No, not *that* kind. Sheesh...get your mind out of the gutter!
It's Wednesday night and I'm prepping this post for Thursday morning. I have a very short fuse tonight thanks to a sore toe (the same toe I broke *way* back in October) and it's been a really exhausting week at work, so I'm going to keep this one pretty short.
Earlier in the Summer, I finally got my first jelly finish polish and I loved it way more than I thought I would. And a little while after I found that one, I discovered the jelly sammich. I had been eyeing this polish for a while because I loved the color but as soon as I found out it was a jelly, I went out the next day and picked it up.
This bright, bold blue is Revlon Royal. It's a royal blue (hence the name) jelly that is great alone but I was in a glitter sammich kind of mood and threw in some silver holo bar glitter.
Yeah, there's some VNL, but it's a jelly...and that's part of what I love about a jelly. It's full coverage but it's still a little transparent. The bar glitter is Rush UFO. I don't even know if you can get it anymore...I've had it since before I moved to New Mexico (so that means at least 13 years).
I love the concept of this, but the end result didn't live up to my expectations. You can't see any of the holo-y goodness of UFO so it just looks like white bars of stuff stuck in my polish. LOL As a side note, I already don't care much for bar glitter, so maybe this mani was doomed from the start.
Have you done a jelly sammich? Which polishes did you use?
OK. I'm done. It's been a long day. I hope Thursday is better because Tuesday and Wednesday left a lot to be desired.

Maybe the halo-y affect pooped out after so many years in the bottle. It's still a pretty mani!

Your jelly sammich is beautiful. :)
I didn't even think about doing a jelly sammich with Royal. I am so doing this. Royal is one of my favourite blue polishes and I have so. much. .glitter... :D
That is waaay blue! What a fun for a few days mani.
I love the jelly sammich! It's like looking at glitter underwater :)
