OK, so the other day I showed you my new favourite thing – Inglot 956 polish. Now I want to show you what I did to it.
Fame was one of my IMATS purchases. I spotted this bottle sparkling away at me under the spotlights and immediately knew it was coming home with me. In the bottle, it looks phenomenal – dense purple glitter leaning towards the magenta side. So, imagine the anti climax when I opened it up to do a little swatch on the back of a receipt (something I do all too often) to see it was actually super sparse and suspended in a clear jelly. Cue a great big sulk.
Thankfully, I was with Vex In The City, who promptly calmed me down and pointed out that it would work a treat over a co-ordinating purple shade. And as per usual, she was correct. Phew.
So, here we have one of the best manicures I have ever done. Even if I do say so myself. Gorgeous violet Inglot base, toppe off with purple glitter that is possibly duochromatic as well. In some lights it appears pink and in others it is definitely purple. Utterly mesmerising and I am totally in love. It is like the glittery version of a Dairy Milk wrapper. I just wish the photos did it justice.
How glad am I that I didn’t just write this off as a bad job? It’s not at all gritty
by the way, as the glitter is more like little slips of sparkle rather than dirty great big lumps. Still not the easiest to remove but seeing as I only actually took this off when it was falling off, I didn’t really mind.
Just goes to show that no matter how old, respectable and responsible I get, there’s always a part of me that can’t resist a good purple glitter. I bet you’re the same deep down…

One gorgeous manicure! Love this purple. I have several NYX polishes that are sheer. They’re so pretty but sheer. Wish they weren’t. Looks gorgeous on you.
