L. A. Girl ~
Rock Star ~ Overdose
Clear base
packed with purple and blue glitters
I wanted to wear this polish on its own, but after
having applied the first coat I realized that I might as well give that up
right away and layer it over another polish. Otherwise it would possibly have
made me sit up all night and half the following day applying layer after layer
to make it opaque.
So I started with one coat of Essence’s “Black is back”,
which is a black crème. This glided on easily and almost covered properly in
one coat. Had I been wearing it on its own I would have applied a second coat,
but since it was only working as underwear for Overdose, I couldn’t be
bothered. Drying time for this Essence was surprisingly on the slow side. It’s
the first time I’ve experienced that with an Essence product.
Anyway, this post isn’t about Essence, so I applied
two very easy coats of Overdose. The glitter spread out easily, no problems
with it at all. Drying time was again a bit on the slow side, but not
dramatically boring. :D
Here’s how it looks. Two coats of L. A. Girl’s
Overdose and one coat of Poshé top coat:
Nice, eh?
Here’s a blurry pic so you can see how the glitter
shines. It’s sooooo pretty!
The name “Rock Star” is definitely well picked, in my
opinion. I love this mani!

Ooh so pretty!! I love chunky glitters too but a glitter like this really reminds me how much I like multi coloured micro glitters.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've seen a size glitter I didn't like yet. I've seen quite a few brands mix blue and purple glitters. I'll see what I have, and perhaps do a comparison post about them. :)
DeleteWow, that's really pretty :-) I love all the different colours we can see.
ReplyDeleteI felt very bling-y wearing this polish. :) Yay!
DeleteVery sparkly indeed! I wonder if I have something similar or if I have to add this to my wishlist. :)
