Ol' Glory is a clear base with silver micro shimmers, blue foils, silver foils and red foils. Red foil is known to bleed on occasion with dip liquids. If you encapsulate in clear, you have a better chance of avoiding this type of bleeding. Sometimes different liquids will cause the foils to bleed as well. If this happens with yours, just remember to wipe your brush before putting it back into your bottle of base or activator. Pictures do not do this one justice!
Swatch was made with 2 dips of color and topped with gel top coat.
*Powders made with ultrafine glitter may sometimes have a different consistency due to the addition of powdered acrylic.
Pictures of colors are taken in different lighting to best represent their true color. Color may however vary slightly depending on monitor settings.
While I try to capture the best photo of the true color, there are many things that may alter the color and vary your results. Computer monitors may make the color appear different than what it looks like in person. Other factors include lighting and method of application. Dip liquids vs. gel liquids will give you a different result as well as the amount of layers of color that you may apply. Swatches are made with 2-3 coats of color using the laydown method in a cupcake liner and most colors are encapsulated in clear. Dip liquids are used on every swatch. Solid colors may also have a slight shimmer due to contamination of the dip liquids.
