Advent Calendar Day 10:
Today's theme is Lights. I love looking at Christmas lights, especially when it's snowing. I chose these two polishes because they reminded me of looking at twinkling Christmas lights on a snowy night. I did a glitter gradient to represent the hanging icicle lights. I really love the way this manicure turned out. I used two of my new polishes: Orly Tiara which is a very glitter dense polish with silver glitter and Orly Space Cadet which is a really cool duochrome polish. I used two coats of Space Cadet and did one coat of Tiara with a small second coat at the end of the nail.The verdict:
Tiara: A really great silver glitter. The formula was not too thick and it had a generous amount of glitter per swipe. It didn't get clumpy and you don't have to dig in the bottle for glitter. A great staple.
Space Cadet: This is such a cool polish. In the store I thought it looked blue, then at home it looked pink and then purple. In the pictures, it has a purple copper quality. It's a little pricier at $10 but I'd say it's well worth it for the cool factor.
