The Inventor

Sugarpill The Inventor Nail Polish ($10.00 for 0.50 fl. oz.) is described as a "pinch of silver glitter mixed in a dark steel gray base." It's a dark gray with subtle, cooler undertones and what looks like muted, gold micro-glitter and some silver glitter. It was fully opaque after two coats of polish, and the consistency was a little thicker but didn't pool along the edges so it was manageable. It had a moderate dry down time, and it dried down to a slight shine, but I would recommend a top coat for this one. I'd also say to opt for a thicker top coat, as the micro-glitter creates a sense of texture on the nail. Sugarpill's polish formula lasts seven days on me with minor tip wear but no chipping. Zoya Yuna (P, $9.00) is lighter, warmer (85% similar). MAC Grey Friday (LE, $16.00) is more shimmery, less glossy (85% similar). China Glaze Stone Cold (LE, $7.50) is more shimmery, darker (85% similar). See comparison swatches / view dupes side-by-side.
