Deborah Lippman Sarah Smile & CND Gold Sparkle

This is a polish I fell head over heels in love with. It wasn't love at first sight, but after I had her on my nails, Sarah Smile by Deborah Lippmann had me swooning with delight. Deb created this with Sarah Jessica Parker because she wanted something that wasn't too pink and wasn't too white. It goes on sheer, but y'all know me, I built it up to opacity in four-ish coats. I freaking adore how this looks with my skin tone! It did bubble a bit, but oh well. It wore like IRON too, no chips for a week!

After the third day, I decided to spice it up a little with two layers of CND effects Gold Sparkle (which is more of a gold flake). This is seriously a ga ga gorgeous combo, one of my very favorite manicures EVER!! Very simple but elegant and sexy!

What do you think my lovelies?

  25. So so so pretty. This is a shade that I've overlooked so many times but I love it on you. I want to go get it now and I like it with the CND over the top. Perfect wedding nails was my first thought, definitely what I would wear as it is so timeless. I'd need red toes though lol.
