Deborah Lippmann~Glitter in the Air

Hello my new favorite color!  Deborah Lippmann was inspired to create Glitter in the Air by P!nk's performance of her song Glitter in the Air, on the 2010 Grammys.  That performance was so beautiful and amazing, just like this polish.  I have been staring at this polish on my nails for four days now and been trying to think of what I wanted to say about it.  I still can't quite descibe it, except to say that it is beautiful. 

Glitter in the Air is a milky pale sheer blue creme base with pink and light blue larger hex glitter, pieces of small pink and silver glitter with a hint of tiny blue shimmer.  I used 3 coats and topped it with Deborah Lippmann Addicted to Speed top coat.  Perfection!




I got my Glitter in the Air at Nordstom, but you can also find it at http://www.deborahlippmann.com/. 

And for you viewing pleasure, the peformance that inspired the polish, Glitter in the Air~

Diamond Dry Top Coat Review


I picked up a bottle of Diamond Dry Top Coat at Sally's a couple of weeks ago.  They were having a deal- buy 2 China Glaze and receive a free Diamond Dry Top Coat.  The first time I tried it, was on my toe nails.  It dried nicely, no bubbles and VERY shiny.  I loved how shiny it was.  This was about 10 days ago and they are still shiny!  I tried it a few days later on my nails.  It was very shiny, but I had some drying issues.  I noticed it didn't dry as fast as I thought it did on my toes and I smudged it pretty good on a few nails.  It also didn't last as long as my favorites(Out the Door, Seche Vite, or Zoya).  When it chipped, it was nig chips. 

So, in my opinion, Diamond Dry gets bonus points for shinyness, but I am glad it was free and I definitely would not pay the $7.99 price they want for it.
