Happy Friday! I have some more Indigo Bananas to share with you today, this time I have five of her fifteen Mega Chrome Flakies collection. These are all metallic mega chrome flakies, so they will not have that translucent appearance like the ones in the Mythic Holiday Collection. Instead, you get clear based polishes packed with these amazing color-shifting metallic flakes. Fifteen polishes is a hearty collection number so if you wanted a line up photo for comparison, click here.
These five polishes were so easy to apply! You can build to opaque coverage if you prefer to, but you will need at least four coats. And while I usually like to do just that, with the Mega Chrome Flakies, you will get a better visual effect with layering them, which is how I decided to showcase them. And I have found that if you layer over a pale or lighter base color, you will see the color-shifting effect more clearly than layered over black or another dark color. For each of the polishes shown here, I applied one coat over a base color and then one coat of top coat.
You can purchase any of the polishes posted today, along with the other ten polishes in the Mega Chromes Flakies collection in Indigo Bananas' shop right now in both mini and full size.

ReplyDeleteWonderful swatches! Dawn chorus is my favorite. So stunning!
ReplyDeleteOoo, love the color combos you paired these with. The purple is so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI really like all these flakies that are coming out right now! I do have to say I think I like the ones with bigger particles a little better. The last mani looks really divine on you!
ReplyDeleteI was going to pick my favorite, but I think it's not possible with this amount of gorgeousness! Wonderful swatches and beautiful polishes.
ReplyDeleteThese swatches are amazing Ida! <3 <3 <3
ReplyDeleteI think I love how you layered Island Universe the most. These are all so pretty and your swatches look great!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a huge flakies fan but you captured them wonderfully! Love the way the light hits them!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! These are so fabulous and you photographed them so well! Just gorgeous!
ReplyDelete*blushes* Thank you Emily!
ReplyDeleteThank you Victoria! I didn't used to be a flakie fan either but I am coming around pretty quickly lol.
ReplyDeleteThank you! That was the one I was least sure about (layering combo) but it is getting the best response so I guess I made the right choice!
ReplyDeleteOh thanks Jenny! <3 you back!
ReplyDeletehaha, well that is the best reaction, when a favorite is impossible to pick, thank you!
ReplyDeleteThank you Kellie! I do like those bigger flakies as well, you can do a little more with them I think.
ReplyDeleteThanks Diana!
ReplyDeleteThank you Valesha! And HI 5 for the Dawn Chorus club lol.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lisa!
ReplyDeleteAll these combo's are gorgeous - I love flakies against anything other than black.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I agree, black is boring, at least with these flakies.
