So yesterday was my mom's birthday and the 7th (Sunday) is my birthday! My nephew is due in two weeks, so he too will also be a September baby. Anyone else have a birthday in September? Since it's almost my birthday I've had the urge to wear some of the birthday themed polishes that I own. Today I have one that I wore a few days ago. It's GlitterDaze Birthday Bow-nanza, a limited edition glitter that was sold, along with a pink creme, in celebration of the 2nd anniversary of GlitterDaze.
Birthday Bow-nanza is such a stunning glitter! Everything about it is totally adorable. It's a mixture of pink, white, and holographic gold glitters. There's bar glitter, circles, diamonds, hearts, stars, and bows, all of which is in a clear base. I've never had a polish with bows but they're very cute. Unfortunately I only got one on my thumb. I forgot to turn my bottle upside down, like I usually do with most of my glitters before application, but next time I'll see if that helps.
For my base I used two coats of Sinful Colors Starfish, which I absolutely love. It's a super pale bubblegum pink that I think is very wearable, especially for those of you that might not be too fond of pinks. Application of Birthday Bow-nanza was pretty easy. For being so glitter dense, the base wasn't as thick as I thought it would be. Unfortunately it did take a while to dry but I'm pretty sure that was because I didn't let my first coat fully dry before applying the second. I only had to use one coat of Rica Glossy Glam to get a smooth finish.
I'm so in love with Birthday Bow-nanza! I especially love how it looked over Starfish but now I'm eager to try it over a brighter bubblegum pink. The next post you'll see from me will be on my birthday. I have the most perfect glitter for the occasion and the combo I came up with is a little unexpected but I just love it and can't wait to share with you all. Thank you so much for stopping by!

Such a pretty glitter!! Happy birthday to you and your mom!
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
DeleteThis is such a sweet and happy glitter mix, it looks great over Starfish. I got a little mini of GlitterDaze Diamonds in the Sky with a blogsale purchase but I can't figure out what to layer it over. Do you know this one, Mellisa? It has a blue base with loads of silver holo glitters in it, including diamonds. I guess I'll try to match a blue with the base and use that. If I were braver I'd try it on its own as I think it was made to be worn that way, but given the mess I've made with glitters lately I'm scairt.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what you'll do for your birthday!
Thank you! I love when I find a great base for a glitter. Sometimes it can be a bit of a guessing game.
DeleteI just found a swatch of Diamonds In The Sky and it's a pretty polish. I can't think of anything at the top of my head that you can layer it over, but I'm sure whatever you pick will turn out gorgeous. You've done a lot of great combos, especially with Hare Polish!
What a fun and festive glitter! Nice layering! :)
