Nina Ultra Pro-Glamrock

Ladies, if you love glitter, than I have the polish for you.  It's Glamrock by Nina Ultra Pro.  When I first saw this polish in the bottle, I was skeptical because glitters typically are not very opaque.  This polish is the opposite!  Two coats was all I needed for complete opacity.  The rich black base helps with this without eating up all the pretty chunky silver glitter.  I can see this polish being a go-to for me when I'm in the mood for glitter :)

This polish dried with quite a gritty texture, so I topped it with a coat of Gelous before adding SV.  This made for a super shiny finish that I loved :)  Removal was a pain in my butt, but I was expecting that.  I used the foil method, and still had quite a bit of work to do...oh well!  I'll put up with the annoying removal if it means wearing pure bling on my nails.  Speaking of wear, it wore amazingly!!  These pics were taken after three days of wear.  During those three days I worked three full shifts using my hands a lot, and I only had one tiny chip on my right hand.  I was really impressed!

Thanks for stopping by!

China Glaze-CG in the City

I have been looking for this one regularly at my Sally's since it got released with the Metro collection.  Yesterday I got my hands on the last one!!  Now, I've heard pretty meh reviews on this one, but I just couldn't help myself.  And I'm glad I didn't!  I love it!  It's a clear base with dusty purple and silver glitter in it.  Love.  It took three coats to get it opaque enough for me to wear it on it's own.  Keep in mind that I have super shorties right now, and not much VNL to show, so it might look more sheer on others with longer nails.  I topped the three coats with my new love: Gelous.  I love Gelous so, so much.  It smoothed everything out and made the difference for me in how much I love this mani.  Topped all that off with SV:

So much love.  I can't stop looking at my pretty nails :)  If you love dusty colors and glitter, then this one is definitely for you!!  I warn that you need patience, though, as you need three coats and preferably a coat of something like Gelous to smooth the glitter out.

Thanks for stopping by, loves!
