Otherwise, it’s a fabulous layering polish, and dries quickly, so the extra layers don’t make too much of a difference. Obviously it drops marks on account of the glitter not being evenly spread… but honestly, I can live with it. You may have to just trust me that it is, just, SO COOL. It’s mostly hidden by the glare of the flash, sadly. I think you can kind of see it in the fourth photo. It’s quite hard to see, but adds a super-cool dimension to the polish. Something I never noticed in other swatches, purely because I wasn’t looking for it, was the lovely green-turquoise-blue micro-glitter throughout the polish. Glitter in the Air is essentially a grey-blue sheer jelly polish, with lovely pale blue and pale coppery-pink glitter floating around in it. If I had been more proficient in my application of Glitter in the Air, I wouldn’t have needed 3 coats of it – the glitter doesn’t always come off the brush and sometimes I needed to push the glitter round, or decided after it had dried that I needed more glitter (fussy, me?!) hence the 3 coats. In a nutshell (or not – I’m not very good at brief blogging!) the pictures show 2 coats of Barry M Blue Moon, followed by 3 coats of Glitter in the Air. I think it maintains the jellyish quality of Glitter in the Air quite well – and is neutral enough to allow the grey-blue tone of Glitter in the Air to dominate, rather than a blue which really isn’t present in the polish alone – see the bottle, I think my nails are similar enough! □ I layered Glitter in the Air over Blue Moon because the latter has a somewhat jellyish formula, so that the sheer-cum-jelly formula of Glitter in the Air wasn’t lost by layering it over a harsh, chalky pastel. Which personally, I love! Maybe I would love it even more if my nails weren’t so yuckily stained…! Anywho, I layered it over Barry M Blue Moon, to give the illusion of opacity, and it looked, ah-may-zing! Glitter in the Air was the second Deborah Lippmann polish my Andy gave me for Christmas… I am utterly overwhelmed by Deborah Lippmann, or at least the three I’ve tried, and eternally grateful for such wonderful gifts!Īs is well known in the blogosphere, Glitter in the Air is very sheer. □Īnyway, enough boring you all… I’ll do a full long synopsis of what’s happened in my life in 2011 on my (new!!!) lifestyle blog – ghostofmysoul… I’ll let you know when that’s up! The next day I went to visit my Granny in Wales. We then watched Lee Mack (hilarious!) – all in all it was a fab night. I can dream!) with his family & neighbours. Oh yeah, happy new year to you all □ how did you spend new year’s eve? Tell me! Or link me to your blog posts! I had a lovely evening with my Andy – he treated me to a marvelous meal out, then we watched the countdown on TV (man I love those fireworks! Did I ever tell you that one of my many life dreams/goals is to organise firework displays?! Never going to happen but. Sorry □ I will definitely do a new-year’s-themed nail post though… I have it on my nails right now! I wore Barry M Indigo, which I took photos of, but they just don’t come out right. so I didn’t get round to that new year’s nail polish because, well, I didn’t have one.
