Rapid Red + Golden Enchantment

After two days of wearing Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Rapid Red on its own, I decided to add a little of one of my favorite layering polishes, China Glaze Golden Enchantment. It's a gold holographic microglitter in a clear base, and adds a nice sparkle to pretty much any manicure. Here's one coat over two coats of Rapid Red:

 indoors, artificial light
indoors, artificial light

I'm not sure why the polish looks so different in these pictures. The first one is more accurate as to how it looks in real life, but it's easier to see how much glitter there is in the second picture, so I included them both. Unfortunately, my left thumbnail, which is the one I did the patch on, is starting to chip. I think it's because my patch was slightly uneven...anyway, this means that Rapid Red's time is coming to an end for now. Thanks so much for all your good wishes in relation to my kidney stone - I'm still feeling better than I did a few days ago, but definitely not 100% yet, and I really appreciate all your comments. :) Until next time, thanks for reading!

  6. shortwidenails- Thank you, I don't mind at all! I don't own Fairy Dust, unfortunately...I found this on the clearance table at Sally's once or I wouldn't have it either.
