Mani Monday! | Essie's Bikini so Teeny + Serial shopper




 Hello all!

As promised, here is the nail polish duo that I was wearing in my last post! I like it because it is different and beachy!

To start off, I always recommend applying a base coat because it helps to adhere the color to your nail, and create- as you'd guess- a nice base! It also allows your mani to last longer!

I like Essie's First Base base coat, which I used for this look, but you can use whatever you please!

Colors- As I mentioned above, I used Serial Shopper and Bikini so teeny, both of which I purchased from Ulta. On Ulta's website (and a little bit in person) Bikini so teeny appears to have a massive amount of glitter in it. When you apply the color to your nail, it seems to just vanish. Even though it isn't "visible" as glitter on the nail, it does act as light reflectors and maybe this is why it is so shiny? I don't know, I'm just hypothesizing, so don't quote me on that ;)
