Am eagerly waiting Essie's Leading Lady to arrive in store but any other recommendations - ideally want burgundy and super glittery

Ooh I love a glittery nail varnish - my favourite are the revlon glitters by far. They do a beautiful pale pink glitter and so I put that over the top of a nice burgundy (I like maxfactor ruby fruits for instance) and always get complimented on it! Smile

Superdrug have a 3 for 2 on cosmetics, and all manner of glittery stuff on offer. Barry M, MUA and Revlon had some lovely nail varnishes.

This is amazing Removing it is another matter though!

Should have said, just paint your normal colour on, then apply this over the top. Turns any nail varnish into glitter heaven!

I have a models own glitter nail varnish I got from boots that I adore. The glitters quite big chunks in different colours and looks fab. Grin

I did my nails tonight with ordinary polish then put Barry M loose glitter dust all over, I used the bright blue. I put a clear polish on top or it catches on clothes .

It looks epic

NYC cheapy stuff do a really nice glitter one you put on top of your base colour.

Models Own, I think chunkier glitters show up more than finer glitters.

If you want a burgundy one, Barry M pink sapphire is a mix of burgundy and silver hexagons and thin strips of silver plus a fine pink glitter - it looks amazing over burgundy nail polishes.

Barry M actually have a great selection and are a total bargain Smile

Am trying to get the Rose Quartz one mentioned above but everywhere I go, it has sold out

Rose quartz and pink sapphire look lovely.

Barry M Pink Sapphire is the one I bought too. Haven't tried it yet, but it looks really nice and chunky.

Has anyone tried just "glittering" the tips of the nail? I quite fancy having a go.

The Serena Williams one on QVC. It's fantastic, enormous sequins - looks like tiny mirrors.

When i glitter my tips, i leave the main coat to dry and put a little clear on the tips just roughly and put glitter on the nail, gently though.

It looks lovely with a deep red and a gold tips.

Want a messy look i get a stick and drag the clear down my nail not to hard and it looks like that glitter is falling Grin

OPI Crown Me Already is fab - silver not burgundy though - but would look great on an accent nail. It's one of my favourites.

Models Own, Hed Kandi in Ibiza Mix (multi-coloured glitter). They stock it in Boots.

Big, fat flecks of glitter. Much better than tiddly little flecks.
