Color shift and glitter MATCH!

Good afternoon all. I have an under the weather tiny little man today who's been sleeping lots so I was able to finish a mani I've had in my mind for days. Here's what I used:

L to R: (base/strengthener) China Glaze Calcium Gel Fortifier, (1st coat) Mrs. P's Nail Potions "Pink/Blue Shifty", (2nd coat) butter LONDON "Disco Biscuit", (top coat) Essie "To Dry For"

As a refresher to see what Pink/Blue Shifty looks like alone you can check out the photo album on my Facebook page here.  Pink/Blue Shifty is a hot pink/magenta that shifts to a bright glowy blue.  Happens to be pretty much the same blue as the glitter in the hot pink jelly base of Disco Biscuit.  The pink bases to both polishes are slightly different as Pink/Blue Shifty is more purple and Disco Biscuit is a true hot pink but because of Disco Biscuit's sheer jelly base I didn't think it would completely mast the base color and color shift of Pink/Blue Shifty.

Here is the resulting mani in direct sunlight:




It was difficult to capture the glitter of Disco Biscuit on camera today.  For a better look at Disco Biscuit you can always google swatches or you can check out a previous blog post of mine here.  You can still see a slight color shift through Disco Biscuit (better in person, color shifts are always difficult to capture on camera) and Pink/Blue Shifty gives a more purple hue to the otherwise very hot pink Disco Biscuit.  And again, the bright blue glitter in Disco Biscuit matches the blue shift of Pink/Blue Shifty pretty much perfectly.  I'm very pleased with how this turned out.

For a closer look at butter LONDON polishes and to purchase, you can check out there website at http://www.butterlondon.ca/.  If you are located in Canada, like myself, you can also purchase their polishes from Nail Polish Canada.  Their website is http://www.nailpolishcanada.com/.

For more information and to purchase Mrs. P's Nail Potions Pink/Blue Shifty, you can check out my Etsy shop here.  Currently (as of the date of this blog post) Pink/Blue Shifty can be purchased as part of a mini trio from my Shifty Collection which includes Green/Gold Shifty and Blue/Green Shifty.  The trio is $13.50 CAD.
