I was lucky enough last month (*cough* during my no-buy *cough*) to be able to score two Candeo polishes from Llarowe when she did her first stock. I got Jellybean and the llarowe exclusive Melonball. How i got both in the same transaction i have no idea! I am still gobsmacked now!
Today i have Melonball to show!
Melonball has a lot going on in there! It has small green and pink hex, medium pink hex, medium/large pink square, large silvery pink hex and large pinky-red hex (although some look like irregular shaped) all suspended in a clear base. I have swatched this over my go-to aussie brand black, Ulta3 Black Satin, the i used two coats of Melonball, first coat was thin and i wanted more but didn't want to over do it, so the second coat was thin. Some of the bigger pieces actually went on ok but i still had to dab some on. You can't really notice it on the nail but the big silvery pink hex glitter has started to "Taco" It doesn't bother me at all it is hardly noticeable but i have been in touch with Candeo and she has let me know she is keeping an eye on it and will change it if need be. The formula is awesome in Melonball. I didn't have a problem with it at all. I really love this and can see myself wearing it again! I defintely want a back up bottle lol. Grab it when you can as it's awesome!
Enjoy your day and i'll see you soon!

Looks gorgeous on you! I just swatched mine, before deciding whether to use it for a full mani and my metallic pink hexes are also curled. It really shows on the nail though and I can't get it to look nearly as pretty as you did :(
