Check out the awesome artwork by Mary Winkler...

To create the collection, Rainbow Honey’s Chief Designer, Dee Maldonado, took inspiration from anime, video games, super cheesy B films, and the work of Mary Winkler, illustrator, jewelry and textile designer.

The collection consists of 6 new polishes described by the maker as follows:

Bitty Love Bot - Sparkling metallic aqua
Femme Bot - Sparkling metallic peony
Dusty Bot - Sparkling metallic lavender
Lucky Bot - Sparkling metallic agave 
Skyward Bot -  Sparkling metallic cerulean
Yoshimi - A truly mod black & white combination of glitters sprinkled with a bit of iridescence


All of these polishes, with the exception of Yoshimi, applied basically the same. I used two coats of each of these with no top coat and no base coat. These LOOK like you can get by with one coat because the first coat looks like full-opacity but upon further inspection, I saw a few balds spots as they dried and did have to use two for full opacity. They do apply much like most metallic polishes in that you don't want to over-manipulate or you will get brush strokes. Knowing this going in, though, since I'm used to metallics, I didn't have any issues. I was actually pleasantly surprised I didn't end up having to re-do any nails or go over them because of brush strokes. Yoshimi is a clear-based glitter polish and I had no issues with the glitters coming out nicely and spreading evenly on the nail.

Now on to the photos...
