Party glitter all over Essie - Play Date

Hey everyone, today I have some really cute glitter toppers to show you. Sadly I do not own any of them but I got to try them on my nails and that was good enough for me.

I don't have the names of any of these glitters :( I walked into a store randomly and they had a nail polish testing section (awesome!) so I layered them over my nails that were painted with Essie - Play Date and they turned out brilliant.

  • Little finger: a black and white glitter mix (bar, square, circle and hexagonal glitter)
  • Ring finger: red and purple bar glitter
  • Middle finger: a mix of glitter in multiple shapes and colors (red, blue, purple, silver, turquoise, white in squares, circles, bars and hexagons)
  • Index finger: a mix of red, dark and light blue, purple bar glitter and a rare gold hexagon.

I love them all; I can't seem to pick just one! Also, isn't Essie - Play Date the best color to layer glitter over?

Which is your favorite glitter mix?

Thanks for reading!

Essie - Play Date

Hey guys! Today I have Essie - Play Date to show you.

Essie - Play Date is a soft purple creme polish which is more beautiful in real life than in pictures. It is just the perfect summer color. The formula is excellent and the application was smooth. It's almost a 1-coater but I used 2 coats.
I know it looks like a pastel in the pictures taken with flash but it's not.

Honestly, if I had to pick one color that I would wear throughout the entire summer, I would have to say Essie - Play Date. I saw this question somewhere and I wondered if I could ever just go with one. After putting this on my fingers AND toes, I have found my perfect summer polish.


Here's a bonus pic of me wearing Play Date on my toes.

Do you have Play Date? Do you like it?

Thanks for reading! :)

Part 3 of my US haul

Here's the rest of my nail polish haul from the US. Some of my favorite nail colors are here and I'm excited to show them to you!

Orly - Glowstick
This is fantastic! I love this neon yellow. It's everything that a neon yellow should be. I would suggest layering it over white polish to make the color pop. It really does make a difference. I'll definitely be wearing this all summer long.

Maybelline Color Show - Impeccable Greys
I love gray polishes. Obsessed with gray polishes. Tell you what I think of this gray in a later post.

China Glaze Holographic - Infra Red
My first holographic nail polish everrr! I thought I'd already bought too many colors so I decided to pick one out of all the other polishes from the Holographic Collection. It was tough just settling on one!

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri - Lickety Lime Split
Ooh, I wish I hadn't bought this :( I have a similar green that's also from Sally Hansen. There is a difference in color but I wish I'd picked another color instead. That's the problem with thinking you have too few greens in your collection.

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri - Mint Sprint
Now this is a different story. I adore this minty green. It's bold and bright but not neon.

Essie - Play Date
I'm obsessed with Essie nail polish. They're worth every single penny! This is a really good orchid polish. It's almost a one coater - so rich and smooth that it just glides on!

I'm a clumsy nail painter so I usually accidentally fudge my nails before they dry and when that happens I can't seem to repair the damage but with Play Date, I just dabbed a little polish to cover the dent and it smoothed out so perfectly!

Essie - The Girls Are Out
I am in LOVE with Essie - The Girls Are Out. It is such a beautiful shade of magenta and the shimmer just adds to the loveliness. Great formula and super glossy finish - ideal! I've been wearing this a lot as well. Can't get enough of it.

Wait for the posts of the swatches!
