The other day I visited my friend Kimi's place and wanted to use a simple nail polish to use before going out. She lent me the most beautiful gold glitter nail polish ever!!I swiped some onto my fingers and my toes, and it really looks amazing. I was in love with it, and surprised to find out it was actually a Victoria's Secret nail polish! It was the smoothest glitter polish I've ever used.
One of the things I dislike about glitter nail polishes is when the glitter is very thick, causing the glitter to stick out of your nail and making it prone to popping off your nails. Another thing I dislike about glitter nail polishes is when the glitter gets moved around with the brush, causing most of the glitter to end up at the tip of your nail instead of all around. This polish has no issues like that! The flakes are thing and delicate, and distribute perfectly on your nails!

| Here's a photo of my nails after one quick layer of the polish applied. By quick, I mean QUICK (because we had to leave in 5 minutes/were already running late), but it still looks amazing!! It's a little frustrating my phone camera can't really capture how beautiful the polish is ^^;; |
Anyway, long story short, I loved it so much I had to have it in my collection so I went to Victoria's Secret today. They didn't have any on the shelf and said they weren't sure when they were going to get more in stock.... but luckily one of the employees was able to find one in the back for me. THANKS SO SO MUCH to her!
The color I used was "
Runway Angel" and is the most gorgeous gold glitter polish. They also have silver version in stores called "Star Power" (which is oddly not available online). Since they were on sale for 2 for $15 (original price $10 each), I ended up also purchasing a mint green color called "
Lucky". I haven't used it yet, so I'm not sure how good it is, but I think it will look really pretty with the gold glitter ^^
Right now,
Victoria's Secret (US only) is also having a promotion where if you spend $10 in stores or online, you get a "
Shh... it's a Secret Reward"! It states, "
Each card is worth at least $10. Thousands are worth $100 or more. But we can't tell you what your card is worth until March 31, when you present it at checkout." They are giving out these cards until March 30, 2014, and they may be worth $10, $50, $100 or $500. I figure, even if it's just worth $10, I can use it on another nail polish ^^!
