OPI's "It's All Greek To Me"

Another of my nail bar favourites, featuring "It's All Greek To Me" layered with "I Lily Love You", both by OPI.


Originally I asked for just the glitter, but the base is very very sheer so it might not have looked so great on it's own. Michael (my nail technician) suggested the bright pink as a base and I'm glad I went with it!

"I Lily Love You" is a lovely glitter with a mixture of small glitter dots and flakies, so the effect is different on every nail. The photo below isn't great because it was taken on my BlackBerry, so in future I'll try to photograph them with my SLR. 

I loved this glitter so much I purchased some from a shop on Amazon.co.uk for about £9. 

"It's All Greek To Me" is similar to other colours I have so I didn't see the need to buy that too, but I guess "I Lily Love You" would look great on any colour because the flecks are almost rainbow coloured. 

I tried this over a blackened purple polish but forgot to take a photo. It looked like an easy way of creating Galaxy nails, without the sponging and artwork.
