Yes you got it, that's what I meant. I wipe of the brush inside the bottle. Then a bit of polish sticks to the top inside of the bottle and it slowly slides down, but while sliding down it also seems to get thicker. It does help to close the bottle and hold it upside down to get it mixed in with the rest quicker, but I hoped there would be an easier way. Thanks for your help.

Another tip would be to use a wooden cuticle stick to stir up the glitter inside the bottle. You may also want to wait a bit longer for the polish to dry between applying coats. I notice that when I apply my 2nd coat of glitter polish too soon, I end up moving the glitter towards the tips of my nails and it starts to clump.

I tend to wear colors whenever, so it doesn't bother me that the collection isn't typical fall. I'm all over those bright shades. What I'm wondering now is if some of the colors will have the same rubber finish texture as Cake-Hole.

I may be interested in this. I'm going through the normal 8oz bottles too quickly.

My Nordstrom Dior set has shipped. I saw that it already changed to being backordered yesterday. That was fast. I'm glad I ordered mine as early as I did. My tracking info hasn't updated, but I'm guessing that it will be delivered early next week.

Naughty I have lady of the lake and sleeping palace, and they are nothing alike. Lol is def. a reddish purple holo. I love sleeping palace, I think you have this one, right? I found lady o the lake pretty, but a little underwhelming compared to the website pics.

I don't think they are polishes. According to Nordstroms:

Nails dazzle with extreme radiance in a limited-edition, numbered set. Each coffret features two sparkling powders and a special adhesive base coat. The fine powders, in Black and luminous Gold, create a jewel-like manicure. Whether applied to one nail as an accent or as a complete manicure, Dior Sparkling Nail powders create an elegant, brilliant couture finish.

So basically you paint your nails with the adhessive base coat and then sprinkle on the powder? At least that is how I read it. Glitter for your nails in a nail polish bottle instead of in pouches with a base coat marketed as 'special adhesive'

They have some at my local nordies and appear to be available online again so I might go peek but the powder part of Sparkling Nail Powders means too much work for me. My nails look half arsed when the glitz is suspended in polish I cannot imagine how an extra step would make them look better :sniff:

TO ALL OF YOU, one great big HONEY I'M HOME!!!! I had the best birthday ever, and the spa was AMAZING. The hubs out-did himself with flowers and champagne in the room upon our arrival. We embibed while over looking the lake and then I was off to my facial feeling very relaxed! Several days of amazing spa treatments, scrumptious food and loads of surprises---I'm still on cloud nine! I was able to haul NP while away---well sort of. As part of the mani-pedi that I was having they allow you to select two NPs that are your to keep. I had taken Chanel Elixer with me and that's what I had them apply to my fingers & toes. Among other things I left the resort with two new NPs and a boat load (or as Buick would say, "a zoo full") of amazing skincare products.

That write up is what made me take those polishes out of my cart. I need to see swatches and even then, I'm not sure I'll get much use out of them. Nevertheless, I'm keeping an open mind!
