NYE is finally here! I decided to go for a purple glitter look on my nails this year to celebrate the end of 2012. I applied two coats of Ciate's Cabaret (a gorgeous dark purple creme, formula is a little thin though as you might be able to tell from the below pic. If I was wearing this on its own, I'd definitely slap on an extra coat!) as the base and then layered it with a top coat of Ciate's Magic Carpet. At first I was really disappointed with Magic Carpet because it looked so densely packed full of glitter in the bottle and then it just applied as a thin sparse glitter suspended in clear varnish. However, with Cabaret as a base I think it works well!
I hope everyone has a fantastic NYE!
See you all in 2013!
