The bigger the better?

I have tried to love it, Isadora's Blue jeans. Denim-polish for a denimgirl. Having read P'ssion's entry about loving the polish, I decided to give it a 2nd go and that is what you see above.
I have wanted to love it, because I adore the color which is blueish black indooors and unwashed denims in the sun, and because I think the idea behind having a wider brush is a good one.

But, the polish is so thick it's like slabbing on glue. It might be opaque in one coat, but that coat is messy and the polish is so thick you get ridges, canyons and hey, isn't that an island? Wonder who lives there?

I know how they got there though and that was by using this brush which is as wide as the nail on my pinkie. Above you see it next to one of Orly's brushes (Mandalay Ruby). If the polish had been thinner, if the polish had been sheer, if the top hadn't been square, if only...
The combination thick polish and wide brush is a disaster. I had a base-coat on the first time around, but it still managed to stain my cuticles and the skin on my fingers.

This polish is going franken.
