3 coats of Julep America the Beautiful over 1 coat of OPI Samoan Sand
America the Beautiful is a beautiful mix of fine red, multi-sized blue, small silver, and silver star glitters in a clear base. The star glitters are very sparse so, sadly, I managed to get only one (and it is hiding on my ring finger). It applied easily, except for the star glitter; you need to fish them out and dab them onto your nails. I really like how fast it dried, though it was a little gritty and dull. However, a top coat will easily fix those problems! America the Beautiful is sheer enough to be a layering polish, as in the first picture, or can be built up to opacity. I personally prefer it as a layering polish because I don't want to waste such a gem!
America the Beautiful was included, free, in the Julep Maven July 2012 boxes only for U.S. residents, but it could be bought as an add-on. You can sign up for Julep Maven using my referral link.
How would you wear America the Beautiful?
See you guys on the other side of the day!

ReplyDeleteThey really are. The only other one I spotted was on the bottom of the bottle. -_- I'm sure there a little more hidden somewhere in there though...
