Barielle Dazzling Diamonds Collection

I have another 5-fer treat for you today! Barielle has another 5-pc collection out and this time it's GLITTER.

Barielle Dazzling Diamonds is a set of 5 glitters, four in a clear base and one in a tinted base. Most of them are ideal for layering but there is one that would be a nice full coverage glitter.

Barielle Cherry Sparkler is a hot pink glitter in a tinted pink base. The base will change the color of your base polish if you have something in a different color family or a light polish. Here I've used one coat over Barielle Life of the Party and three coats on a bare nail on the middle finger. You almost can't tell the difference with a base coat as the tinted base will also build opacity quickly.

Barielle Ebony Rainbow is a gorgeous multicolor (gold, blue, green, red, others?) glitter in a clear base. Here is one coat over Barielle Sunshine and three coats over clear polish on the index finger.

Barielle Pink Diamonds is a light pink dense glitter in a clear base. I think you could reach opacity on this one. Here is one coat over Barielle Gotta Have Fate. Ring finger has two coats to show it can reach opacity quickly.

Barielle Purple Hearts is a purple and silver glitter in a clear base. Here is one coat over Barielle Surf's Up.

Barielle Stardust is a beautifully dense iridescent green, blue, purple, and gold glitter in a clear base. Here is one coat over Barielle Lily of the Valley.

Just because these can look soooo different depending on what base color you choose I put one coat over black on a nail wheel just so you can get an idea of what they look like on their own over a dark base without other colors interfering with the polish. Sorry about the other colors in the picture! =P

Ebony Rainbow and Stardust really came alive over black. The individual colors came out, especially in Stardust!

If you're curious about the base polishes, they are from the Barielle Some Like It Hot collection, and you can see swatches of those colors alone here.

Available here at Barielle.com for $25 for the set of five polishes. All Barielle polishes are 3-free.

Currently, they are having a few goodies!
