Maya Cosmetics Smolder - Swatches and Review

Hello lovelies!

 I have another Maya Cosmetics polish to show you tonight - I am really loving this brand! Kat, the creator of Maya Cosmetics, thoroughly tests her polishes and she has wonderful customer service. I haven't had any issues with the formula on any of her polishes. 

Smolder is described by Kat as, "Blackened plummy brown with pink/red/bronze shimmer." I think that is a perfect description and this polish certainly does smoulder! This polish has many moods and I tried to capture them all in my photos. 

This polish is a little on the thin side and it is best to make sure to let the first coat dry before putting on the second. Kat told me this when she shipped my polish but I forgot when I was applying it so I didn't let the first coat completely dry and, as a result, did get some cuticle drag. I let that dry and added a third coat and it completely evened it out. BUT, if you let the first coat dry then this polish should only need two coats to be even and opaque. It was very smooth to the touch after I finished, no special top coat needed - I topped it with one coat of Poshe.
