Barry M "Rose Quartz" (Jewel Glitter Paints)

I went into Superdrug the other day to buy some polishes for a swap but then saw the new(ish) Barry M glitters from their Jewel Glitter Paints collection on the shelf and they looked so cute! I came back with a few for myself too of course!

Rose Quartz is a clear based polish packed with rosey pink hex and fine holographic glitter. Yes, that's right, I said rose glitter although for some reason it looks more brown'ish than anything else in these pictures. I'm not sure why that is, it just catches the light like that but the glitter is a really pale pink in the bottle. The holo in there really makes it shine bright in the sunlight and it looks so pretty and sparkly. It's a very delicate and feminine glitter.

I layered two coats of Rose Quartz over two coats of Nails Inc Elizabeth Street which is a very pale pearly pink polish. Rose Quartz reminds me a little of OPI Pink Yet Lavender from the Mariah Carey Collection but I actually like the fact that the holo micro glitter in this one is more evident. I just wish it photographed better!

    I just can't make my mind up about Rose Quartz.... It always looks beautiful on other people (especially on you) but I never seem to team it up with the right colour underneath and it just looks out of place :( xx

      It's a great layeing glitter and I think it looks lovely with any white, off white, pearly or pale pink cremes. You should try it, bet it would look geat:)

    I looove Rose Quartz! But you're right, it's hard to photograph...
    I used it in a gradient over a pale pink http://mymintnails.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/girly-glittery.html
