Barielle Eli's Magic with Shannon's Attitude

Today I have two lovely Barielle polishes, Eli's Magic and Shannon's Attitude to show you. For some reason the combination of the two names to form a title seems to amuse me at the moment. I'm blaming it on lack of sleep...


Shannon's Attitude is a sheer grape colored jelly base with holographic bar glitter and micro holographic glitter. The glitter did bunch together a bit so I found it easier to apply it by placing a drop on the nail and then spreading it around. This provided better distribution of glitter over the regular method of application. The camera really doesn't do justice to this glitter as the the bars truly sparkle and shift color. Each little bar is a rainbow and contains the full spectrum of colors. The jelly base adds a slight purple tint to the polish it is layered over.



Can you see bits of the rainbow? It looks better and brighter in person...

Eli's Magic is a dusty pink creme. The polish has a great formula and I had no problems with application of it. This pink can easily be worn by itself or layered with a glitter as I did. It does provide full coverage in two coats, as seen in the photos below...

  1. Bar glitter is always so pretty in the bottle. I love the Nicki Minaj's OPI Save Me but I am never happy with it on? Yours look fine...I think less is more with the bar glitter.

  3. @Nails, Actually: I agree with you, it can be tricky. It either has to be just a touch of glitter all over or on the tips or going for full coverage. :)

    @Rose, prefect for a pedicure :)

    @Naty, thank you! :D
