Forever 21 Love & Beauty Chunky Glitter Nail Polish Set Review

 

Oh lord that is such a long title! LOL. Anyhow, this is a review of the chunky glitter nail polish set that I purchased from Forever 21.  I love that I get 7 awesome colors, which allowed me to experiment and get creative. I like how you get tiny glitters as well as large circle glitter pieces.  One downside is you do not get a lot of the large circle glitter pieces.  It really depends on how well you shake the bottle and wipe the brush before you apply the glitters on your nails.  Also, the glitters do not positioned well and evenly on your nails because you have to move the pieces around.




Another downside is you do not get full coverage on this first or few coats of glitters. I think that if you want full glitter without using a color nail polish, you really have to apply multiple coats.   Below you can see how the appearance of the glitter nail polishes on my nails with color nail polishes as the base.  I used them on tops of color nail polishes. I chose some different colors to show you guys some fun color combinations. 



I think that the glitter nail polishes look nice with color nail polishes. They add that glam factor to your nails.




 As I mentioned, they come off too light on the first coat.  Use more coats to get more fuller coverage.  However be warned, these glitter nail polishes, like any glitter nail polishes, they are a pain to take off! I had to use 3 to 4 cotton balls with nail polish remover to get these things off!  Even so, there were still large pieces still stuck on my fingers. I tried to scrape them off with my nails, but some were just stubborn, so they would not come off.  Sometimes, I would give up and I would leave them there for a few days until they washed away when I washed my hands.  I love glitter nail polishes, but I do not use them often because of the suffering that I have to endure to take them off.
