Each polish applied easily with very little clean up. I recommend the foil method for removal of I Lava You! andn EKomo Mai unless worn with a peel off base. All three polishes are so beautiful it is impossible for me to choose a favorite.

Native War Paints Audrey
a tri-thermal which shifts from purple to dark blue to light blue along with copper to green unicorn pee and copper shimmer.

All four polishes have fantastic formulas, easy application and all but Let's Eat were opaque in two coats. The glitter element is light, so I expect these are easier to remove as compared to a glitter bomb type of polish. All four of these will be released on Nov. 1st at 6pm Central in the Crazy 4 Crellies group. Join the group and get a special code for free US shipping on any order including one of the crellies; good until Nov. 11th
