Etude House PBK803 Coco Black

Hello my lovelies! Good thing it's Friday cause this week has been less than great. I'm tired and behind on everything, including editing pictures. I do have some pictures ready, and they seem perfect for a start of the weekend. This is the second Etude House glitter I got from eBay. The first one was blue and I posted it at the beginning of the week (link here). This one is a layering glitter, so I swatched it using my beloved Nails Inc Baker Street as a base. Here's how they look together.

Isn't this a match made in heaven? There are a lot of black and white glitters out there, but this is the first in my collection. There's also some pink glitter in there to make it more interesting. The code on this polish is PBK803 and it seems the name is Coco Black. I'm sure this looks great over any color, but Baker Street makes it look truly amazing.

As I've mentioned before, there is black, white and pink glitter in there, in many shapes and sizes. There are even a few bar glitters that I'm not a fan of, but they are not that many so I don't mind too much. My absolute favorite is the square glitter, black and white. The pictures show one coat over 2 coats of Baker Street. The formula is pretty good, the glitter density is decent and you don't have to fish in the bottle. A little "strategic placement" is necessary to spread it evenly on the nail. Of course the huge enormous brush doesn't make that easy, but considering that it's the only flaw of these polishes, I will learn to live with it. It dries sort of matte, so top coat is needed to make it shiny.

I'm very happy that I picked this up when I got Celeb Girl. I can see myself layering this glitter over a lot of colors. It's the best way to spice things up without having a glitter bomb on your nails.
