Wunderkind is a beautiful darkened indigo/purple shade. Sephora describes this as "midnight blue pearl". These swatches are with two coats, and with The System.
The System consists of four steps.

Step 1: Cleanse. Following nail polish removal, Cleanse will finish cleaning the nail and provide a better base for the base coat to adhere.
Step 2: Base Coat. This is designed for the Formula X System
Step 3: Color
Step 4: Top Coat. Formula X is shiny as-is, but this will kick it up about 10,000 notches.
Overall, I loved the look that Formula X: The System gave me. It looked gel-like, but my nails ate the polish like usual. I had my nails done on Sunday morning. By Sunday night, there was a small chip on two of the nails. By Monday night, I had to remove the polish because half of my index nail was gone. Others have gotten much longer wear than I did, but The System wasn't a success for me. However, I'll likely still pick it up because I prefer to pair matching base/top coats with my polishes when possible and it's a decent deal.
Pricing/Availability: Formula X polishes are $10.50-$12.50 at Sephora, The System retails for $32 with your choice of polish.
