Yodel Me on My Cell while I Simmer & Shimmer

This was my first attempt at a full glitter gradient mani.  Not too bad & very blingtastic

For the last several manicures I have been playing with glitter gradients & accent nails.  Here's a slice

 On a side note, these pics were taken 5 days into this manicure & Zoya is rocking the house w/ only minor tip wear.  Just Sayin :D

China Glaze Crushed Candy Crackle on Atlantis

I'm still on the fence about the new wave of cracked out polishes.  I'm generally not a fan of the distressed look on anything, especially my fresh manicure LOL  That being said, I tend to like the superbling glitters or shimmers under their craggy creaminess.  The glitter peaking out of the cracks really catches the eye and adds interest in my opinion.

3 coats China Glaze Atlantis, 1 coat China Glaze Crushed Candy, Poshe TopCoat

Lippmann Glitter in the Air

I've been fairly obsessed with light, airy, squishy colors lately and Lippmann's new Glitter in the Air is totally floating my boat.  Glitter in the Air has a light milky blue jelly base that appears clear at first coat, milky white at second and finally light blue at the third coat.  It has glitter in gorgeous colors, blush pink and Robin's Egg Blue.  These two glitters vary in size from fine to small to large hex shaped pieces.  Glitter in the Air is named after the hit song by P!nk, which I love, so it gets brownie points before it even gets on my nail. Add in that glorious square glass bottle, the flawless application, uniqueness of the color & we've got a winner here!




 I love Lippmann's Glitter polishes.  Her collection of amazing colors, multi sized glitters, and impeccable formula really make the $18-$20 investment seem worth it.

So what do you lovely ladies think?
