GMU Friday - Hello Kitty

Happy Glitter Me Up Friday! OK so it's Saturday now but it was worth waiting for some sun today to take these photos :)  It's really quite disappointing when I put on an amazing sparkly polish and there's no sun for photos.  I can use flash but I much prefer daylight photos.

This is Hello Kitty Violet Salome.  It's the only Hello Kitty product I have but I'm so impressed I'm going to have a look for some more.  I just remembered I have a stamping plate somewhere with a Hello Kitty image.  I'll have to give it a try but I'm pretty bad at stamping.

Violet Salome is a really fine micro purple glitter.  It looks like a glass flecked foil on my nails but it is really a glitter, I checked with a magnifying glass :) It has a lovely duochrome effect in the bottle that unfortunately doesn't show on my nails.  This glitter actually reminds me a lot of the TKB Star Bites powders.
It's such a gorgeous purple.  Depending on the light it can look burple or almost fuchsia.

This is 3 coats with base and top coat.  It dries smooth and shiny but chipped on one nail (right hand) within a few hours.

Hello Kitty Violet Salome is a tiny 8ml bottle.  I picked this up from Priceline on sale.  Look at those colours!

Now go check out the rest of the Glitter Me Up Friday players :)

    1. This was in my local Priceline. They have a small Hello Kitty display but it was hidden down at ground level behind a dump bin, on sale. Let me know if you want me to hunt one down for you :)

  2. Wow, look at that bottle shot. How amazing if it looked like that on the nail!!! I still like it though, it's definitely my kind of polish! Glass fleck + purple is a winner for me. I can't say I've seen this brand at Priceline but I might keep an eye out :)

  3. Wow! Wish it kept the duochrome on the nails! Soooo pretty! My sister has one of these HK polishes and I did a manicure on her, and it lasted like a week without chipping!
