My post on this polish originally was so popular, I decided to do a follow up on using a polish as a base coat.

This is it with a Purple base. I was trying a Barry M polish and thought I’d see how it fared as a base for Fantasy Fire. It looks better in person of course, slightly more colourful, but I definitley prefer it using BeautyUK Electric Blue as a base. The colours come out a lot more and it’s more midnighty than purple. I wanted to take a photo of it but it didn’t work.

I’ve had this on my nails for THREE days now. Not a single chip.. on my left hand. I had the beautyUK on my right hand and it is significantly chipped. Bummer but I didn’t use a base or a top coat. I was rushing to get my other hand painted the day after I painted the left before I went to view a flat. Lol!

What do you reckon. Better than the polish on its own?
