Nails Today: Fireworks


Hello beauts, today's post, as you can see, is another nail one. I hadn't done any for ages, and now there have been two in a week. Ooh, get me.
As with my previous nail post, I have gone for a beautiful glitter polish by a brand called Hits, and it contains gold, pink, blue and white flecks of sparkly goodness. All of the polishes in this little line, known as Glitter World, are named after famous cities, and this one is called Rome. Not too sure how the two are related, as it's not really a polish that screams 'Rome!' or 'The Pope!' or 'The Colosseum!' to me. But who am I to complain? Itlooks good, so I'm fine with it.
For the base colour, I went for a simple black polish from OPI, in the shade Black Onyx, and I think this really shows the glitter polish off to it's full advantage. It almost looks like fireworks against a dark night sky. It's a combo I'm really liking, and again I think it's perfect for the festive season, although I am now looking to hunt down some glitters containing more traditional Christmas colours - perhaps some wines, Emeralds and golds.

Do you know of any festive glitter polishes in these colours?

  5. I love glitter over black - this is stunning!
    For Christmassy, you could look out for Disco Ball by Revlon (gold), Rain Forest by Revlon (dark green with glitter shimmer), Gold by No.7 (self explanatory haha) and Pink Sapphire Glitter by Barry M, which is a mix of dark pink and holographic silver :) xxx

  6. This is so pretty! Honestly, as soon as "nail polish" and "glitter" come together, I go all girly and magpie-y. Gotta love the sparkles!
    I've never actually heard of this brand before. I absolutely love this one you've chosen though, so I reckon I'll be checking them out!
