"geez, can't this chick get new material??" you're probably thinking....
I am the kind of girl, where if something works well, I stick to it. I like a shirt... I buy it in every color. It's just me. So when I ended up falling madly in love with Glitter In The Air, I now probably wear it once a week or so. And stare...and stare...
It's 3 coats of GITA over the pink essie swatch that I cannot remember lol - it's a pale coral sheer pink...

My Restored Faith in Glitter In The Air
Just hanging out here on this icky rainy day, pressing the Inception button at an alarming rate.
Thought i'd show off my current mani. I swatched it once when I got it last month, and it ended up in my closet ignored. Something was just off about it, and I was starting to feel like I just don't like it. Yesterday I applied 2 coats of Seche Vite Ridge Filling Base Coat, and wanted to keep it plain at first. Have you ever tried their ridge filler? It's so pretty! Smooth, pearly, a hint of sparkle, works great on its own. But then I thought i'd give GITA another shot, and added 2 layers of it on top of the Seche. And I LOVE it!
What do you think? Do you own this color? How do you wear it?

My First FRANKEN! Glitter In MY Eyes
I'm so excited to say that I have finally tried out frankening, and I think I might be good at it! I started with a bottle of Rainbow by China Glaze, and dumped a small vile of teal sparkles, a small vile of pink sparkles, and a few dustings of green loose pigment, and voila. We have my first franken. That which I will name Glitter In MY Eyes (my take on Glitter in the air)
The pink from the sparkles kind of melted into the color which I ended up loving, and the green added a more shimmery base to it. All in all, I really love it!I love how the glitter kind of floats in the color instead of an all over glitter type of thing. And I love the iridescence of Rainbow.
What do you think? Do you franken? I can't wait to try more!!! Any suggestions?

Glitter In The Air: My Wednesday PINK Manicure
I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon and give the On Wednesdays We Wear Pink a shot (since I was already rocking a pink mani) I used 2 coats of Lippmann's Glitter In The Air (enter to win one here!) on top of 2 coats of NK Bubble Gum. I think that this is a sick swatch! I would recommend putting 2-3 layers of GITA because barely any glitter applies in the first swipe, and just a little in the second. 3 should get it done. But be prepared to have a lengthy dry-time.
I also tried this on a couple of light minty green colored swatches, and it looked great! It's a very versatile color. Definitely worth the purchase.
