Purple with Pink Flakies!

 I layered Covergirl- Pink Twinkle over Essie- She's Picture Perfect. I really liked how this combination turned out. It's very girly! 
 Currently Covergirl doesn't make nail polish. I'm really hoping that they start again. This bottle of Pink Twinkle is a few years old. I got it from a blog sale. It has flakies in a lightly tinted pink base. I applied two coats of it over She's Picture Perfect.
It was very reflective! This mani wore pretty well too! It lasted three days without any chips.
 Here's Essie- She's Picture Perfect with the flash before I added Pink Twinkle. I am wearing two coats of it. The formula was perfect! It was a little thick, but it was perfect for even application. It is from the 2012 Resort Collection.
There is a VERY subtle iridescent pink shimmer and it was kind of hard to capture. Here is a picture of it without the flash. In person it looked like more of a creme.

Here are some new additions:
Top Row: OPI DS Sapphire, OPI- Keep off the Grass, OPI- Fiercely Fiona, and Zoya- Frida
Bottom Row: NYC Haunted and Enchanted, Happy Hands Lacquer- Flowers on the Highway, and Candy Lacquer- Honey Bee

  3. I have not seen any CGirl polishes in years. I like shades like this that will give a little glow to a good cream. I have some Revlon Fiz favs that I keep going back to - no glitter and no big flakies. Glad to see you got DS Sapphire. Pretty shade.

    1. I wish that Covergirl still made polish. I wonder why they stopped. I have a couple of the old school Nail Slicks and I would love to get one of their old crackles. I was able to snag DS Sapphire in a blog sale for close to retail price! :) One more checked off of my list for the holographic DS shades.

  4. I loved Covergirl Boundless Color polishes. I still have some and one of them is Pink Twinkle. I still have it and it's full for the most part. I'm not sure why they stopped being made. I remember seeing them in Target and literally a few days later, they were gone. Great haul by the way! OPI DS Sapphire looks amazing. I also really want to get Happy Hands Lacquer Flowers on the Highway. It's so cute!

    1. Flowers on the Highway is going to look neat over so many colors! I miss CG polishes :( I haven't seen any in stores for years so whenever I see them on blog sales I buy them ASAP!
