On Nnenna's Nails 30- Jelly Belly

Pink- Zoya Paloma // Glitter- Wet N Wild Party of Five Glitters

I was really excited to try the jelly nail polishes when they finally arrived in my mailbox! They are very sheer so the opacity depends on how many layers that you want to do. The best part about them is that you can sandwich other nail polish colors in-between two jelly layers and it looks like a completely different polish. For this manicure, I did two coats of the pink, then two coats of the glitter (I couldn’t get enough glitter on the first coat), then one more coat of the pink. Next time I might try also try a finer glitter for the in-between layer.

    Zoya has some very unique nail polishes, did you see the new textured Pixie Dust polishes? I’m not sure what I think. I like the sound of yours though! The results are super cute!

      Thanks Jenmarie! I’ve seen pictures of the Pixie Dust polishes and they look cool, but I’m not sure how I feel about them either- I’d have to see it in person!
