Vivinana- Blinding Splash

Viviana-Blinding Splash is a fun, bright, cool-toned yellow creme. Unfortunately, this one did not have the amazing application of Dark Desire. It was uneven and streaky. I had to use 4 coats to even it out and get rid of bald spots. I highly recommend waiting for at least 5 minutes between coats. Application issues were expected though. It's a yellow, after all.

Blinding Splash dried to a high shine. I did not use top coat in these swatches. The end result is definitely worth the tricky application. I will let the pictures speak for themselves :)


I found a dead-on dupe for Blinding Splash in my stash- ColorBar Lemon Drop. The colours are exactly the same. The application is exactly the same. I prefer the ColorBar brush though. But if these polishes were poured into two unnamed bottles, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. I love this shade of yellow, so I don't mind owing two bottles :P

Viviana nail lacquers are DBP and toluene-free. They retail for Rs.129 ($2.5) on their websiteUrban Touch currently sells them for Rs.105. That's just a little over $2. Overseas readers can also check out the Viviana website and leave a query in the contact column for direct purchasing. Viviana is a direct selling company. So you can join them and get lifetime discounts of 20-25% on all products!!!

I saw this and lemon drop came to my mind, which was why I didn't buy it. I just own one Viviana in Outrageous Sky, it is definitely worth the money!
