American Apparel Hunter + Sinful Colors Call You Later glitter

Hunter by American Apparel is a medium hunter green creme.  Although I’m not a fan of AA’s thin, skimpy brush, it did apply this polish evenly in two coats.  It dries to a glossy finish and tends to look almost black indoors.

I have a lot of untried Sinful Colors glitters that I’ve been itching to bust out, so I painted Call You Later on top.  It’s a clear base packed with different sizes of fine golden olive and emerald green glitter.

It works like a dream over Hunter’s dark base.  Mmm, green sparklies.

This is one coat – all that’s really needed for an application like this, because the glitter is so dense.  I loved the depth and interest it added!  Since the glitter is finely textured this wasn’t much of a problem to take off – a nice bonus since the hassle of removing glitters can deter me from wearing them.  I just used a cotton ball and my regular non-acetone Cutex nail polish remover.

Enjoy!

Petites Color Fever Daze

All the Color Petites I’ve tried so far have been impressive – good quality, a wide range of colors, smooth application.  Daze is no exception.  It’s a bitter apple green microglitter (almost a glass fleck) in a jelly base.  3 coats gave me the VNL-less coverage you see here.

I will have to play with this one more before summer’s over.  Daze is a welcome break from the crush of mint green cremes that seem to be so popular this season.  I can also imagine using it for an awesome Halloween mani with black shatter on top!! *makes a note to self*

The Petites Color Fever line can be purchased at RiteAid.

Playing with my Kryolan UV aquacolors again.

Could have gotten a little closer to my lashline, but let’s forget that and move on 😉
