Dirty Snow

 
 
It has been well documented that I have a weakness for glitter polishes, and as I mentioned in my BYSpolish post one of my very favourite bottles is Cold as Ice from the ultra-affordable brand. The beautiful mix of silvery fine shimmers is so addictive for me, and I adore it when thrown over a cement grey like Wet Cement from Sally Hansen.
 
 

Sadly my Seche Vite is super gluggy and in need of resuscitation, but I think I will end up switching to a Sally Hansen topcoat and just deal with it later on. What top coat do you use?

 
*All bottles purchased by me. Honesty, always.

  2. Insta-Dri always & forever! This is a super pretty combo, I must try someday soon :) Though probably will have to sub the BYS glitter for China Glaze Snow Globe or Luxe and Lush, though they're not really similar to Cold as Ice.

    1. @sleepandwater I think Snow Globe would look nice with it, though it definitely wouldn't be as opaque.

  3. Cold as ice is gorgeous, I was trying to remember which shade you were raving about before and couldn't remember!

    I use Poshé topcoat, I couldn't recommend it enough! I'm on my third bottle. :)

  4. I love this manicure :)
    I use Seche Vite too but I don´t like that fact that it goes thick and goopy so fast. Its so darn expensive here that I am on the hunt for something that is just as good but a bit less expensive :)
    I use the Seche Restore thinner atm to help my Seche Vite but I will have to give up soon :)
    I really like that Wet Cement color btw :)

    1. @shortylegs Thank you, and I agree Seche Vite is great but so annoying when you get halfway down >< I manage to snag my bottle for $12 (cheaper than any other brand down here!) but now I have to hunt down the thinner, too.

    1. @Di Thanks, yep glitter is a common weakness I think. Opaque ones like this are the best!

  6. I never tire of looking at Cold As Ice! Currently I'm using China Glaze Fast Forward as my quick dry top coat.

    1. @Vita neither do I, such a stellar (and cheap!) shade. I want to try a CG top coat, going to keep my eyes peeled at Cosmetics Direct ;P
