Sharing a swatch of Barielle Falling Star. This is a deep blue polish with gold/copper glitter. I had mixed feelings about this polish. I liked the color combination but was not impressed with the formula. It did not go on smoothly. This swatch is two coats with top coat.

Beauty Tips for Women: Purple Lightening
I purchased “lightening” shaped nail decals from Amazon. When I received them I wasn’t very impressed with the shape. 
I decided on a purple color scheme. I used Wet n Wild – Who Is Ultra Violet? and Essie – Nothing Else Metals.
Beauty Tips for Women: Combination Review of Sinful Shine – I’m Blushing and Essence – Let Stars Rain Down On Me! top coat
I purchased Essence Nail Art top coat in Let Stars Rain Down On Me! It claims to be a holo-glitter polish. The bottle needs to be shaken because all the glitter particles settle at the bottom. It looks very pretty, so I was hopeful that it would deliver.
I decided I wanted to pair this with Sinful Shine – I’m Blushing. This polish was horrible. I have several Sinful Shine polishes and have never experienced such horrible formula issues. It streaked and had bits of black particles in it. I did two coats and it still did not look good and I did not want to invest in more coats to fix the problem. I hoped that adding the holo-glitter top coat would help. So here is where I finish my review of Let Stars Rain Down on Me! Stars do not rain down. I applied 4 coats. With a sponge and without and this is all I got. I was not impressed at all with this top coat.
To help salvage this manicure I decided to do some stamping. 
Not crazy at all about this manicure.
I give Sinful Shine I’m Blushing, one brain. I hope that this simply was a bad batch and that others do not experience the same formula issues I did. 
I give Essence – Let Stars Rain Down On Me! top coat, zero brains. Don’t waste your money on this at all. It simply does not deliver on its name or claims.
