This powder has a clear, slightly iridescent look. Might be good to try over another colour. I love the little stars but you do have to make sure they are pressed down otherwise the edges stand up over the top coat. Also you can’t really file down properly after the activator due to the stars getting in the way, but if you make sure to use very thin coats it’s not too bad. I used the Apex method, which is my preferred method to avoid having too thick nails.
