Beauty Bite: Nanacoco Nail Polish in Snowflakes

Purchased by Me 

Have you ever thought to yourself, "I love all of the black-and-white glitter polishes out there, but I wish I could find one that's JUST white glitter?" If so, I've got just the thing for you:

Nanacoco Nail Polish in Snowflakes
(retail: between $0.99 and $1.99 depending on the retailer, 0.54 oz)

One coat of Snowflakes over Vapour Nail Color in Captive (no top coat):

And because I like to "mattify all the glitters," here's what this combo looks like with matte top coat:

PROS:

• Inexpensive (Nanacoco ranges from $0.99 - $1.99 depending on the retailer).
• Unique (I can't recall an all-white glitter polish like this from any other mainstream brand).
• No "fishing" required--you will have more than enough glitter on your brush each time you dip. You can brush this one on the nail as opposed to dabbing it on.
• The clear base is not thick or goopy.

CONS:

• Might be difficult to find in your area (Nanacoco can be found at indie beauty supplies and Amazon, or you can place a phone order via the Nanacoco website)
• Long dry-time. You will definitely need a quick-dry top coat for this one, otherwise it will take hours to dry.
• It's stinky (if you know what Kleancolor nail polishes smell like, it's identical to those).

THE LAST BITE: If you want an all-white matte glitter polish, this baby is for you. No problems at all with application, and in some instances there was actually too MUCH glitter on my brush when I pulled it out of the bottle. The long dry-time and smell might be a deterrent for some, but if you can get past those two issues, we've got a winner here...if you can find it!
