Guest Blogger: Shelby's Swatches with OPI Marooned on the Magnificent Mile + OPI Bring on the Bling


Today is my last, but certainly not least, guest blogger! 
I present to you the amazing Shelby over at Shelby's Swatches

Hello ladies! I'm Shelby; Dulcie contacted me the other day to do a guest post on her blog and I was very excited about the opportunity! I have my own blog over at Shelby's Swatches if you're interested in seeing my other posts!

I was trying to decide what I should do for this post and I settled on a glitter gradient. I've really been into glitter gradients lately; I've done 2-3 in the past week!

What I used:
1 coat OPI Nail Envy
2 coats OPI Marooned on the Magnificent Mile
1 coat OPI Bring on the Bling w/makeup sponge wedge
2 coats Diamond Dry

OPI Bring On The Bling

Marooned on the Magnificent Mile is a gorgeous ruby creme with a touch of brown to it. I had no difficulties with this polish; it was opaque in 2 perfect coats! There wasn't a lot of cleanup considering it's a red! I then added Bring on the Bling with a makeup sponge, creating a gradient effect by applying more glitter to the tips and tapering down towards the base. Bring on the Bling has gold, silver, orange, red and green fine glitter. This color applies wonderfully and I can't help but stare at it!

I always enjoy glitter gradients, but I especially like how this one turned out! I like the combo of the gold/silver and the red! What do you guys think?

Thank you so much, Dulcie, for giving me the opportunity to guest post on your blog! 

I hope you guys enjoyed the little touch of my blog here!
