NOTD: Metallic Miami

3 coats of Mavala nail polish in 'Miami' and 2 coats of OPI nail lacquer in 'Metallic 4 Life'

Miami is a pretty mid-tone pink. In the bottle, there is a lovely blue pearlescent shimmer running through it, but on the nails it translates by making the pink look less like a pastel cream and more of a glowy pearlescent pink. I have had this shade for ages, but have never used it because I didn't think it would suit my skin tone. I'm still a little unsure at the moment. The formula of Mavala nail polishes are dreamy to work with and dry quickly. This one took 3 coats for Miami to become opaque on most nails, however on my thumbs, I think another coat would have beneficial. I've only had this nail combination on for 1 day, however if Samoa is anything to go by, I'm sure it will last well on the nails.

I really like the glitter accent nail trend. I usually opt for glitterizing my ring finger, but this time I opted for my middle finger. I won Metallic 4 Life in Leanne's giveaway and I love it! It has hexagonal and circular silver glitters in a black polish. The first coat was pretty sheer, but with the second coat, it was opaque and loaded with glitter.

Do you like to have glitter accent nails?
