Nail Party! - Vivian & Lush Lacquer Clowning Around

Part two of the Nail Party!  Last Thursday, I received my most recent addition to my nail polish stash - Lash Lacquer Clowning Around!  So all I wanted to put on my nails was that, and didn't bother with doing anything complicated :) I started off with two coats of OPI My Vampire is Buff, and proceeded to apply one layer of Clowning Around.  Although one coat provided a satisfactory amount of glitter, Rebecca and I did find that we had to spread out and place the glitter ourselves.

I decided that wasn't enough, and since I've been looking for a reason to use my OPI Matte Top Coat, this was the perfect opportunity!  I have always loved the look of mattified glitter, it still seems cheerful but subdued in a classy way...
