I could not believe my luck yesterday when I scoped out a Revlon display in Walmart and spotted Whimsical!! For those of you who don't know, it's a well-known dupe for Deborah Lippman's Glitter in the Air, which retails for around $20 compared to Revlon's average of around $5.

This baby was as good as mine when I saw it and I'm so glad I did - it's like the nail polish equivalent of cotton candy. A really sheer blue-grey base with pink and blue glitter, both mini and hex. It's definitely a layering polish but the possibilities are endless with it I think... here I layered it over Nicole by OPI "Baby" Blue but I think it would look great over a light grey, white or a sheer pink... I intend to test all of these colour combos on a nail wheel ASAP!

This is one coat of "Baby" Blue followed by about three coats of Whimsical - I really wanted to get a lot of glitter on there, but two coats would probably be fine too!
