Welcome back to Manicure Monday! You find me today with the shortest nails I’ve had all year. My last break was already devastating (curse you, fitted sheets), and now something else has happened to completely finish them off. This is China Glaze’s Black Diamond and Digital Nails‘s Leviathan.
I’ve had these Digital Nails starship glitters forever, and I’m just getting around to being able to appreciate them. They’re beautiful! The shift is just too impressive not to rave about. I realize I am so late to this party, but shifters, man, they’re amazing.
I feel a little bad for Black Diamond, because it’s a lovely polish on its own. It’s got this subtle gunmetal shimmer to it that the glitter completely obscured. I did plan a glitter gradient to get the best of both words, but there just wasn’t room for it on these tiny nails. Glitter wins every time.
China Glaze is sold in stores; I got this particular bottle at Sally Beauty Supply. Leviathan and other Digital Nails polishes are available on etsy, though they’re currently closed.
That is quite a shift! Great swatches!
that shiiift. I hope DN comes back.
I love a dark, shifty sparkler. Great swatches!
Ugh, I hear ya on the breaks and shorties, but this colour looks great on your shorter nails!
WOAH – that shift – hello!! Gorgeous!
That is a beautiful shift!
what a beautiful shade, great for the holiday season!
Wow, your second picture blew me away. That’s really a great way to show the shift in this.
That shift!
OW on the break! I had one the other day that wasn’t as devastating but I ended up booking a manicure for tomorrow so I can have someone even me all out instead of just going super short again.
I actually just grabbed Black Diamond yesterday! I’m moving all my polish into totes for the meantime to combat the dust and cat hair as I downsize.
Digital Nails might come back one day. She’s having issues with her base supplier but I hope she gets it all figured out because I do love her stuff.
I was wondering what the reason was. Hope she’s coming back.
Oh wow, this is stunning – especially the angled shot!
I really like my shifters to be dark. I think it shows off the shift better. This china glaze looks really pretty
The shifts in this are gorgeous! So so pretty!
I actually love your shorties!!! But yes, fitted sheets can be killer!!
