Hooray!! I’ve found another festive, holiday polish to wear this Christmas. I stumbled upon this polish as I wandered down the oh-so-dangerous nail polish aisle at Target, and was eager to put another glitter polish to the test. This one wears MUCH better. Thank goodness! Sally Hansen’s Gem Crush line has a range of glittery, shimmery colors. I opted for a gold toned shade to bring a little sparkle to my holiday outfits without being too overwhelming. Big Money is composed of a super fine gold glitter mixed with a chunkier rose gold glitter. This unique combination reads gold, rose gold or even silvery depending on the light.
As I said earlier, I’m no longer afraid of glitter polishes. I just have to find the right one! Big Money has a smooth formula that doesn’t snag or catch on everything in close proximity. After applying, but before I topped it with Seche Vite, I did just run my finger along the edges of my nails to make sure there weren’t larger glitter particles hanging off. This seemed to work just fine and I have yet to feel the need to file down any scratchy ends. I have worn it 2 ways and both look pretty similar. I put one coat over a sheer light pink, as well as using 2 coats of Big Money on its own. The former is shown in the pictures above. I’ve got the 2 coats on just one nail that needed a touch up half way through the week because I totally forgot I’d used the pink underneath before! You probably wouldn’t be able to pick it out because it’s so similar, but it does read alittle more gold after a second coat.
