Despite leaning more to the orange loving side of the colour
spectrum, pink is still a lot of fun for me to wear, especially when the
weather heats up. I’m still obsessed with the Jordana Glitters I bought while
in Sydney for IMATS/BBU, and so last week I decided to use one. Of course, I coated each and every nail with a
glitter bomb. Such a pain to get off, but so worth it until then- I got a
compliment about my nails while watching Chris play indoor football!
I used the Sally
Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in 170 Pink Slip* as a pale base for the
glitter chunks, so that they really stood out. I don’t think I would wear Pink
Slip on its own as a manicure as it hovers between very pale pink and white,
and doesn’t flatter my pale hands very much. I think I will be getting a lot of use
out of it as a glitter base though! The Jordana
Glitter I’ve used in this look is 05 Pixie Pink, which is a
mix of medium pink hex glitter and small glitters in a clear base.
How often can you be bothered wearing glittery nails?
Do you have a favourite 'base' shade for wearing under effect polishes?

@Charlee I agree, they can be the prettiest polishes but man they are a pain to remove! Thank you for commenting, but next time please don't link to your blog here- I will check out your blog without you having to do that.
DeleteThanks :)
that's a very cute color combo
ReplyDelete@thebeautydispensary I think so too :) Thanks for commenting x
DeleteI love glittery nails, but it's such a b*tch to get them off tbh. I've heard of PVA bases but still...too much trouble. I do love the one you've shared though.
ReplyDelete@Norlin Yeah it is a bit of a pain! I love the look of them so it is worth it for me. Can't wait to get those Ulta shades!
DeleteThat is such a pretty glitter! I have to check the Jordana section next time I'm at the drugstore. x
ReplyDeleteThanks Coco, the Jordana glitters are really beautiful and unique, you should definitely check them out!
DeleteI definitely LOVE this combo! Blingy but very pretty and soft at the same time :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Vita!! I love the way this looks myself. I think you are right, it has a certain softness about it with Pink Slip as its base.
DeleteI love it!! I'm loving glitter- except the removing it part:)
