Ciaté Big Yellow Taxi - swatches and review

On such a dull and grey day like this you need colour!
So here is Ciaté's Big Yellow Taxi!
A nice shade of yellow which puts a smile on your face :)


GOOD TO KNOW:

Type of polish: Cream.

Colour: A bright but sort of pale lemon yellow.

Opacity: Good! This is two fairly thick coats. That's actually very good for a yellow polish! :)

Drying time: Normal.

Formula: Ok. Quite thick formula to work with. Stays where you want it though. I felt that this one needed a top coat to hide the uneven surface due to the thick formula. But after applying one coat of Seche Vite it looked absolutely perfect!

Brush: Very good! Thick, firm and very easy to apply with! :D

Shine: Very shiny on its own, but I have one coat of Seche Vite in these pictures.

Accurate colour, photo vs IRL: Accurate. The best picture is the bottle picture. This is a paler type of yellow. It's not yellow yellow if you know what I mean ;)

Grade: 3+/5 :)

I'm not a big fan of yellow polishes but this type of yellow is fairly nice actually! The colour makes me happy and I think it'll look great in the summer when my hands are a bit more tanned ;)

What do you think of Big Yellow Taxi?

  1. I've had uneasy feeling about this brand since the whole "caviar" thing, but I have to admit, the color yellow here is very happy! It's the kind of yellow you can paint smiley faces on!
