OMG I cannot thank you enough for releasing the new "Sheer" nail polish collection for the summer. You have seriously made my whole summer because of these wonderful new nail polishes. I was on the market for a jelly polish that I could layer glitter in between and now I think I have found my new love. Not only does your polish have the perfect amount of sheerness to it so that the glitter can peak through, the pigmentation is also just out of this world. I can't wait to go back to the Mall and purchase more so I can do some ombre nails next.
Lots of love,

Hey girls!
Haha today I have a super fun nail tutorial to share with you guys. A jelly nail sandwich is dare I say it, even yummier than the real thing. This is a super simple look that just involves sandwiching a layer of glitter in between two coats of polish. It gives a cool 3-D look to the glitter, as if it's floating in the polish. This look cannot be achieved with any old polish. It takes a polish of a sheer and jelly nature to make it successful.
I have been waiting forever to be able to test out this look since I've been having a hard time finding the right jelly polish for a reasonable price. There are some scattered Essie's that I know have a sheer finish, but I find it hard to make myself purchase them for $8 each. I have heard that Revlon's "Sheer Seafoam" is a jelly-like polish but it lacks the serious pigmentation I want in a polish. When I thought all hopes were lost, I found myself wandering American Apparel to just browse and my eyes instantly met the new "Sheer" polishes. I didn't believe it was possible, and yet there it was. I used the tester and absolutely fell in love with the finish and immediately thought of some jelly nail sandwiches! Without blinking an eye I picked up a super pretty coral color for only $5 called "Manhattan Beach" just to try and now that I'm completely in love, I'll definitely be going back to pick up her sisters. Sigh... it is possible to be so in love with an inanimate object?
