For this mani I started with 2 coats of Pink-ing Of You. Although the result was somewhat sheer and uneven, I figured that adding the glitter topper would cover those imperfections.

I found I got great glitter coverage with just one coat. Note that this glitter is made to dry matte...... but I decided I would rather have a smoother, shiny finish so I added a coat of NYC Grand Central Station as a topcoat.

The result was really pretty!

OPI Pink-ing Of You

3 coats

from the 2013 Pink of Hearts duo for Breast Cancer Awareness

Every year I try to buy OPI's BCA product. Last year they added a glitter polish to make a duo, and this year they did that again and added some decals. I'm a bit clumsy with nail art, so I'm not sure I will use the decals, but I do love the idea.

Pink-ing Of You was a bit sheer and required 3 thicker coats, and on some fingers I felt like I could have done 4 to get better coverage, but the laziness in me kicked in and I stopped at 3. Hopefully I'll have time and there will be some sun soon so I can give the glitter a try.

NOTD: OPI Pink of Hearts 2012

Recently I was placing an online polish order and noticed that OPI had a 2012 release for their Pink of Hearts line so I of course had to get it! And this time there were two shades packaged together- a light pink called I Think in Pink and a glitter called You Glitter Be Good to Me.

I was super excited about this set because I suspected that You Glitter Be Good to Me was the pink version of Pirouette My Whistle from the Ballet collection... and I was not disappointed!

I Think In Pink

topped with

You Glitter Be Good to Me

It's so pretty and delicate and I am loving this combo. Sadly there is no sun today, but I still love it! The glitter was super easy to apply.

The sun did come out on Saturday just long enough for me to snap this pic above. Love it!
