NOTD: Flirt + After Party

I recently decided that, after all of my pale pink and nude manicures for work, I needed something dark and glittery on my nails! I decided on Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear Nail Color in Flirt, a deep warm purple with shimmer in it, with Icing's nail polish in After Party on top. After Party is one of my go-to glitter top coats; it has irregularly shaped pieces of purple, blue, red, and gold glitter in it, and it is so much fun to wear.




After Party doesn't lay flat on the nail, so I needed two layers of Seche Vite to smooth things out and keep the glitter from snagging on anything. I didn't mind, though; it's so much fun to wear, and I love the way it popped against the dark background of Flirt. I think I may try After Party on top of a nude or shimmery tan (like China Glaze Fast Track or SOPI I Only Wear Vintage...) next!

Do you guys have either of these nail polishes? What do you think of them?

    Funny, I think I own After Party, but I don't think I've worn it yet. And I was so excited for it! Will have to fix that soon!

      Ooh, you should definitely play around with it! I can't wait to see your swatches of it and hear how you like it.

    Found you through your Illamasqua Growl review (looking into getting it).
    Love your blog and these nails!

      Thanks, Coco! It's a great lipstick, if you like the color and choose to get it I'm sure you won't regret it!

    Hi Sarah, I love how you've layered all the glitter toward the tip; what a beautiful effect!

      Thank you! I think it is an interesting change of pace from an all-over glitter top coat!
