China Glaze: Material Girl

So, it's Sunday.  I don't have an Adventures in Stamping Challenge for you.  This weeks theme was "inspired by music"  I am not gonna lie.  I didn't even try to come up with some thing.  I was so busy these last few days it just wasn't gonna happen.  But, I do have a pretty glitter mani to share.  This is Material Girl from the China Glaze Eye Candy Collection.  I only did 2 coats and it covered very well.  SUPER shiny and sparkly in the sun.  I was very disappointed when it started to chip/peel by the end of the day.  I had 2 more chips the next morning :(  Needless to say, this mani lasted less than 24 hours.  Not sure if there is some thing different I can do next time.  If you have any suggestions, please let me know.  Thanks!!  Here is how it looks when it was all pretty

Base Coat:  Seche Retain
Base Color:  China Glaze  Material Girl
Top Coat:  Sech Vite

    Love it Mandy! Thanks for sharing! It's too bad it started to chip and peel though, I hate it when that happens. :(

      I read recently that the SH Gem Crush line is a dupe for the Eye Candy Collection. Might be worth trying out their formula. See if it's any better. The Red I have didn't chip like this one. It could all be operator error LOL

    Ooh! I just got this in my nail mail today! Can't wait to use it, its gorgeous! I haven't compared yet, but is it very similar to OPI Excuse Moi?

      I don't think so. This one is a very pretty soft pink. I think Excuse Moi is more of a deeper pink/red. I don't own it so I can't say for sure.
