El Corazon Fireworks № fw-05

For this weekend I felt like wearing on my nails something purple and extra sparkly, so I picked up this gorgeous polish from my stash - El Corazon Fireworks № fw-05.

I have showed a few polishes from this gorgeous collection before at another post, but I never got to share swatches of them until now.
This gorgeous polish is a purple blue toned jelly with silver holo bar glitter, it was a bit sheer on it's own so I decided to layer it over a similar base color to achieve an opaque look (Barry M Plum).
I came to a conclusion that layering it over an opaque creme made the jelly effect less impressive, but I still prefer it this way rather than have the free edge of my nails show underneath. But if you don't mind this like I do, or have shorter nails than mine, you could just use two coats of this polish alone for a fantastic look.

I think this look is spectacular nonetheless, and it is just too gorgeous to translate to photos. The holographic glitter was so sparkly in the sun and I just couldn't stop staring at my nails!

For these photos I used two coats of El Corazon Fireworks № fw-05 over one coat of Barry M Plum, topped with one coat of Poshe.

Overall I really liked this polish, I think it is very unique and looks festive on the nails. With my next swatches I will try to show the jello look with three coats of polish without the creme base.

Hope you liked this post, I would love to hear your thoughts about this polish and if you had the chance to try colors from this collection.

Thanks for reading!
