Glitter Galore

Okay, so at this point I have quite a bit of glitter! Nice.

This what I've purchased after four months:
 
 Right now I just keep it all in a big clear container--you know, the ones with the opaque lids.  But if I order any more, I'm going to have to come up with a better way to store it!

The Battle of the Black and Whites

I mentioned before that I've supported indie polish developers. I have bought a few black and white topcoats, and I've also tried to make my own with black and white glitter that I've purchase online. I cheated with my own: I added black and white glitter to a bottle of Wet n Wild #469, and it looks and applies quite nicely. Here it is compared to other brands I've bought:

Mine is on the far right. But also pictured are: Lac Attack Ocelotta Spots, Cover Band Sticks and Stones, and my favorite of the three, one called Black Tie Affair. Two were purchased from Etsy; Sticks and Stones was bought from someone on eBay.

You can never have too much black and white polish!
