Dopey's Glitter

It's purple-mani-day! :-)

My base color is Essence Dopey (Snow White Limited Edition), a pale lilac filled with silver microglitters that look white when covered with a thin coat of polish. As always with my purple hating camera, imagine the color just a mite warmer, more red toned. I used three easy coats and had no isses with application. Due tue the microglitters, Dopey dries a little gritty.





Then I added one coat of a Claire's polish which apparently has neither a name nor a number. It has a clear base filled with purple hexes and blue microglitter. For a glassy finish, I added one coat of Nail Pattern Boldness Glitter Food and one coat of Sally Hansen Insta-Dri.

 

Reggaeton

This mani is a little more restrained, compared to what I'm normally wearing.

I used three coats of Reggaeton, a limited edition Catrice polish (Cucuba LE). It's a dark, chocolatey brown with a very subtle silver shimmer, which likes to hide from my camera.

On my ring finger I added one coat of a Claire's polish with no name or number. This one's nothing special, gold/copper glitter in a clear base, but I like it nonetheless, especially in combination with the dark brown Reggaeton.

I finished with one coat of Essence Better than Gel Nails Top Sealer.

The formula on both polishes was good, both dried in a decent amount of time. But I have to admit, I don't like the new wide Catrice brush, I always manage to paint half of my fingers with it.
