Whilst I was in Hungary, I picked up tons of make up from the ‘drugstores’ – I noticed the major brands there were the usual European ones we see over in the UK, but also a lot of German manufactured brands.  I have lots to show you from my holiday hauls – bit by bit my lovelies, because I seriously got so many random items!

One of the items I tossed into my shopping basket was a Nail Art Topper from Essence. I believe this brand is sold in some European countries mainly (but not the UK as fas as I know).  It’s pretty cheap and the nail selection is ridiculous – it’s absolutely massive and they already have big selections of crackles, magnetic nails, konad type stamps etc.

I wasn’t expecting much from this. I love nail glitters although they are a pain to take off, and I haven’t had great success. In fact I recently bought one from Orly and the glitters are depressingly thin – meh. So seeing as this topper was about £3 I didn’t expect anything…

It is SUCH a cute glitter top coat. Possibly the most fun one I have. It’s full of multi shaped glittery chunks – big ones,and with just one coat there’s ton of sparkly, 2 coats, then you’re winning:

It reminds me of:

CANDY!

SWEETIES!

PICK AND MIX!

THE CIRCUS!

LADY BIRDS!

PARTIES!

HEXAGONS!

Yes I totally love it. It is worn over Nars Schiap here.

Oh yes this brings out the child in me. I think it goes over hot pink particularly well too!

What do you think of this nail topper?

I own this polish as well and love the look of it! Unfortunately, essence glitter polishes are even harder to remove than regular glitters (or maybe I’m just hallucinating), which is why I hardly ever wear it :/

It’s so pretty!! It’s not available in Greece yet, although we do have Essence. Hopefully they’ll bring it here soon, because I want it! :) x

Wow I love the glitter over the pink. It really makes the glitter pop more! Definitely going to add this to my ever growing wish list!

It looks lovely. I have a proper soft spot for glitter polishes!
