Nubar Costa Rica Coral!

Nubar was nice enough to send me some products to review, and this is one of the colors I received. It is actually one of their new MINI bottles, which are 0.25 fl oz. Nubar's website describes Costa Rica Coral as "a bright tangerine colored warm tone inspired by the Ricordia variety". I really do like this color. It is a bright, cherry coral shade that goes on smoothly and has some shine to it. I had no problems applying it, the brush was easy to use, even with the mini size. I did put on 3 coats though. I felt like 2 were a tad streaky, and I was right, it looked much better with 3. It dried relatively quickly even with the 3 coats.

Nubar also sent me their Diamont Seal and Shine Topcoat. I used it over Costa Rica Coral. It is a thick top coat, which also applies smoothly. The smell is not too strong, and it works well. It definitely adds more shine to the Costa Rica Coral. When dry, this feels very soft and smooth to the touch. Super shiny, it almost looks "wet".  I will be using it from now on with my Nubar polishes.

I took all of these photos outside in natural light without a flash. Its a cloudy day, so I couldn't get any sunshine shots, but I think this polish still looks absolutely gorgeous!







LOOK how shiny!

You can totally see my head in the reflection! LOL
