Have you ever had a polish stealing the spotlight from another polish that you planned to feature in a post? This mani was totally not how I thought it would turn out 🙂
I started out wanting to try Orly Digital Glitter just by itself.
From Orly Surreal Fall 2013 collection, Digital Glitter quite stood out with a bunch of dark looking glitters.
It is deceiving though, as the fuchsia micro glitters and gold glitters totally mask the base colour, which is actually clear. I only realized this when I applied it on my thumb.
Then I had to look for a base, Color Club Pucci-licious was just sitting casually on the counter waiting. It was a gift from a lovely friend in Toronto for Squirt. They spent a day together making nail polish art and baking delicious cookies while I was stuck at a conference. Life isn’t fair huh? 🙂
Back to Pucci-licious. Not to smooth talk my friend, but it is a really nice polish. One coat to opacity, which I didn’t expect, and a nice shade of purple with a good balance of blue tone.
With that, Pucci-licious stole the show, not that I have a problem with it!
To be fair, with the glitters in Digital Glitter, it probably looks better on top of a black base, I wouldn’t discredit it just yet.
Hope everyone is well rested after the super long weekend and has their fair share of chocolate from the Easter bunny.
I managed to stay in for the most part of the time off to avoid the mall’s tempting call, but my main fridge stopped working yesterday (i.e. $$$) so the week didn’t start out well for me. One day at a time, I have to deal.
