Nail Lacquer UK Choose the One

About a week ago, I was browsing facebook and spotted a post from Nail Lacquer about her latest collection of polishes called Hate or Love. It made me smile, it is so true, with these big circle glitters, people do seem to love them or hate them. In fact I looked and thought, no - bit too big for me! and I commented that they looked lovely but probably not for me but she had a cunning plan, they were available in minis, for people like me who weren't quite sure!
Well, they arrived this morning and I decided to try Choose The One. I was in the mood for a dark polish and I thought this would go beautifully with OPI Ski Teal We Drop
Choose The One is a mix of magenta pink discs, teal hexes of all sizes and huge teal discs, set in a pale teal jelly base. I absolutely love the contrast between the pink and light teal glitters and the dark teal of the OPI.
I used one coat here over the OPI, and the glitter distribution was good except NO huge discs! However, firstly, it still looked beautiful, the pink and teal are stunning glitters and I could happily have worn it as it was, but secondly, fishing for the glitters was actually quite easy and I found once I'd got them, placing them was easier when the other glitter was already in place. I caught some on the brush, but I also went probing with a cocktail stick to catch a few more and I used my stick to position them "randomly". I am really happy with the finished look and I love the way the glitters catch the light and the large discs change  from blue to green.
