Fingerpaints Vivid Reflection over Nicole Am I Making Myself Claire?

This mani is an epic fail.  The individual polishes are nice, but when I layered them it developed severe bubbling, to the point where it looked like polka dots.  Ick.  But - the ingredients are there.  Vivid Reflection is one of the brand new flakies released by Fingerpaints, although the name is a bit of a misnomer.  All of the flakies in this collection are very subtle pastels, not obvious and bright like the previous collection was.  They barely show up, even layered over black, although they are beautiful in the bottle.  I'm not sure what the problem was with this combo I used - Claire? or Vivid Reflection - but it did bubble terribly.  So - if you can ignore the bubbles (ha!) you cna get an idea of what it looked like from arm's length in person.      >^..^<
