A Million Sparkles has lots of lovely glitter - bright blue glitter, hexagonal gold glitter, pink bar glitter and tiny blue bar glitter. Now I'm not a fan of bar glitter generally but this applied well and didn't stick out anywhere.
For this mani I used 2 coats of Fly and one coat of A Million Sparkles. It was a little gritty as all glitters are but really not too bad. One coat of Poshe was fine, 2 was even better.

Outside in the sun - see how sparkly this is!
Although this is blurry look how pretty this is, this was taken in the evening under artificial light:
OK, now on to OPI Fly. It's a gorgeous blueish cream. I saw blueish because to me it's not exactly blue, but it's not green or teal either. Maybe it has a touch of teal, my camera gave me different colours so see what you think:
I think this is probably closest to the true colour:

I thought I'd post a few bottle shots cause there's a lot of OPI fakes. I got mine with some vouchers from Bloom.com
Now, a lot of people said that Fly stains, so I was prepared. When using dark colours or colours I think might stain I always put on 2 coats of OPI Nail Envy and then 1 coat of a nornal base coat, I'm currently using up a bottle of Leighton Denny base but any thickish base coat will do. This is how they looked after removal - see, no stains!!
Hope you liked this post :-)
Cute combination! I have layered Save Me over Fly but I think I like you layering combo much better! It lets the color come through so much more.
ReplyDeleteCute combo! Your nails are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! I am prone to staining with this sort of colour, no matter how much base coat I use so I skipped this one, wish I hasn't now though!x
