Twinsie Tuesday: Hyped up/disappointed Polish

Sorry for my absence these past few days. I haven't painted my nails since Friday night. That doesn't seem that long for most but for me that seems like awhile. I've been under the weather for a few days and on top of that, welcoming new furry member(s) to the family.  But today is Tuesday, so that means another edition of Twinsie Tuesday. This week's theme or challenge is a hyped up polish you were disappointed by.
There aren't many polishes that I buy that I end up disappointed by and if I am disappointed, I find a way to make them work for me. Also, when I purchase hyped up polishes, I try to do my research before I buy it to avoid disappointment. So when it came to picking out a polish for this week's challenge, I wasn't sure what to go with. I decided on China Glaze Twinkle Lights from the 2011 Holiday Collection, Let It Snow. Don't get me wrong, this is a pretty polish but I was expecting to be as happy as I was when I finally got my hands on Party Hearty. I like the colors of this glitter but I wish they were different sizes.



Check out the other ladies of Twinsie Tuesday to see what hyped up polish they were disappointed by.

    I think the base of this is too close to your skin tone so the glitter doesn't pop.  Maybe if you layered it over a slightly darker nude shade?

    This is a pretty glitter.  Sorry it didn't excite you as much as you wanted it to.  Hope you feel better soon.

    I was rather disappointed by this one also, I ended up trading it.

    It is a pretty glitter! It's frustrating when they just don't live up to expectations.

    I can see why you would want some different sized glitter!

     Yes, different sizes of glitter would spice it up a little bit.

     It is a very pretty glitter so I can make it work.

     I like the coloring of it and the name fits it appropriately.

     I'm an odd one that doesn't like to get rid of stuff thinking I'll find some way of making things work, which is why I hold on to just about everything.

     I will try that, and maybe not go for an opaque coat.
