Ozotic: 908

A few days ago, Ozotic released eight new shades in two separate lines / collections - Sugar and Beam. While these are a break from the usual ozotic duochromes and multichromes, they still take my breath away. Well, honestly, it's hard not to be tempted by the official description:

Inspired by 'reflecting luminous light beams' hence the moonlight colours with sparks! 

908 is jam-packed with green and pink sparks! 

Over black or wear on its own so versatile! 

Layer over black and see 908 explode on your nail reinventing itself to light changing crystals simply amazing! 

A magical transformation in appearance that you need to see to believe! 

Colour varies depending on the angle the light falls on your nail!

Let's take a look at 908:

3 coats on its own.
Ozotic 908 is a clear-based polish filled with small green and pink flecks. It is so packed with flecks that you can actually build it up to opacity in just three coats, or four if you don't like VNLs. At three coats, Ozotic 908 looks like a shimmery metallic/platinum off-white from afar. The green and pink flecks add an interesting touch to the white when they catch the light. I'm not sure if the moonlight flashes green and pink like this but it sure is very pretty.

1 coat over black.
The flecks get thrown into the foreground once it is layered over a dark base. You can see the green and pink hues clearly and I even caught glimpses of *gasp* gold and purple! The flecks are duochrome after all! It is not very obvious from this picture but the color shift is there. It would be stronger if I had done 2 coats or one thicker coat. The green is still the strongest hue though.

And because I think it looks very delicate at just one thin coat on its own, here's a picture with 1 coat over OPI Barre My Soul (to hide my stained tips o"o). I love how soft it looks here! It is almost like Essie's Pure Pearlfaction but with bigger flecks in green and pink.

Application was great. I had no problems getting the flecks to spread evenly over the nails. But like I've said, this is really jam-packed with flecks so you may want to go easy on the polish if you don't want it to overwhelm your base color - just take a little polish and spread it thinly over the nails.

So, what do you think of Ozotic 908?

Ozotic: 730

If you have been following our blog for a while, you would have noticed that I'm a huge sucker for duochromes or multichromes. And one of my all-time favorite brands has to be Ozotic. Their color-shifts are simply mind-blowing (see Ozotic 505 for case in point). 

While their 500 series have received much love and praises, their 700 series are sadly neglected despite being pretty amazing in their own right! Just look! 

Ozotic 730. 2 coats on its own.
Gorgeous duochrome that shifts from red to gold (see color shift from index to pinkie). The red is much richer and slightly brighter in real life. The perfect fall shades. :L

730 is significantly less sheer than its 500 series counterparts and can be worn on its own without compromising the color-shift. Unlike 505, the formula is not as runny - it's slightly thicker and flows smoothly on the nails. I had a little problem with my brush though. It felt a little strange and did not fan out very much. Thankfully, that didn't really affect the painting and I was able to get away with minimal clean up.

Because I've heard that the Ozotic 700 series look different when layered over white and black (how cool is that?!), I simply had to try it out for myself.

So here's 2 coats of 730 layered over white:

Here, 730 took on a slightly softer and more pastel look with the red turning a shade of coral-pink and the gold looking more yellow.

And this is 2 coats of 730 layered over black:
(two pictures to show the gold and the red)

Here, 730 takes on a dirtier, grunge-look. The red looks almost fuchsia and the gold turns slightly olive. 

Ozotic, I'm impressed. :b

More, pretty please? *flutters lashes*

Meanwhile, you can get your Ozotic fix from piCture pOlish or Star Trinkets (she also carries other brands like Manglaze and piCture pOlish!).
