Above the Curve Merry & Bright over Nyx Bloody Mary!

Hey everyone! Today I have a swatch and review of the lovely Above the Curve Merry & Bright to share!

I'm finally completely (or just about) over my flu, so today's the day that I'll get back into Pilates! I'm pretty scared to do so because Monday's are the crazy cardio and HIIT workouts which I struggle with quite a bit! Cardio is not my strong suit because I have almost no stamina and it's hard for me to find enough motivation for crazy cardio stuff!

School-wise I have a midterm this week and most weeks for the foreseeable future, so I'm not ecstatic about that! I also have this crazy class with tons of write-ups, assignments, quizzes and even a 12-15 page term paper, plus four midterms in total. Like, what? It's a second year genetics course and it's not so bad so far because the material is incredibly simple!

Onto the nails at hand (get it? :P)! I started with two coats of Nyx Bloody Mary, a bright red jelly polish. Two coats wasn't quite enough for opacity, but I knew I was going to cover it in a bunch of glitter! I then dabbed on two easy coats of Merry & Bright and finished with two coats of top coat!

Merry & Bright is packed with every finish of circle glitter (matte, metallic and holographic) in varying sizes and colours, plus some silver micro glitter! The glitters were super easy to spread out evenly on the nail!

    1. I know right! It almost looks like those awesome glitter mosaics they do at salons, but it's much quicker! :)
