Glitter will give you that extra lift, that extra sparkle that is so nice to see this time of the year.
Just look at this beauty from Dip into pretty - City Lights.
I am talking silver holographic glitter bomb, and you can use it either as a topper in one coat, or on its own, as I did here. All the polishes from Dip into pretty are 5 Free, and very nicely priced, so give them a second look by clicking on the green highlighted links.
Oh my! What a beauty! It felt like a party on my nails. I applied two thin coats for what I thought was full opacity. Glitters applied evenly and they covered so well. I was actually surprised to see on the photos that I actually did not have a full coverage - this glitter is so over the top sparkly, that shine was so intense, I thought there was no space in between glitters left! I just used brush for application, but if you want full - full coverage, you can either add another coat or two, or just use a make up sponge to apply glitters without adding the thickness of the clear base. Usually, glitters would feel bumpy, but again, I was surprized how smooth surface was. I am not sure if that would remain if applied by the sponge. I had experienced that some base would look like it shrunk after drying, leaving the sharp edges of the glitters exposed, but there was no thinning or shrinkage of this base. I call that quality.
As I said, this was blindingly sparkly, and with even the tiniest move, glitters would caught and reflect the light and it is mesmerizing. Fair warning if you plan to drive wearing this - it could be very distracting!
You can use it as the topper to spice up any color, you can wear it on its own, or you can use it for an accent nail - once again, your imagination is your limitation.
For some reason, this reminded me of the bubbly, and that is so appropriate for this time of the year, and what a better way to ring in the New Year, but with some bubbly! Just give me some Brut, and no one gets hurt. There are better and expensive champagne out there, but this is what I grew up, and brings fond memories of the time gone by, spent with my family back in Croatia.
Double delight here - you can drink your sparkly, and you can wear it too!
For bubbly reason, I went with bubbly design found on Mezerdoo B19 stamping plate, and for stamping, I used DRK Nails - Extra Black.
Loved this elegant black and silver number, good for any black tie affair.
I hope you will like this idea too, so lets bring up some bubbly to greet the new adventures.
Cheers!
Don't you worry, I will use it again, really soon.
