Danglefoot Nail Polish 'Merlin'

Hello! Today I have Danglefoot Nail Polish topper 'Merlin' to show you. When my bottle arrived in the post, I was wearing Fair Maiden Polish 'Starry Night', a deep navy holographic with golden flakes (swatched here). I immediately thought that they'd be perfect together, as a sort of night sky look. Read on to see how it went!

'Merlin' is a holographic topper with added silver holographic hexes and stars. It is very densely packed, so you get a very generous amount out on each dip of the brush. You might actually be able to get this opaque on it's own. The glitter spreads out evenly, and I didn't have any trouble getting out the stars. Below is one coat with topcoat over 'Starry Night'.

What do you think? I didn't realise just quite how packed this was with glitter, and painted on a fairly thick coat! I've gone for quite the chunky blingy look. I do love it, but think next time I'll go for a thinner, more gentle application. I also think it would work really well sponged on as part of a galaxy nail design.

Danglefoot Nail Polish's etsy store (here) is currently closed until around September, but you can keep up with updates on Instagram here.

Hope to see you in the next post!

  2. I love that Fair Maiden, and it is so fitting with this polish! It definitely looks like it would be opaque with only a couple coats, and I like the idea of sponging it over galaxy nails! They aren't as popular as they used to be, but I still love the way they look. :)

  5. I love that glitter! I like the way dense glitters like this one change the color of the base.
