Anny ~ Denim Darling

Anny ~ Denim Darling

Textured denim blue with white bar glitter

I bought this beautiful blue polish last time I was in Germany. It’s a lovely denim blue which came with a couple of surprises when I wore it:

1. I didn’t know it was a textured polish
2. I hadn’t seen that it had bar glitter in it 

I don’t mind that kind of surprises though. The formula is good and I used two easy coats for full opacity. The drying time was good on the first layer and a bit slower on layer two, which is not uncommon for textured polishes.

The stamping design I used is from Lina’s stamping plate “Make your mark 06” and I stamped with El Corazón’s stamping polish “White”.

I topped the whole thing with a layer of Out the Door’s holo glitter topcoat “Northern Lights”. There’s an additional layer of topcoat over the whole thing to smooth out the texture.

Here’s my final manicure taken in ordinary daylight, no sun:

This is “Denim Darling” on its own; two coats an no topcoat. The bar glitter is visible here.

These are the things I used for this manicure.

I don’t know if I would have bought this Anny polish if I had actually seen there was bar glitter in it. But it’s a lovely blue and I actually don’t think it looks bad in this polish – so it gets to stay with me.

Note: She needs a lot of topcoat to be smooth on the nails. I’m wearing two layers of topcoat and she’s still bumpy.

Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Good after coat number 1, a bit slower after coat number 2.

Finish: Texture with bar glitter
Overall impression: Great colour and formula!

Buy again: Yes I probably would
