Glitter Week: Day 4, Wicked Polish

Welcome back to day 4 of Glitter Week!  It's going by fast, only a few more days and a few more posts featuring pretty glitters!  Today I have a brand that I swoon over frequently and you probably do too, Wicked Polish!  I've actually had the pleasure of meeting Rylee in person and let me tell you, she is as awesome as her polish is!  I will also say that when Wicked Polish restocks (in the shop or on Halrow & Co.) things sell out quick so make sure you are ready with your A-Game.  PS - don't ask me to pick a favorite because it's just not fair, I love them all equally!

Fairy Blood Splatter.  What can I say about this?  It's gorgeous.  It's pink.  That poor fairy.  Fairy Blood Splatter is a mix of "superfine pink glitter, fine and medium matte pink glitter and large purple glitter."   The purple glitters are sheer so they layer nicely over the pink glitters.  I think the base is supposed to be clear but mine has a pink tint to it.  Formula and application were both great.  Plenty of glitter came out and it was a cinch to apply.  I used 2 coats of Fairy Blood Splatter over 2 coats of Deborah Lippmann Before He Cheats.  I finished with 1 layer of topcoat.  

Stabbed By A Unicorn, my word!  Who wouldn't love a polish that has "real unicorn horn shavings, medium and large white hexs, a rainbow of medium neon hexs, teeny white stars all packed into a clear base with purple shimmer."?  It's so darn pretty I don't even care that there was unicorn poaching involved.  Formula and application were both fabulous!  Loads of glitter came out and was easy to spread on my nails.  I used 2 coats of Stabbed By A Unicorn over 2 coats of Sinful Colors Violets Are Blue.  I finished with 1 layer of topcoat.  

And lastly, Expired Pixie Dust.  I guess there wasn't enough clapping to revive this poor pixie.  Expired Pixie Dust is packed full of "neon pink squares, black holographic hearts, and a sprinkle of black and glimmering holo dust."  I love the color combination here.  It's so totally 80's and not in a bad way.  As with the others, formula and application were amazing.  So much pretty glitter came out, I was a happy camper.  I used 2 coats of Expired Pixie Dust over 2 coats of OPI This Gown Needs A Crown.  I finished with 1 layer of topcoat.  

Laka No 13 & Wicked Polish Fairy Blood Splatter

Top o' the morning to ya!  Ok, it's not really morning it's afternoon now.  I have been enjoying a little extra sleep in the morning these summer days.  My kids actually sleep in a little now, yay!  Only 1 more week and then back to the hustle and bustle of school.  I will have 2 out of 3 kids in elementary this year (if you consider Transitional Kindergarten as elementary, which I do).  But all that has nothing to do with polish does it?  So let's talk polish.

This lovely combo is Laka No 13 and Wicked Polish Fairy Blood Splatter.  I've picked up a couple Wicked Polishes in the last couple months and boy are they pretty!  Fairy Blood Splatter is a hot pink, translucent neon purple glitter and a little smidgen of shimmer in a clear base.  I can see this polish over many base colors; white, light pink, dark purple, etc...  But I went with a pretty medium blue creme.  Love how it turned out.  Fairy Blood Splatter had a lovely formula.  Lots of glitter came out and it spread well on my nails.  I used 2 coats and am very happy with the glitter payoff.  The base is Laka No 13 (there are no names for this brand, only numbers).  As far as I can tell you can order these online or if you are one of the lucky ones your mall has a small Kiosk.  Laka has some great polishes and hand care products.  I especially like the Hand Cream, Hand Scrub and Strawberry scented remover.  You can also get an "express" mani or pedi there!  How cool, right?  No 13 was a perfect polish!  It was creamy and easy to apply.  And it was a 1 coater!  I used 1 layer of topcoat.
