The eXtreme SH sucks too. It's just the worst formula ever. I agree with Chelsey to try out Essie. I haven't had a streaky polish from them yet. Zoya is also a great brand and around the same price as Essie.Janiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03360115449173897838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5428570350002834657.post-84569609029529698532013-08-01T08:36:30.156-07:002013-08-01T08:36:30.156-07:00I am getting the feeling that it's Sally Hanse...I am getting the feeling that it's Sally Hansen that is the problem - I have a couple Essie pastels that don't give me this much trouble!

Even though it was streaky you can't tell that much from the pics! I think it looks very feminine and pretty! Also another trick for smoother application, did you try buffing your nails before you painted them? <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by Patti Cake b.t.w.! :)<br /><br />-http://chelseypatti.blogspot.com<br /><br />Chelsey Patti https://www.blogger.com/profile/04655950344478385870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5428570350002834657.post-90256076959856023702013-07-30T15:27:00.171-07:002013-07-30T15:27:00.171-07:00Oh no!

I have some polishes that go on streaky but a top coat completely hides it. <br /><br />Otherwise, it looks gorgeous and love the glitter you added to it. Such a cute girly look (and indeed reminiscent of Barbie, in a good way!) :)<br /><br />- Toria<br />http://toriamasons-treasures.blogspot.com/Toria Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10246200954513066091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5428570350002834657.post-29369354022255443662013-07-26T13:31:20.872-07:002013-07-26T13:31:20.872-07:00I'm wondering if pastels are problematic in ge...I'm wondering if pastels are problematic in general, kind of like yellows are difficult formula wise? The only ones I've tried are from Julep, and they were a bit tricky.

After two coats, you shouldn't be seeing streaks. however, I think that the pink looks good on you and the sparkles are an awesome touch. Have you tried China Glaze? They're my favourite brand, especially for neons (which have a tendency to be quite streaky). If you're willing to spend a little more, the ORLY pastels that I have go on like a dream. You can buy both brands at Sallys. Hope this helps! jenniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07636088542855575230noreply@blogger.com
