Polishology: OPI Serena Williams Grand Slam - Spark de Triomphe .

OPI Serena Williams Grand Slam - Spark de Triomphe and White Shatter Swatches and Review
Phew, that is a long post title! Today I desire to deal with you one of the new OPI Serena Williams collaborations - a duo of a gorgeous glitter and white shatter. This and another duo coincide with the French Open

Serena Grand Slam Gold %2B White Polishology: OPI Serena Williams Grand Slam - Spark de Triomphe .

The base polish in this duo is Spark de Triomphe, which has got to be one of the more amazing glitter polishes I have seen in awhile!

Here is three coats for full coverage (click to see detail):

Spark de Triomphe 2 Polishology: OPI Serena Williams Grand Slam - Spark de Triomphe ...Outdors, shade
Spark de Triomphe 1 Polishology: OPI Serena Williams Grand Slam - Spark de Triomphe ...Outdoors, full sun This glitter bomb is packed with both argent and gold glitter in various shapes and sizes, giving this an amazing effect. I wore this for a full manicure for various years and I take to say, I felt like I had jewel encrusted nails! The overall result of the golden and silver combination is more of a neutral champagne color, very classy. I got rather a lot of compliments on this one! Application was typical for a dense glitter - quick to dry, but you can accidentally drive the glitter around if you don't make it enough time in between coats. Dries with a bit of a gritty surface but a layer or two of top coat should take charge of that if it bothers you. Removal was a bit of a pain, as it is with all dense glitters - I highly commend the foil method!

White Shatter Polishology: OPI Serena Williams Grand Slam - Spark de Triomphe ...Outdoors, shade Now on to the shatter combination! Spark de Triomphe is mated with White Shatter. I look alike the colors do go together rather nicely, however it's a bit sad to back up the amazingness that is Spark de Triomphe. A nice combination, but I let a notion I will be lots more probably to use White Shatter over something else, and let Spark de Triomphe stand alone as a polish.

Overall Review: Spark de Triomphe is a must have, and White Shatter is a great basic shatter color to add to your collection if you wish the shatter look. I would definitely recommend picking this one up!
