Every February 14th, candy, flowers, and gifts are exchanged between loved ones, all in the name of St. Valentine. Therefore, with Valentines Day upon us the idea of a Valentines themed 'Nail of the Day' seemed like a perfect idea!
Here in Australia we are well into summer and with this I've been craving brighter colours on my nails. Instead of opting for my standard racy red I went with glitter polish! I am quite a lover of glitter polishes nowadays, only discovering this love in recent years.
On Valentines Day I will be wearing:
ESSIE 'Tie The Knot' & Chi Chi 'Glitteratti'
- ESSIE 'Tie The Knot' is described as a 'pale and pretty buff colour'
I featured swatches of Essie's 'Tie The Knot' in a previous post, see here: Essie Nail Polish Haul + Swatches
- Chi Chi 'Glitteratti' is a 'flat-hexagonal multi-coloured glitter polish with a subtle pink gloss'
Chi Chi 'Glitteratti' has quickly become a standout favourite in my glitter polish collection & my ESSIE collection holds a special place in my heart. Chi Chi nail polish retails for $12.95 AUD and Essie for 18.95 AUD.
Although both brands are more expensive than Rimmel or Essence for example, the quality and staying power speaks for itself. This manicure usually lasts a good 5-7 days before chipping (and that's without applying a top coat) Unbelievable?!
It's true!

Below is the picture that inspired this NOTD post. I posted this picture to my Instagram a few months back, and got some beautiful comments from you all. Thank you!

What are you favourite glitter polishes on the market? I would love some of your recommendations!
I hope your Valentines Day is spent with that special someone. Even if it's a date with ♥ Ryan Gosling ♥ in 'The Notebook' with Mr Cadbury Chocolate as chaperon.
Happy Valentines Day!
