China Glaze Graffiti Glitter

Hi you guys! Hope your week is off to a great start! :-) I've got another glitter from the China Glaze Glitz Bitz 'n Pieces Collection to share with you today. Graffiti Glitter is the green and black one from the collection, made up of a mix of small, medium, and large round and hexagon green and black pieces, as well as some black bar glitters, all in a sheer base.






I've got Graffiti Glitter over Keep Calm, Paint On in the swatches, and I think it's a fun combination. The six polishes in this collection are all quite similar, just with each polish's glitters comprised of a different color. The formula is good, but a little thicker, as is usual for a glitter like this to keep all the pieces evenly suspended in the polish. I did one coat, with a few strokes over each other to get good glitter density and coverage.

Since the glitter pieces come in some larger sizes and a variety of shapes, you may need to do some extra poking or prodding to get everything onto the nails nicely. Some of the larger glitter pieces definitely require a bit of fanegaling to get onto the brush and then the nails. And the bar glitters have a tendency to dangle off of the nails, but you can just nudge those stray pieces into place or file them off once dried.

You can find Graffiti Glitter at your local nail salons and at beauty stores such as Ulta and Sally Beauty for a retail price of $7 for 0.5 fl oz.
