30 Day Challenge Day 17- Glitter

Hi lovebugs, how was everyone's Monday? Mine sucked immensely, I'll be very happy when it is over.  Car broke down, weather sucked, just a craptastic day.  But now I'm posting and I feel much better.  Doing my nails and blogging is a very relaxing thing for me, it totally calms me down and is the perfect end to a bad day!

I must have gotten 15 bottles of glitter polish out and couldn't decide what to do.  Then I remembered that I purchased this Barielle Falling Star polish the other day and hadn't tried it yet.  It is perfect for glitter day.  Now you know Dot....she had to throw a little sumthin' sumthin' in the mix.  Have a gander...

 

 
 
 

 
 

 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
Why is it that I always have one picture that is larger than the rest?Who knows? It's a big mystery!  Oh yes, the polish... isn't this pretty?  I really like the Barielle polish but I felt like it needed a little pop.  I did an accent nail with Essie Penny Talks and the dots are done with the same Barielle polish I used for the other nails.  You should all know by now I totally adore the Essie Chrome Collection and use it every chance I get!  I wasn't sure how Falling Star would dot with having glitter in it, but it went on just fine.  Application was a little tricky.  The first coat was fine but my second coat was a little thick and goopy.  I have heard other people had this same problem with this little blue darlin.  It really is a very unique polish.  The glitter in it is almost the exact color of Essie Penny Talks.  I definitely don't have anything like this in my very large collection.  And to think I picked this baby up at TJ Maxx for $2.99!  That's my kind of polish!
 
What do you guys think? Would you purchase this Barielle polish?  Dot is really happy with it, and if Dot is happy, everybody is happy!
