Cirque XX

I have a beautiful polish to share with you today! I have never tried Cirque before, but have been wanting to for a really long time! When I saw that Ipsy had Cirque on the list of samples that were to be an option in the monthly subscription, I really hoped to get it! Unfortunately, I didn't get it, but I found someone willing to trade a product for it! More information about Ipsy is at the end of the post. The Cirque came in a mini bottle, and not a full size, but it didn't disappoint. I layered one coat over Sinful Colors Black on Black and added a top coat.

So, beautiful! I love this glitter! It has so much complexity to it! There are micro-glitters, shreds, hex glitters, and all in various sizes and color shifts. Oh so pretty! It is like an automatic galaxy on your nail! The application was really easy, I did dab a bit on spots that weren't as well covered though.

Side note: what do you all think of the last photo? When I put this on, it reminded me of this necklace I made and wanted to pose with it. When I was taking pictures, it just felt awkward and I'm not sure I like it, but I wanted to crowd source it a bit and see. Do you like pictures of nails with jewelry? I, personally love them, but I have never tried it on my own.

  6. Gorgeous swatch! I just swatched this a couple days ago for the first time and fell in love with it, too. So sparkly! As far as the necklace....I know a LOT of people like those kind of photos. I personally find them sort of distracting- I'd rather see just a hand pose or the bottle, but I think I'm the minority!

  7. I really like how the glitters almost look pastel instead of bright and in your face. To be completely honest I didnt give the necklace in the photo much thought. I was just looking at your nails. I actually had to go back and look to see the necklace.

  8. Pretty topper! I like the combo of glitter shapes in it. I'm pretty ambivalent about using the necklace in the pic - it looks nice, but I have no preference one way or the other :)
