Stealing From Charity in the sun!

So my grandma is back at home from the hospital, so hopefully I will have an inch of time again. So today I bring you shimmery nails.

I used two coat of Don't Burst My Bubble, a lovely sheer nude. I adore this so much, it made my nails look lighter and they also kept a nice nail line. It pretty just made my nails look better than they really are.

I added one coat of Stealing From Charity by Fanchromatic Nails (I LOVE IT). I adore this polish , it's amazing glitter polish. I think their site says it best "it's a soft sheen of iridescent red, filled in liberally with gold, copper, silver, and bronze glitter and microflakes in various shapes and sizes.", for real this is my favorite things ever.

For my accent nails (thumb and ring finger) I added a thin coat of OPI Oy-Another Polish Joke, just to add a little punch of gold on my nails.

I adore Stealing From Charity, I left this on for almost five days, and I only had a tiny bit of chipping. It was so pretty, and it looks great in the sun. I need a full size of this, it's so very pretty.

Fanchromatic Nails - Rebel Heart

This is another one of the polishes I bought from Fanchromatics nails, it's name is Rebel Heart. It is one of the best glitter polishes I have ever seen. I am already in love with Fanchromatics after trying two polishes.

Rebel heart is an amazing red-orange shimmer, it had both gold and red micro-flakes, and two sizes of gold hexes and mini gold circles.

I did no cleanup before taking pictures so don't let that take away from the pure love that is Rebel Heart.

When I first saw pictures online I thought it just looked okay and bought it purely because it was Star Trek themed. I have never been so wrong about a polish.

On my thumb and ring I put it over OPI Kennebunk-Port, because I thought it would need something under it. I think it is a good idea, just so that you can use only one or two coats of Rebel Heart, but I honestly don't really see that much of Kennebunk-Port under it, since it is a very cherry red colour.

I dabbed Rebel Heart over GOSH Nero on the rest of my fingers, just to test how it would cover on black. I Think it worked wonderfully, although I ended up liking it better on the second test when I did a much thinner coat.

Rebel Heart is named after the Star Trek character Kira Nerys who fought as a rebel during the Cardassian occupation of Bajor. She was later a Major on DS9 where she worked as the first officer with a Federation Commander. She has strength, and so much passion to fight for what she believes in, I think this polish fits her better than anything.

This is just a test to see how smooth other polishes would go over and just to see what a thin back coat looks like. I really like it both ways, the polish applies super easy just like the other one I got. 100% would recommend, and I already personally regret that I only got a mini-bottle. I will for sure buy a full bottle when this runs out.

My dream polish, Between Two Worlds by Fanchromatic Nails

I have been waiting for this polish for only a short time as Lynae from Fanchromatics is awesome and sent them right away. I was actually surprised to receive them so soon. Even though I only ordered Between Two Worlds recently, I have been lusting over it for just over a year I would say. It was the polish I always thought about, yet due to moving a lot I never felt good about ordering as I wouldn't know where to send it.

I wanted to play with all the polishes I ordered, but then I fell off my bike and hurt my wrist, so I couldn't really manage more than one colour since I don't have a lot of movement with the swelling. Since I felt like this polish stand out enough on it's own,  I picked it out as the polish I would try first from my order.

Right - Two coats of Between Two Worlds on it's own.

I adore this polish, I found the application flawless. I love the lilac coloured jelly that the glitter is in, and the glitter is an amazing mix of copper, green (holographic), and brown hexes and smaller silver and green circles. I love how much glitter this polish has, as you can see in the nail I did one coat over Stand By Your Manny, it has great coverage.

Two coats Stand By Your Manny and two coats Between Two Worlds.

I used it over another polish as it is a jelly base so there will be nail line if you don't use a lot of coats, but I love how it looks in any light, I am 100% in love with this polish!  The glitter came out really even and dried pretty fast, so I didn't feel like I was waiting forever while I waited to put the next coat on.

Natural Light - Shade

The polish is based off of Tora Ziyal a character from Star Trek DS9, she is one of my favourites, which is how I found this lovely polish in the first place. The character is caught between her Bajorian heritage and her Cardassian father, so the name is perfect for her. 

Natural Light

Over all it is my new favourite glitter polish and is for sure something really special. I can't wait to try out the other polishes that I ordered with this one.
