Bling It On

Barielle has a new collection out - Bling It On! First, you know I LOVE glitter, so I feel like this collection was made for ME! Second, Bring It On is one of my favorite movies of all time. I can basically recite the entire movie start to finish. 

Don't judge me.

Anyway, this collection is a set of five glitters, ranging from chunky glitters to larger glitters with subtle smaller background glitter, opaque vs topcoat. It's got them all!

No sunlight, sorry, it's been raining here like crazy. I like the picture below because you can see the shifting of the middle color, Shooting Star, which is gorgeous. Can't wait to get it on my nails!

Fifth Avenue Boutique

Barielle has some awesome nail polishes. I love their bright pinks, formulas are a dream and they last a long time. Barielle Fifth Avenue Boutique is no exception. Bright yellow leaning pink almost leaning a bit coral, it really pops!

I couldn't get any sunlight photos but even in the shade you can see that the color is bright but covers really well. It's not quite neon, which means none of the neon application issues.

No streaking, just beautiful opaqueness. This was three coats, which probably the third wasn't needed, but there was still a teeny visible nail line.

So many pictures. I really love this polish.

Available at Barielle.com. Check them out!

Polishes Used:
Nailtiques Formula 2 (1 coat)
Orly Bonder (1 coat)
Barielle Fifth Avenue Boutique (3 coats)
Posche Top Coat (1 coat) -- ready for new top coat! this one is drying out and starting to do funny things to the polish (note side of thumb nail - blah!)

Hope everyone is having a good day!

P.S. Sorry I've been gone for awhile. I've been super busy with work and life and stuff. Still polishing my nails and playing with makeup, just using older stuff and repeating same colors so not very interesting!
