All That Glitters - Cha Cha Twist

Hi Goddesses   



Oh.
My.
God.





From the moment I first saw this polish, I thought it was sublime.  The awesome perfect clash of blue and red, the effortless variety of colour and glitter, the epic shininess and dazzle ......




Oh.
My.
God.



This is Cha Cha Twist, and this baby comes from an Etsy seller called All That Glitters.  Kirsten doesn't seem to be as well known as some of the other frankeners, but honestly, tell me this polish is not a work of art.







With this post I have also done something I have never done before - blogged the polish within an hour of wearing it, because I just *couldn't* wait to share how beautiful this is.




This is beyond stunning.   A teally blue syrup, filled with -

* red glitter, various sizes
* blue glitter, various sizes, with a holographic dazzle
* micro aqua holographic sparkle
* blue bar glitter
* larger, silvery hexes






Oh.
My.
God.




I've been disappointed too many times by a glitter (usually red) that wasn't opaque enough to be worn on its own, so I decided on some CG For Audrey as underwear.  Actually, I think this would have looked gorgeous on its own, although I suspect it would have needed 3 coats.





I planned to do 2 full layers of the glitter, but as I watched the first coat dry, I noticed how the tips looked darker, as that is where most of the first coat glitter settles, and a gradient was born.   I LOVE how this looks like a demented mermaid on Sparkle Day - there's some real pretty aquaticness going on.




I am 1000000% in love with this polish and what's more, I have about 6 others to show you from Kirsten.




All together now, one last time -


Oh.
My.
God.



:)  xx Enjoy.
