Layering with Revlon Icicles

Hello again!

You know I don't think Revlon's Icicles has been swatched before - the only blog post I've been able to find was a rather stunning bottle shot taken by another Aussie nail polish blogger, Kaz at Pretty Random (here) as part of her extensive gallery of HTF Revlon polishes.  Icicles is a sheer glitter polish released as one of Revlon's Snowglobes collection from back in 2003 I think.  It's a gentle mix of blue iridescent glitter in a  sheer pink polish base which makes it look opalescent and very pretty.  I was lucky enough to snap this bottle up for around a meagre $4AUD in Cosmetics Plus whilst on holiday in Queensland late last year.

I applied two coats of Icicles over another Revlon polish, the hot Coral Me Wild.  Looking at my casual application here (darn glitter everywhere!) I'll need to do a reswatch to capture the true beauty but try and enjoy these pictures anyway as they give you some idea of the soft sparkle.

I'm going to try this polish over a soft pastel shade next time I swatch it.

Until my next post
