"Feel Good" Polish

So..do y'all ever wear a polish or make a great polish combo, and whenever you look at the color on your nails it just makes you feel good?  Well that's what this post is about today!  I didn't realize that the polish combo I was planning to put on was going to distract me so much during the day...but it has managed to!  I started with a base of two coats of China Glaze's Surfin' for Boys which I just purchased at Ulta.  It applied like a dream!  I love the formulas on all of the 2012 Summer Neons by China Glaze.  Anyways...after I applied SFB, I wandered over to my polish racks to search for something I could enhance the manicure with.  I didn't really feel like doing any sort of design, so I resorted back to the good ole' 'glitter on top' mani.  I picked up my most recent polish purchase from F21-a multi colored CHUNKY glitter.  I say CHUNKY because these babies are huge!  That's why I love them.  So much of the color just pops on your nails.  As with most glitter polishes I had to put in a little extra work to get the chunks of glitter to lay where I wanted them to..but it all worked out. I topped it off with my top coat and some polish drops and they were good to go.  Pictures?

What do y'all think?  Am I crazy or have y'all also experienced those "feel good" manicures?  Do you own any glitters similar to the above Forever 21 one?  What's your favorite Forever 21 polish?  Let me know what y'all think!

  2. I love it. Looks like polka dots! I have a glitter polish from American Apparel that looks almost the exact same!
    Beau-ti-ful ;)

  3. I know what you mean about feel good manicures! I have certain polishes that I go to a lot when I just want something that I know will look good. Like OPI Bubble Bath. You can't go wrong with that. And then just recently I paired Pixi Real Rose with Essie A Cut Above. I kept that on forever just because it looked so good & I felt like my nails looked good with that pink & glitter.
    I really, really LOVE this manicure! The glitter is super cute! I haven't tried any F21 polish. I never go in Forever 21, so I just forget about it. I need to change that!
