Picture Polish - Cosmos

I saw Cosmos launched on the Picture Polish facebook site and I was instantly in love. A rich dark blue jelly with scattered holographic effect.  This is the blue sister to Picture Polish Kryptonite and in the same family as the Ozotic 600 series.

This is three coats of Cosmos, although two was really enough.  Just like my beloved Kryptonite, this is perfect in every way.  The formula is smooth and easy to apply and it has just the right amount of tint to make it a jelly for the holo particles to shine through, but still providing good opacity.

For anyone that hasn't tried the Ozotic 600 series or the other scattered Picture Polish holos, you need to know that the holo particles are not glitter.  They are ultra thin and irregular shaped, like little shards of holo.  Because they are so thin, the polish dries completely smooth and you don't need top coat. Although you can add top coat (like I have for these pictures) and it wont dull the holo appearance.





Cosmos is available for $11.50 AUD from www.picturepolish.com.au and in other currencies from their network members.  So while you're on sites buying Kryptonite :), you may as well get Cosmos too.

    1. I think Cosmos is quite a bit darker, but the big difference is the holo sparks and not glitter.
