Rainbow Honey Summer of 199X - Glitter Topcoats

Hello again! Finally, to finish off the Rainbow Honey Summer of 199X collection, I will share with you the two glitter topcoats.

left to right: Magic Cake, I Miss You

I Miss You is a clear base with satin baby pink and aqua squares, butterflies, and hearts as well as iridescent shimmer. I layered it over Zoya Harley, a shimmery gray. So this is just an adorable polish, and I really love the glitter mix. Unfortunately, I had basically an impossible time with application -- the glitters stuck together, and the base got all tacky really quickly, and I could hardly spread it across the nail. Bummer! I do wonder if maybe this is due to the size and shape of the mini-bottle -- there just wasn't much room, it's kind of like the glitters got tangled together or something? It was very weird, and very disappointing.

On my nails:
1 coat Innisfree Eco Peel-off Base coat
2 coats Zoya Harley
1 coat Rainbow Honey I Miss You
1 coat KB Shimmer Clearly On Top

 Last of all, Magic Cake is a clear base with neon pink, yellow and blue glitters in various sizes and shapes as well as iridescent silvery microglitter. I layered it here over China Glaze Are You Jelly? Application was still a touch difficult here, but no where near as hard as I Miss You. I really love this glitter mix! So bright and fun.

And that is that for the Rainbow Honey Summer of 199X collection! Overall I really did love all the colors; every single one was beautiful. It is unfortunate that I struggled with application on several... I do hope that this was in part to the mini-bottle (at least for I Miss You) and that maybe it would be easier in the full-size. No matter what though, they were all gorgeous, the glitter jellies in particular applied beautifully, and I still would recommend checking them out!
