Maybelline Colorama - Tutti Fruitti

This sparkler is Tutti Fruitti (3). I generally prefer smaller sized chunks of glitter or a glitter bomb, but this rests somewhere in between with its sparse large glitter.

The silver/gold glitter sits in a sheer pink base with a lavender sheen, and I reach for this when I can't be bothered applying polish neatly. The glitter masks any messy application, and it's so sheer you can't really notice if you paint all over your fingers. I applied two coats for the picture above, and I doubt any number of coats would hide the VNL. I'm guessing Maybelline meant for this to be a topcoat. (WHY DON'T WE GET FLAKY COLORAMA TOPCOATS IN AUSTRALIA? *rants again*)

This is the last of the Coloramas that I've already got swatch photos of, but I do have a couple more Coloramas. I will post those when I feel like wearing the shades ;)

  2. Em- CBF polish! I like the sound of that ;)

    I've got a NYX flaky from Groove. Check out your local Groove, you might find one too!

    Inglot also have a few flakies, but I don't want to spend $20 for one polish. Stingy to the max!

  3. As much as I dislike sheers, sometimes there's nothing better than being able to reach for it in those cbf moments.

    Australia needs more flakies. I think we should start a petition :p

  4. Jaztee- I agree, we should start a petition! While we're at it, bring prices down of polishes too ;)
