Blackjack is part of the current Mode Cosmetics collection and is a jet black. I had the shits in a serious way with this one! My usual routine is to paint my nails at night, apply a quick-dry top coat, and go to bed shortly after. I go to sleep with my hands hanging out, so that by the time I move my nails have dried enough to not be effected by sheets and blankets. Up until now, this method has worked perfectly, and then came along Blackjack... The first morning I woke up to fingerprints in my polish, a little annoying, but I figured it was bound to happen sooner or later! So take-two the second night, and wake up to more fingerprints and dings! Grrrrr! Peeved! I left nothing to chance when it was third time lucky! I painted, cleaned up and swatched them straight away! lol. So, the lesson learned here is that Blackjack is a thick, slow drying shade. I only needed two coats to get an even coverage. The result is great, but make sure you give your nails plenty of time to dry to avoid irritation! :)

I will be listing a bottle of this shade on OZtion for any Australian ladies interested in owning one! I will also be offering it for trade on MakeupAlley in the near future for anyone, anywhere! For ladies outside of Australia who would like to buy a bottle, please email me and I will happily list one on eBay for you. If you have tried these links and Blackjack is not available on any of these sites, please email me, and I will endeavour to source one for you.
