Platinum and gold



Today I have a quick mani I did for a group challenge. The challenge was to use the colors platinum or gold or both if you wanted to. I chose to do both. 

I used Barielle's Platinum Ring as my base color, then used American Apparel's Meteor Shower on top of all but one of my nails. 


The Barielle polish went on like a dream, I love their formula. I only had to use 1 coat to get full coverage. 






The American Apparel polish..... it served its purpose and that is about all I can say right now. It is NOT my favorite polish that is for sure. I am going to give it a few more tries before it is cast into the you are a waste of polish bin.

Yeah I'm giving you the stink eye Mr. Polish!




So there ya have it, my platinum and gold nails. What is your favorite platinum polish? Have you tried any polishes from Barielle or American Apparel? 



*All products purchased by me, all opinions are my own because nobody tells me what to say!*


Peace, Love and Cupcakes!

  1. I have an issue with those irregular, jagged glitters as well, they're such a pain to work with! The mani still turned out cute though, babe ;-)

    1. Thank you :o)
      I had such high hopes for the American Apparel polish. I'm going to try it again and see what happens though.
