Impala Meu Estilo

About two weeks ago I received an epic nail mail from my wonderful sister in polish from Brazil. It was one huge box filled to the rim with incredibly yummy Brazilian Goodies. Have a look:


In the box I found a whole range of Impala polishes. I have seen this brand with Llarowe and also in pictures on the Internet but did not own any up to then. Please meet Impala Meu Estilo:

Picture taken indoors in daylight:


The formula seems somewhat sheer in the first coat but gets opaque and even with the second coat. I used China Glaze Ridge Filler as Base Coat, 2 coats of Impala Meu Estilo and no Top Coat to keep the metallic finish. I really like Meu Estilo for being a metallic polish outside the "safe" choices such as silver, gold, copper, chrome.

This time I cannot give any purchase information for this particular shade. Llarowe keeps some of their range in stock and ship internationally. I did not come across any European distributor not to mention a Swiss department store carrying Impala polishes.

Do you also like metallic finishes? I look forward to reading your comments!!

Thanks for reading!!
Christine
