Glitter Gal 3D Nail Polish in White Sparkle



Photo Source: Rebecca Likes Nails

White Sparkle by Glitter Gal is a pearly white with a pink to green duo chrome and chunky holographic glitter. White Sparkle is somewhat sheer so if you don't want to use three to four coats of this I would suggest using a white or similar toned base. I hate that this nail polish brand is located in Australia so it is super hard to get ahold of if you live in the United States. The GlitterGal online store does have an international shipping option but its $22.00 AUD so almost $23.00 USD. This polish retails for $11.95 AUD and is only 9ml but I think it is totally worth the price since it is such a unique color. 

*I received this product for free from GlitterGal but all opinions are my own and COMPLETELY HONEST.*

Sinful Colors Nail Polish in Queen of Beauty


Photo Source: Kitty Polish

Sinful Colors retails for $1.99 mostly at Walgreen's but I have seen a few shades at my local Wal-Mart. I have not seen this shade at Wal-Mart though. Queen Of Beauty was the first Sinful Colors nail polish that I ever purchased and the reason I am now addicted. The formula of this nail polish is a little thin, but that's just fine with me since I purchased it with intentions to use it as a top coat and not by itself. If you want to wear this alone without another polish underneath it will take four to five coats to look decent. I usually use this on my accent nail and it turns out great!

Revlon Nail Polish in Galaxy

Revlon's nail polish in Galaxy was released with their Just Add Sparkle collection. This line of nail polish was intended to be sold as a duo with a cream color as the base color, but I only picked up the glitter top coat. The accompanying color for Galaxy was Lunar which is a black creme nail polish which I already had from another brand. Galaxy is a clear base with blue and silver specks of glitter and larger holographic pieces. I do like the glitter combination of this nail polish, but it isn't very dense. Galaxy is definitely a polish that you will want to wear as a top coat and definitely not alone.

China Glaze Nail Polish in Party Hearty


Photo Source: Product Girl

Party Hearty by China Glaze was released with their 2010 Holiday Collection. It is a mix of large red hexagonal glitter, medium green hexagonal glitter and small gold and silver glitter with a clear base. Party Hearty has been my go to holiday manicure ever since I purchased it. I have never worn it alone. I typically wear it on top of a gold or green shade but it would even look great on top of a white or red. This was a limited edition nail polish so you won't be able to find it in stores but you might be able to find it at Ebay or at other online stores. 

Wet N Wild Nail Polish in Party Of Five Glitters

Wet N Wild released Party of Five Glitters when the rainbow glitter nail polishes were all the rage. This was the first rainbow glitter nail polish that I picked up and I like it, but its not my favorite. Party of Five Glitters is  a mix of baby blue, green, turquoise, fuchsia, red and silver in different sized hexagonal shaped glitter. Some people said that this could be a dupe to Deborah Lippman's Happy Birthday but it's definitely not. This glitter  is one that is more of a top coat, not a stand alone polish. If you love nail polish like I do, I would suggest picking this up since it's still a pretty glitter for only $1.99.

Sephora by OPI Nail Polish in Looks Like Rain, Dear


Photo Source: Glitter Obsession

I picked up this nail polish sometime around Christmas last year to wear for New Year's Eve and I did. Looks Like Rain, Dear is a metallic opaque gold with tons of chunky iridescent gold. If you just want a sheer coat of glitter and sparkle just do one coat but if you want you can build it up in about two to three coats. Looks Like Rain, Dear was originally released with a holiday collection a couple of years ago but it is now part of the permanent Sephora by OPI line. The Sephora by OPI nail polishes retail for $9.50.

Orly Nail Polish in Bubbly Bombshell


Picture Credit: Imperfectly Painted

Orly's Bubbly Bombshell was originally released with the Pin-Up Collection in the Summer of 2011. Bubbly Bombshell is a clear based glitter. Orly describes it as purple but it seems more fuchsia to me. This nail polish is chock full of glitter in two different sizes, a micro glitter and some hexagonal pieces as well. You can either use this as a top coat or you can use it by itself. By itself Bubbly Bombshell takes about two to three coats to become completely opaque. Like all glitter polishes you will definitely want to use a top coat to bring out the true shine and sparkle of this nail polish.

Orly Spellbound Flash Glam FX Collection




Orly recently re-released three of the polishes from their Flash Glam FX collection in a trio for Halloween. The three colors are Monster Mash (Green), Right Amount Of Evil (Orange), and R.I.P. (Black and Red). On the displays in store they also have Liquid Vinyl which is from their permanent collection. The Flash Glam FX polishes retail for $10.00 but Liquid Vinyl is only $8.50. If you purchase them at Ulta, like I did, right now they are buy two get one free. I picked up all three of the Flash Glam FX polishes but skipped on Liquid Vinyl as I already have a black creme polish. I really like these polishes and hope they release more colors in the future as I missed out on the original release.

Wet N Wild Wild Shine in Sparked


1 Coat
This a super pretty pink glitter with some silver glitter in it as well. There is definitely more pink as you can tell.  This retails for only $0.99!!! How can you go wrong?!? This is a great glitter for underneath crackle polishes, especially black. It would be nice on top of a pink nail polish too. I've even used it to do a "glitter nail" and paint the rest of my nails another color. I can get away with one coat, but I usually do two just so it would be ever more opaque. This is pretty close to OPI Teenage Dream from the Katy Perry collection. I wouldn't call it an exact dupe, but its definitely close.

Barielle Jess' Champagne Toast


This polish is absolute GORGEOUS. This was part of their 2010 Holiday Hustle collection. I just picked it up recently when they had two days where if you ordered you would get free shipping. On top of that the nail polishes were buy 1 get 1 half off. So for two nail polishes it cost me $12.00 USD. I thought that was a great deal. The polishes normally retail for $8.00 USD a piece. Barielle describes it as a "Metallic violet with rose gold glitter."  I definitely agree on the lavender/violet part but not on the color of the glitter. The micro-glitter in this is pink and blue. None the less, this is still a very unique color. The glitter almost "sinks" to the bottom so you don't see it as much as I would like.
