Simply Smash-ing is one of the first of many Serena Williams sets. Here I'm wearing 3 coats, but in the sunlight I noticed it wasn't as opaque. So 4 coats may be better. Simply Smash-ing is a yellow green metallic foil, more chartreuse than gold. I also noticed some sparse orange shimmer as well. Overall, the color reminds me of tennis balls. This isn't a color I'd normally go for, but once I stepped into the sunlight, I ended up liking it. It's very sparkly and glittery and doesn't look bad on me. :)
Since this was paired with a black shatter, I did that as well. I actually think they make a nice pairing. The black shatter really makes Simply Smash-ing pop. Now if only black shatter had a better formula. There were literally clumps of polish stuck around the bottle neck from wiping. It was also really gloopy when I opened it, and I haven't used it much. I added a bit of thinner to it, and it seemed to be okay.
What do you think? Too flashy or just right?
