The Polish Bar's Spring 2013 Collection

I absolutely must have all of The Polish Bar's Spring 2013 Collection!  They are just stunning colors.
When the collection launched I was trying really hard to be good, so I only purchased one color for now.  I chose Shiny Pebbles because the glitter combo is unlike anything else in my collection!

I think I applied the glitter a little bit heavy, but it somehow still does wonders for me.  It's probably the color combo that I am so enthralled with!  Here are two thin coats of Shiny Pebbles topped with a layer of Flakie Friend because some of the glitters were piling up and poking out a bit.  The formula is very easy to work with, it became opaque in these two coats and a lot of the glitter sits on top of the base all by itself so that it's nice and shiny without the base dulling it out.  I am in love!  I may use it as one coat over a white base next time to see how that works out.  (Please excuse my dry cuticles, I think the baby is sucking the life out of me LOL.)

The glitters in the white base of Shiny Pebbles include the obvious metallic orange hexes, the turquoise-aqua metallic squares, and a faint scattering of black hexes, as well as the less obvious peachy shade of hexes, all hanging out with micro-glitter to match!  I just can't get enough!  Weird how in some pics it kinda looks matte... I did not put any matte on it but now I think it might be an interesting change!
