Iconic Effect Victor Von Doom

You might have noticed quite a lot of UK indie posts in the last 6 months or so, what a fantastic addition to the range of varnishes available to us nail fans! There are quite a number of UK Indie makers now, I think I have tried about 11 of them - all very good quality, beautiful colours and finishes.
And...Iconic Effect was just voted UK Indie brand of the year. They have created a stunning range of polishes in a very short time, including cremes with glitter, jellies with glitter, glitter toppers, holos and duochromes. I've tried quite a few of them and delighted to say when I just googled Iconic Effect images I recognised my nails in a fair number of the images that came up - yay!!!!
So anyway, I think it's quite fitting that Iconic Effect was the brand I chose for my Christmas Day mani. Victor Von Doom is a dark green holo, quite a sage green although with hints of teal in some lights.
This is quite a sheer polish so I used 3 coats, and it has given a lovely finish. In soft light the polish is a lovely sage green, maybe a hint of grey. In brighter lights the holo comes to life but sadly no sunshine to really capture that. None the less, it is a beautiful polish, whatever the light!
Hope you all had a lovely Christmas Day, enjoy the rest of the holidays!
