Marc Jacobs ~ Desire
Clear red
shimmer
Yesterday I showed you Blue Velvet from Marc
Jacobs, and today I’m going to show you the other one I bought. It’s red and
shimmery and very beautiful, wait and see.
The formula is really good and the polish need two
easy coats to reach full opacity. The drying time is good. Desire has a thinner
consistency than Blue Velvet so this is not a true one coater like its sister.
But here it is: Two coats and no topcoat in the sun:
I added glitter because I love glitter. I used #656
from Nilens Jord. It’s a lovely mix of orange hexes and glitters in a clear
base. I dipped the brush once in the bottle for each nail. The drying time is
average.
Here’s how beautiful it is over Desire.
I added holo flecks as well! I used my faithful topper
from El Corazón. It’s number 421h/25.
Here’s the final result in the sun:
And this is what it looks like in the shade.
The pretties:
Desire is also a winner in my book. I actually wanted
to buy 1 or 2 Marc Jacobs polishes more, but the rest they had were all crèmes
and I’m not so hooked on that, as you may know by now :)

DeleteIt looks great and I would consider buying a a more expensive red since it's a color that I wear a lot.
