Gimme Glitter: Barry M - Ruby

Hello there guys!! Little Gimme Glitter post today, I love these. Glitter is da best. I got this polish last summer and here is the Gimme Glitter post for that. I guess I never got round to swatching it by itself. Until now!!

I don't know why I decided to swatch it over orange (for pink glitter, I like putting it over purple), but I like it, it has a Halloween vibe and it's pretty fun. Ruby consists of pink hex glitter, small black hex glitter and small black micro bar glitter. Yeah that's not a bad description. I really like this glitter, it can potentially be very edgy and you know I love a bit of edginess.

 I remember when this lil' collection of glitter came out. Crazily enough I think this is the only one I got from that collection. Oh, tell a lie I have Amethyst as well, but I didn't buy that one and there were 6 in that collection. If that isn't self-control I don't know what is :P

Ruby is very glitter packed, there's a bit of moving around required to get a good spread of glitter, but there was definitely a lot of glitter there. I used 2 coats for what I felt was enough glitter, and that's a lot of glitter. I put this over Bourjois Tangerine Fatal (which I totally have been neglecting).

Thank you for reading and I hope you have a lovely day!! :)

  2. Uh-huh! I see those glitters saying "Oh-yeah, I've got the attitude!" ;) Btw, I think the same too! That pink and orange looks really fun and cheerful together! That said, love the combo! Although, the glitter polish by itself doesn't sound very ruby-like to me, your pairings totally made up for the lack of "redness" I'd expect from names like ruby! :)
