Glitter Sandwich! A gorgeous layering of shimmer, glitter & flakies.

I am officially OBSESSED with glitter sandwiches. That's the one where you layer a glitter between a sheer or jelly polish, and the glitter gets slightly muted and looks like it's glowing from within - PURE AWESOMENESS. I added flakies just for the heck of it.

For this absolute beauty, I layered two coats of Spoiled by Wet n Wild Checkin' Into Rehab, one coat of NYC Starry Silver Glitter, one more coat of Checkin' Into Rehab and THEN one coat of Zoya Chloe.

Sorry for the crappy quality on this bottle pic :( Still supremely missing my DSLR...



Feast your eyes on this...




Checkin' Into Rehab is a deep purple with a slight pink shimmer. It photographs bluer than it actually is, it's really a true purple with not as much blue as it shows here. As a result, the blue and silver glitter in Starry Silver Glitter stands out beautifully in real life. The pink/orange flakies in Chloe give it that extra pop of contrast and elevate the whole look. As amazing as it looks here, it really does look 100000x better in person! I couldn't stop staring at my nails.





You can just see the slight shimmer in Checkin' Into Rehab here. It's a pretty shade even on it's own.



I'm definitely going to be experimenting with all different polishes and glitters to create more gorgeous glitter sandwiches!

Are you a fan? Or do you prefer your glitter in a more traditional way?

  1. I don't have Daddy's Girl, but from swatches I've seen they look very very similar. I'd say maybe the flakies are slightly a different colour, but unless you're a super nail polish aficionado you would be fine with just one.
