Vinylux application-Saints and Sinners?

[nicole333]

There are lots of useful posts surrounding tips on getting a good application with Vinylux so this thread is not aimed at that.

What I'm interested in is a list of the saints and the sinners when it comes to application differences. For example I get a beautiful, easy smooth finish with Tutti Frutti, but Svelte Suede is a mare.

So what colours do you find glide on beautifully and which have you found don't? Let's see if a pattern emerges.

Oo what a good post.... (Can I hijack slightly? & include shellac in this as I don't use vinalyx!) but why is it some colours are a dream & others are a nightmare, what is it that makes them difficult to apply!?

Each colour is unique in how it's formulated. The forum has lots of threads on the PITA Shellac colours, which is why I started one purely for Vinylux as you don't tend to hear about specific colours with V. They all seem to be lumped in together regarding tips on application. But I find them to be unique in application, which is why I am interested in a saints and sinners list.

Sorry to be a thread purist. :hug:

I use three coats for most of the sinners , I am seeing ☺️
It works fine for me, I put on 2 thin coats and then a little thicker on 3rd and then topcoat works every time

I have trouble with Bicycle Yellow, its thick and gloopy and I always get streaks when using it!

I think it's all down to application yesterday I did 6 file and polishes using a variety of different colours they all went on perfectly in 2 coats and I think I have finally mastered vinylux.... And I love it! Off the top of my head the easiest to apply we're rubble, lobster roll, locket love and lilac longing. I also applied azure wish and grape gum which I had to try Harder with but non of them did I panic and I was thrilled with each result 😊 x

I like Lobster Roll, it applies very nicely

Dark dahlia is lovely to apply as is bloodline. Decadence is a bit more tricky and my new fave is sage scarf which applies beautifully.
Don't even get me started on tropix :0(
