I started out by painting all my nails with Wet n Wild Black Creme, and topped it with Seche Vite. I made sure they were VERY dry before continuing (if you apply gel polish and cure it with slightly wet polish under your Seche Vite, you will get what looks like wrinkles in your base color). Using a very little amount on the brush, I painted a super thin layer of the gel polish on my nails. I cured it, and did one more thin layer, cured it, and sealed it with a gel top coat. This took a bit of experimenting. If you get too thick of a layer of gel polish, it gets a grey look to it and you don't get much of the color shift. Here is how it looks at this point:

This polish reminded me a lot of galaxy nails. So I decided to stamp them with BornPrettyStore plate BP-03, found here. I used Mundo de Unas stamping polish in silver. I finished it off with one more coat of gel top coat. Here is the end result:
I had to stretch the image a bit to get it to fit my nails, but I still like the way it looks!
Overall, I really like this polish. If you have the patience to get the coats VERY thin, you will love this polish. The shift is subtle, yet very pretty! You
