficient although I went three, and I'm pretty sure with a topcoat like Seche Vite, they'd look absolutely beautiful glossy too.
Here's ILF:
Manglaze ILF - 3 coats |
I love teal/blue/aqua so of course I had to have this color and it didn't disappoint either. No streakiness, easy to apply and all three colors dried super fast which is typical of mattes.
They are a little pricey (around $12 with the 10% off) but seriously, you need these in your life. They were worth every penny. Not to mention Mike himself is all full of awesome-ness. He responds quickly to any problems you contact him about and shipping was incredibly fast -- I got my order in three days from Chicago to San Diego.
I would say that if you could only buy one matte nail polish, Manglaze should be the first place you go. With a variety of shades ranging from standard issue black (for the rockers and the posers), to hot pink (F*** Off & Dye), there's sure to be a shade in between to make you happy.
