Questions & Answers for The New Black Ombre 5-Piece Nail Polish Sets

Question

Are these sheer? Opaque? Some of each?

The only polish application method I know for a true ombre' look is to layer overlapping coats of sheer polish in a graduated range of translucent shades. Are these polishes translucent, or are these for the so-called ombre' look that is so popular these days (painting each nail a different shade in the same color palette)?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Definitely more of a "paint each nail a different color" thing!

Looking at the product info I think they market it as a one color per nail item; I haven't tried the true ombre look with it yet but I do intend to try it.

Each bottle is a different color, shade. One is matte, one is shimmery! There are different versions of 'ombre' one like you said is to graduate the color per nail, this kit has you paint each nail a different color. Just a different take on Ombre! Its worth getting! The bottles are small, smaller than i expected however I used so little polish that the kit will last a LONG time!!

I bought the Walrus set and all the colors are opaque. The darkest color is a shimmer and the rest are creams.

These colors are opaque and actually do a great job of covering the nail with one coat. For the ombra look it is referring to having a different color on each nail, ranging from dark to light or vice versa. You would not be using all the colors on one nail. the effect of having a different color on each nail is pretty cool. I hope that helps!

Question

Is the quality really that bad? Does it depend on which set you choose?

I am specifically interested in the Haze set.

I thought the quality was actually quite good. I recently bought another brand and that polish chipped right away and was very tacky when applying. This set was not. Some of the colors are very shear and take more than two coats, but other than that I thought the quailty was acceptable.
