Pink Glitter Nail Polish

My toes are now Essie 'Merino Cool' and my nails are Revlon 'Pink Chiffon.' I bought glitter polish for E, but I'm eyeing it. Dare I?

Pale pink nails with glitter. The nine year old girl in me is SO SUPER HAPPY! The 30 year old me will leave it at least until the morning.

Morning came, and the 30-year-old me is so super happy too.

    That is super cool! Keep it on :)

    Do you usually do your nails yourself?
    How do you keep them so neat?

      I’ve had a professional manicure maybe three times in my life? So yes, I do it myself. The results aren’t as good as the pro job, but I’m not too bad at it. I hardly ever have time these days though, so I usually don’t have any polish on.

    Super cute! And your rings are gorgeous! *swoon*

    Oh, oh, oh! I love it! I need to pick up some glitter polish. What a playful touch.

    Fun! I bought my first glitter nailpolish this past Christmas. The only problem – removing it! Mine is by Opi and I don’t know if that makes a difference, but it was the toughest nail polish I’ve ever removed. :[

      I remember glitter polish as being difficult to remove. I guess I’ll find out if that’s the case with this one soon.

        I have one, it’s actually much easier to remove. I think it’s because the glitter is super fine and since it’s sheer the polish isn’t as thick.

    Awh! so cute! okay for the 36 year old me? hmmm….

    Cute! I (at 32) love glitter polish, such a fun little touch. :)

    I heard a tip about removing it. Apparently the key is exposure time to the remover, so if you soak a cotton pad in remover, then hold it on the nail for a while or wrap bits of foil on your fingertips to kind of clamp it on there for a few minutes, it comes off much easier. I know foil hands sound odd but apparently it works.

      I hope I don’t have to use foil! I’ve never even heard of that. I’ll see how the extra time plays out.

    That’s crazy, I just bought/applied Merino Cool last night. I’m totally digging it.

    I have that SH glitter nail but in a diamond finish. I tried it over gray and it looked amazing!

    love, Love, LOVE!!! :)

    I 26, and don’t know if I’ll ever be able to give up my glitter polish. I say we wear it until we’re 80!

  16. Glade July 22, 2011 at 12:38 pm #

    Love! The 16 year old in me is going to do this tonight! Keep ‘em till they start cracking!

  17. nicole July 22, 2011 at 2:10 pm #

    i’m nearly 30, and i love glitter in all aspects — it’s so happy and fun! <3

    as far as removal goes, acetone polish remover is the key!

    What timing you have! I was at a doctor’s appointment yesterday where the receptionist’s nails were lavender-glitter, and I could not keep my eyes off them. So pretty and a contrast to my red nails. I leave there thinking “Hmm..must try glitter…or not?”

    Then I see your post. Now I say “YES” to glitter.

    Um, I would slap on another 2 coats of that glitter polish and live up that inner 9 year old. Surely a little sparkle never hurt anyone!

    I am loving the glitter! Last August, I went with glitter and oversized heart sparkles:

    I love it. I like to use Martha’s glitter on my nails. I’ve decided I prefer it on my feet. There’s just something really fun about sparkles.

    Essie Merino Cool really is…cool :) but it is not sold in Italy. Almost any cosmetic house has produced their own version of this “mud” color in the last 2 years, after Chanel’s Particulière. Mine is Mavala Mauve Cendré, which I am also wearing on my toes.

    I also like to paint my nails a different color from my toes; while I usually put Mavala Rose Dust on my nails, today I am wearing Mavala Velvet.

    These bottles are only 5ml so you can stock up on them and never ever have to throw them away half-empty & all dried up.

    LOVE it!! I would do it in a heart beat!!

    I love your nails. They are too adorable! I am also very much into pink glittery nail polish and may have to try your idea!
