Vampink is the outlier here since it is made up fine holographic glitters with larger multi colored hexes in a purple base. I just thought I'd toss it in since I had it. Most of these polishes have a mix of red, wine, and black glitters. Deadly Zins has a slightly red tinted base whereas Vampires Coven and VPV have black tinted bases. Here is a shot of each polish with just one coat.
Here they are with three coats.
Deadly Zins was pretty easy to apply. It did require a little glitter manipulation, but the base went on smoothly without any pooling. With dark undies, Deadly Zins actually fits in well with VC and VPV. Vampires Coven went on easily as well and didn't require any manipulation at all. VPV required some thinning, but I'm not sure if it's because it's old or what. It was a bit clumpy, but it applied a little better once I added the thinner. Vampink was a MASSIVE pain in the butt. It was completely clumpy when I got it. I received it in a swap, but I'm pretty sure it's a formula issue. I added some thinner, but I ended up adding too much. It pooled up all over my cuticles, and once those micro glitters got on my skin they wouldn't budge. I'm kind of glad I didn't buy a full bottle! My swatch didn't come out like the others I've seen online. I'm going to give it another try, though, before I completely write it off because those swatches are just so gorgeous!
Now for some macro shots.
