xSparkage Confessions of a Makeup Junkie
Sorry these are late! Here’s the second half of the OPI Burlesque Collection, the Glitters!! These are absolutely gorgeous colors, I’m a sucker for polishes with lots of shine and shimmer, and these deliver for sure. They’re very multidimensional and are pretty opaque within three coats (there may be a spot or two on some nails that aren’t totally covered, but that’s the nature of glitter polishes with a clear base). These would also look really cool with one coat over another color.
Bring on the Bling: Gold glitter with silver, pink, and green reflects. The picture makes it look like more of a greenish gold, but I think it’s a pretty true gold.
Extra-va-vaganza: Bronzey glitter with red and silver reflects.
Sparkle-licious: This is kind of a confetti color, if that makes sense. It’s a purple & gold base glitter with all sorts of reflects depending on where the light hits it. The name is very fitting!
Glow Up Already!: Green with silver and red reflects.
Simmer & Shimmer: Love this one! Blue and silver glitter with silver and red reflects.
Show it and Glow it!: Another beautiful color. Purple with silver reflects.
If you’ve never used glitter polish, keep in mind that they are a bit more difficult to remove than normal polish. The easiest ways that I have found are to just pick off the polishes with your nails or to soak a cotton pad with polish remover and let it sit on your nails for longer than you normally would, then press down harder than usual and pretty much pull off as much of the polish as you can. If you try and take off the polish as you would normally, it will take you a LONG time, as the glitter can be difficult!!
