Part 1 of 3 Glitter by Revlon - Starry Pink with OPI Steady As She Rose *Breast Cancer Awareness Month*

Here is my 2nd post of the 3 Revlon glitters. Number 2 I decided to do next in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I actually wanted to get this post up in time for tomorrow, as tomorrow the 6th is my late grandmother's birthday, and we lost her to breast cancer in 2001. 

So in honor of anyone affected by breast cancer and my Memmy... I am participating in Pink Wednesday! Here is Starry Pink.

I look absolutely awful with pale pinks on my nails but I am slowly becoming a lover of them. I really liked this one except the fact that I would have to layer it over a white or an exact match of pink/white base... I hate having to layer over my white when I use those for my beloved Jelly polish base coat! So like with my perfect match of Revlon Blue Mosaic and Sinful Colors Gorgeous, I was DETERMINED to find a matching pink base for Starry Pink!

Aaaaaaaand....... I found it! The perfect match is OPI Steady As She Rose! It is practically identical to the pink base even though Steady As She Rose is a cream and pretty opaque it matches as if Starry Pink was applied on it's own with 3-4 coats. I did this on every other nail to show that it is a great match! PERFECT like my Violet baby <3!!!

OPI Steady As She Rose was not only a perfect color match for the Revlon Starry Pink, but it can be a bit streaky when applied and for solid coverage you would need at least 2 coats. For the base of Starry Pink I just used one coat since bald spots and streaking did not matter with the layering. I did end up using 2 coats of Starry Pink over the single Steady As She Rose coat. And like I said for the lone Starry Night nails I used 3 coats and some nails 4. Easy application and no sparse glitter problems for the Starry Night. With me no matter what top coat I use (I used Nubar Diamont Seal & Shine Top Coat) I always get chipping with Revlon polish. Regardless of that I love the colors, glitters, and don't usually keep a mani on for too long so the chipping is no serious deal with me.
