Reza and I had a short girl outing to the mall yesterday. She has been imploring for another nail polish color and I can’t say I blame her since most of my colors are dark in nature. So I took her to Sephora and let her pick out a color.
Wide eyed in front of the nail rack, she went from red, to purple, to glittery gold, and finally settling on this little number by O.P.I. for Sephora. Well played Reza, well played. I took the opportunity to do my own as you can see.
colors used:
Spark-tacular! top coat by O.P.I. for Sephora, Union Jack Black by Butter London, clear coat.
It’s pretty basic stuff really, 2 coats black, dust/stagger the glitter polish on the tips to look like your nail tips are dipped (1-2 coats depending on how you want it to look), top with clear coat. The glittery coat is clear based so it’s pretty fool proof.
enjoy!

Over a year ago, my family and I did the unthinkable and uprooted from the West to the East Coast. You can imagine the culture shock when a Mexican, West Coast girl lands herself in South New Jersey. If anything it has made for some ridiculous stories.

I have the same stuff in red. Wore it over red polish for my birthday and my nails looked like Dorothy’s slippers. Love.
I am becoming quite enamored with all this glittery nail polish which is so unlike me. You can blame Deborah Lippman.
Wow, that’s not my everyday glitter. I tend to like sparkles on my toes, but I *adore* the way your nails look. I may end up picking up that Sephora! Did Reza use it as her main coat?
She used it by itself. I’m sure it would look great over other colors but I wanted to keep it simple for her this time around.
