Hi there, my darlings! This rainy afternoon in NYC, let's brighten the mood...with some glitter! Today, let's take a look at Barielle's Glitter Mania collection--how can we be gloomy when there's gorgeous glitter everywhere, right?
Before we get started, let's take a minute to discuss the formula and application of these glitters. All five are clear glitter toppers and, unless specifically mentioned, are worn best as 2 thin coats over your favorite creme--since April's theme is "blue" for Barielle, I swatched all of these over a Barielle blue. I did find a couple of them a little bit thick, which I've mentioned below, but otherwise I had no other major complaints with the formula--glitter coverage was pretty spot on. With that said, let's take a look at swatches!
Confetti is a clear glitter topper filled with small matte hexes in pastel yellow, black, white, baby blue and magenta. This fun little glitter is shown as two thin coats over Barielle Designer's Shoe--so pretty!
Gemstones is a clear glitter topper filled with tiny multicolored microglitters accented with small hexes. I sponged on 3 thin coats over Barielle Heaven Sent for this blingy, jewel-encrusted look!
Mermaid's Fin is a clear glitter topper filled with iridescent shimmer, small microglitters and small pale blue hex accents. Just 2 thin coats of Mermaid's Fin over Barielle Midnight in Paris--isn't this just the perfect galaxy mani?!
Orange Flame is a clear glitter topper filled with small orange metallic hexes. I wanted this mani to look like a koi pond and I sandwiched layers of Orange Flame between layers of Barielle Under The Sea--one of my favorite looks!
Princess Pink is a clear glitter topper filled with small pink metallic hexes. This look was created by sponging Princess Pink over Barielle First Class Ticket.
And here it is matted, which I think I like best!
So there you have it, my darlings! The Glitter Mania collection for 2015 from Barielle!
