Julep Lucky Sloppy Swatches

Just received my add-on of Julep Lucky.  Still having issues with the postman not understanding the size of our mailbox relative to the boxes Julep ships.  I had to wedge my hand in alongside the box and tear a side off to get it out:
Hulk smash.  Again.

Oh well.  Anyhow, Lucky is described as "kelly green and gold coin multi-dimensional, full coverage glitter."  To me it looks like a slightly jelly-er version of Cindy with added gold hex glitter.

I swatched it over a few greens in my collection, starting from the thumb we have one coat of Lucky over Cindy, Sinful Colors Happy Ending, Sinful Colors Why Not?, Julep Adrianna, and finally two coats of Lucky with no undies.  Sorry it's so damn sloppy, this is what happens when you're making dinner and soothing a drooling teething angry baby at the same time you're trying out your new polish: 
Goddamn it.

As you can probably tell, it matters jack all what you use under Lucky if you use undies at all with this polish.  In fact, I think it looks even sloppier over the light green Why Not? and Adrianna.  If anything I'd use Happy Ending so as not to waste the more expensive Cindy. It truly is a full coverage glitter; two coats and you are good to go!  It's going to be perfect for St. Patty's day and I see potential for Christmas time as well.  All in all, a good addition to my collection.  Thanks to the fiance for adding this on as a surprise for me!
