I mixed eBay neon with acrylic but looking at the irresistible pictures I'm definately going to get them. The eBay ones weren't as strong as I'd like (over cream puff anyway) but quite nice mixed with clear acrylic
Ps this was my first attempt and the brush was mixing the powders a bit grrr

Just wanted to ask what people are doing if you want to stamp over the neons I normal top coat my finished colour (incase I make a mistake & have to wipe it off) then stamp, then topcoat again. If I did this with the neons that would mean 3 top coats & I really don't want to do that as removal would be a nightmare. Any advice greatly appreciated.

Good point, I hadn't thought of this, and I haven't got any further than the initial colour pops, when the NS first turned up.
You could use Clearly Pink instead of the first top coat, as I believe that is acceptable. Or try stamping directly onto the NS. I have no idea if that will work. The problem with that is that if you make a mistake you can't correct the stamping without removing some NS.

Thanks for your replies. The advice when using the neons was to top coat over your cream puff then apply neons. So that's one top coat then I would worry about stamping directly onto neons in case I make a mistake so I would normally top coat before doing the stamping the finish with top coat. Which is clearly far to many top coats. I think I will try a coat of clearly pink over cream puff before applying the neons to see if that works. 😉

For any if you wondering about the Neon pigments from Irresistible here are some swatches I've done.

All were applied on 2 x Cream Puff 1x Top Coat then apply the pigments (patting into inhibition layer) then a kayer of Top Coat to seal pigments in.

So let me get this straight 2 coats of cream puff, top coat - neons into tacky layer of top coat, then top coat again and remove tacky layer x
