Teal and Holo and Shimmer, Oh My!

Afternoon glittery polish lovers! Since today is my Gospel Choir concert and our colors this semester are teal and grey, I'd offer up my teal mani for you guys to enjoy! :D



To begin this simple mani off, I used 2 coats of Sinful Colors Rise and Shine. It's a blue-green teal that  has subtle silver and blue-green micro shimmer, and the polish dries to a somewhat rubbery finish. I'm not a fan though, so I knew I had to change it up a bit.



I got out one of my lemmings. The awesome China Glaze Fairy dust, which is a gorgeous shimmery silver and holo top coat. It was a bit thicker than the spectraflair holo top coat I have, but my the results are stunning. And the holo doesn't look 'dirty' when not in sunlight all the time, for there is silver glitter in there too. I love this! I can't wait to show these babies off on stage :) I give this a 8/10 for glitter and a 9/10 for application.
