Glitter Gal - Dark Purple Sparkle Holo + Crackle


GLITTER GAL – Dark Purple Sparkle Holo


Hi Goddesses



Today I have another Glitter Gal for you.  It never ceases to amaze and amuse me how I am able to apply this perfectly – I swear it’s cos I’m too scared to waste a drop!





After my Dark Purple (slight) disappointment (it’s more fuchsia than purple) and my Red Sparkle joy, I bought the lovechild of the two, Dark Purple Holo Sparkle!  And I have to say, it IS darker – hurrah!





The sparkles use a slighter coarser holographic particle, so they don’t have the natural grace of the pure Glitter Gal holos, but they sure do pack a punch.  This dark purple is a frosty grape colour with what looks like rainbow sugar in it.




As always, this dances best in pure light, and when she dances, she dances yellow, green, blue, orange and the purity of light itself.




I think next time I’m going to put one coat of a purple crème underneath to see how much dazzle she gives when lit from below.



This was the polish with which I chose to start my new 2 Day Rule.  During the week, I have to wear the polish for 2 days, and on the 2nd day, do something different with it (to try to ahem “enhance” my “art” skills lol).




With this is started easy and layered Barry M Purple Rain crackle on top to see just how much holo peaked through.  To be fair, there’d probably be more if it wasn’t rainy and November, but it looked pretty.



Finally I added some Northern Lights Out The Door ILM (how many names) holographic top coat to put a teensy bit of sparkle back.



I liked this – it made it slightly different, like a demented purple crocodile lol.


Enjoy xx J

Top Tip – if you’re ever unsure what a nail colour looks like, go to Google images, which will give you plenty of contrasts and compares.
