Topshop NOTD: Gypsy Night

 Happy Monday everyone - let's get onto the first of my Topshop NOTD's!

I felt Topshop's Gypsy Night polish had "date night" written all over it when I saw it, so of course I wore it out to dinner last Saturday night.  This black glitter polish has a jelly-like translucency to show the multi-coloured glitter to its full effect but worn on its own could look a bit murky like muddy water on the nail.  I applied a single coat of Revlon's Black Lingerie as the base to get the black opacity I wanted and then applied two coats of GN.  The glitter looks multi-tonal in the bottle but the warm copper glitter really dominated the look on the nail.  I prefer more of a rainbow but it still has a bit of oomph.

It was another sunless day so I used lamplight to pick up the sparkle:

Thanks for looking as always. That's it for tonight.

  4. I have a China Glaze that sort of looks like this, but this one is more awesome! I love the little nuances in color and the different glitters.
