Deborah Lippmann's Glitter in the Air Polish

I've been wanting this polish since I first saw it appearing on blogs. I've been checking the House of Fraser Site religiously for at least a month now and last week it finally appeared and I grabbed it! Good job I did because two days later it had disappeared again!

I also bought Boom Boom Pow (the gold sparkly one on the left), but I'll do a seperate post on that at some point in the future!

Glitter in the air is a milky pale blue with baby pink and baby blue sparkles. Having seen it swatched many times already I knew very well that the milky blue base colour doesn't translate well to the nails and that actually this works better as a  layer over something.

But in the interests of showing you how this polish looks on its own here it is.

I'd be happy with this if my nails weren't so yellow. But they are and so it's never going to work for me on its own.

I toyed with layering over a pale blue, or a pale pink, and white, but in the end I settled for a grey and it's a nice choice in my opinion. Here it is over Essie's Playa Del Platinum.

It's definitely not for everyone but I love it and I'm so pleased that I have it in my collection because I simply don't have anything like it. Nor have I ever seen anything like it.

I must add, the wear on these is phenomenal, I'm on day four with not a chip in sight. Still going strong. Which of course you would hope if you've just spent £16 on a polish...

Anyway, I bought mine from http://www.houseoffraser.co.uk/ who are the only UK stockists. I have also just spotted they have Happy Birthday in stock which is the one I've wanted for the longest time! Must....resist.....
