NYX Sunday Afternoon
Natural Light
I am loving this nail color by NYX in Sunday Afternoon. It is a metallic silver-pink with a foil-like appearance that I think is very cool!
The first coat was too sheer for the foil effect. I was actually surprised to see in the first coat that the polish was composed of glitter particles in a translucent base. I expected the formula to be denser, thicker, and opaque. However, the second coat gave my nails the look of foil so it was not difficult to achieve the desired appearance. I think the thin formula is probably preferable since it means that the coats dry more quickly and are easier to build.
Keeping it short and simple, I love this color and I definitely recommend it! Not only was it dirt cheap (<$2 on Cherry Culture), the formula was also easy to work with. This might be an odd comparison but it actually reminded me of Chanel's Graphite. I haven't had a chance to try Graphite out yet, but it too looks very metallic and foil-like. Sunday Afternoon could be an affordable option to see if you like that sort of effect.
