Essie Leading Lady

So it's January, the season of glitter and sparkle might technically be over... but if there's ever a time that some glitter and sparkle is needed - it's now. Dark mornings, dreary weather - Christmas is gone and Spring and Summer are still to far away... not to be a misery guts at all! On the positive side, it's now that all the new Spring/Summer collections start hitting counters, so that's something to look forward to!

If you're missing that warm sparkle of the festive season then this little beauty will give you a little reminder just at your finger tips...Leading Lady is a deep red glitter that's just gorgeous, from the Essie Winter Collection 2013.

On the nails it is slightly brighter red (this is two coats) than in the bottle - but if you wanted a darker finish you could layer over a deeper red polish. What I love about this is that it's a glittery twist on a classic nail colour - just adding that extra bit of pretty sparkle.

In my opinion glitter is for life - not just for Christmas!

Bought by me.

  1. That looks beautiful. I never follow season trends and always just wear whatever colour i fancy. It could be a heatwave and i'd maybe go for a dark nail or a festive red glitter like above. I've been looking for a decent red glitter that doesn't dry to a gritty dull glitter. I hope this one stays glossy once dry?

  11. I'm in total agreement; glitter IS for life! This red-wine colour looks ideal for all seasons as well though! Also, the absolute opposite can look amazing too: I have just bought the 'essie' matte nail topcoat and it's incredible! :) x

  12. Love the deep dark red but I'm not a fan of the glitter and since christmas is over I'm kinda over the glitter phase, although it's still quite pretty
