Girly Bits - Fathomless

I looooooved this polish! I wasn't too sure about when I started to apply it. It's a deep green jelly base with micro glitters and was a bit streaky on the first two coats but the third coat was perfection!

I started with my usual base of CND Stickey and topped it with Seche Vite to really bring out the shine.

Such a gorgeous winter color and a more grown-up and versatile glitter.

Thanks for visiting!

Monster Lacquer White Noise

White Noise combines 2 of my latest obsessions: indie polishes and BAR GLITTER!!!! I was oohing and aahing over the bottle before I even opened it because I knew it would look amazing.

It's ideally a topcoat, since the black and white matte bar glitter is in a clear base. For this swatch I started with a coat of CND Stickey base coat and applied one coat of White Noise over one coat of Catrice So Suit!, a semi-matte "soft touch finish" grey. I topped it with a coat of Seche Vite. I got great coverage and loved the end result!



White Noise was easy to apply and while it's not a total glitter bomb, it's packed with enough glitter pieces that you don't need to fish around for them and they apply pretty evenly with each stroke.
