| Darling Diva Polish Material Girl |
Darling Diva Polish Material Girl is just so *girly* - I love it! It's a hot pink jelly with a variety of pink and holographic glitters - some hex, some circular that all just comes together into a super-feminine polish.

As Material Girl is quite sheer, I chose to layer it over a polish almost identical to the base colour to avoid visible nail line. I think Material Girl would be fine on it's own on short nails, but I try to avoid vnl in my manis mainly to disguise the fact that my nail beds are all different lengths! I used Barbara Daly Think Pink as my undies for this mani, which is a Tesco brand. Sally Hansen Insta Dri Presto Pink is almost identical.
Application of Material Girl was really easy, the formula is good and no fishing for the glitters is required. I didn't do any placement of glitters, this is just how they came out the bottle - I prefer a random distribution on my nails! I used three coats of Material Girl here - I was going to stop at two but I really liked the jelly sandwich effect I was getting as the coats built up so I decided to add another coat. I used just one coat of Seche Vite quick drying top coat to smooth this manicure out.
In more subdued light, Material Girl takes on a brighter denser pink hue!

ReplyDeleteThanks! I think it might be my new favourite pink glitter!
DeleteThat is so pretty! I love the glitter and the color really caught my eye.
ReplyDeleteThank you! It is eye-catching, I love super-bright pinks like this :)
DeleteThis is gorgeous on you! And your nails are to die for! I wish I could grow mine that long with out breaking them.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm just lucky with my nails I think - no special treatment other than regular moisturiser / hand cream.
DeleteIt looks so pretty on you! I tried it on its own and it was not as great as your mani. next time I'm layering too.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, I thought it would be just bit too *jelly* to show up the glitters to their best on its own, and to cover VNL on longer nails. I've not tried it alone yet - did you post about it yet?
