Twinkle Lights ~ China Glaze




Hi Lacquer Lovers,
Today I have a very Christmas-y lacquer. When I saw China Glaze's Twinkle Lights, I just had to have it. It is such a nice shimmery glitter. I usually don't buy China Glaze because I have a hard time keeping it from chipping. I just had to give this one a try.
Twinkle Lights is mostly a gold micro-glitter with some red and green micro-glitter.


Here it is:












I am wearing 3 coats. Let me say that I was so excited to swatch this and take pictures that I forgot to put on a top coat! I think it would have shined even more if I did. This formula went on easily and it dried really fast but, I do have to say that it did chip the next day. Maybe I should try another base coat but, I really don't want to have buy or use a different base coat. Maybe someone will give me a suggestion? What do you think of this or do you have a different holiday glitter you like to wear?

    I think this would have looked better with a top coat.
