Glow Up Already

 Glitter, my precious glitter. I absolutely love this color. Glow up Already is similar to Bring on the Bling but has a light green shade as the base. This was the first glitter I put on from this collection when I first got it. It is a sort of lime green that I love and I am not sure why.
 Applied well, dried fast, no issues with it at all.

Sparkle-icious

 Mardi Gras! This it what this polish reminds me of.
 Sparkle-icious is a bit different for the rest of the glitters in the Burlesque collection being that it only has three colors and one size glitter where the rest have multiple colors and varying sizes. That makes this glitter not as opaque.
 The picture is of three thin coats and you can see a bit of VNL, other than that it applied great, and dried fast.

The Show Must Go On

 This one was really hard to photograph. It leans pink,with glass flake and gold duochrome, though it is hard to see in these pictures it is easy to see in real life. This polish is perfect to me. The Show Must Go On is beautiful, easy to apply, dries quickly and it sparkles like crazy! What more could you want?

Take the Stage

 Much like Rising Star, Take the Stage is a copper shade with a glass flake shimmer to it. I really like this one, copper is so pretty to me.
 It applied great, dried fast, I had no issues with it.

Rising Star

 Rising Star is a rich gold shade. It does have a sparkle glass flake shimmer to it also that I like. Applied very smooth, two coats gives you complete coverage and it dried fairly quick.
 I only wish it went better with my skin tone. Maybe this summer when I am more out and about in the sun.

Extra-Va-Vaganza!

 Orange glitter today, reminds me of Halloween. I actually used this for my Halloween manicure to add more sparkle to it.
 Anyways, I can not say how much I have loved the Burlesque collection. Same thing goes for Extra-Va-Vaganza, dried fast no issues was opaque in three thin coats.

Show it and Glow It

 If I had to pick just one color from the Burlesque collection I think it might have to be this. Purple glitter, why yes I don't mind if I do.
 Show it and Glow It is perfect in my opinion. Picture is three thin coats, like the rest of the collection dried fast and I had no application issues what so ever. I have nothing else to say, the picture will do the talking for me.

 Please excuse my hands though, acetone is really drying and apparently I forgot to moisturize before taking these pictures

Ali's Big Break

 Red is not usually a color I wear very much but I have to admit I love this color. Ali's Brig Break is a beautiful red with what looks like glass flake. It is stunning, personally I think this looks way better on the nail than in the bottle! It just shines. 
 Application was great, dried in no time. The picture is of two coats, it could have used a third for my taste to bring out the depth a bit more but there was no real visible nail line with two.

OPI Tease-y does It

 Tease-y does it is also from the Burlesque collection. Very pretty, it looks to be a purple/brown base with red shimmer in it. It does have a bit of a duochrome gold somewhat green color to the shimmer. Tease-y does It is so much more gorgeous in person. 
 Drying time and formula was the same as the rest of this collection, awesome!

OPI Bring on the Bling

 Such a gorgeous gold glitter I wish I liked it better with my skin tone. Basically the same as the other glitters in the Burlesque collection. Bring on the Bling was easy to work with, great coverage with three thin coats and dried fast.
 I am still in love with the Burlesque collection. If you haven't picked up any of these colors I highly recommend them!

OPI Simmer and Shimmer

 Not much to say about this one. I really like the light blue. At first I thought I wasn't going to get this one because it seemed close to Absolutely Alice, it is not. Simmer and shimmer is much lighter. It goes on well and dries fast as all the glitters in this collection. The picture is three thin coats but don't be like me and try to put them on to quickly as the glitter will drag. I did not notice my middle finger until I posted the picture.

Mad as a Hatter compared to Sparkle-icious

 Many people have been asking is Sparkle-icious from the OPI Burlesque collectione dupe for Mad as a Hatter. I am sorry to say it is not.
 Sparkle-icious has three colors, gold, blue and pink where as Mad as a hatter has several different color glitters of different sizes in it. The glitter in Sparkle-icious seems to all be the same size glitter.
 Although, if you can not get Mad as a Hatter I suggest layering Sparkle-icious over a dark silver like Lucerne-tainly Look Marvelous, it appears much more the same that way.
 This picture is one coat. Mad as a Hatter is on pinky and middle and Sparkle-icious in on ring and index


 These pictures are three thin coats.

Let Me Entertain You from OPIs Burlesque Collection




 Let Me Entertain you is a fuchsia with gold and maybe pink shimmer to it, very hard for me to describe. Sometimes it leans reddish to purple hued to me. I honestly thought I was going to hate it.
 Seeing as I loved all the other colors in the collection I went ahead and got this one just to try it and see what I thought. It isn't my favorite of the collection just because I am a glitter freak and absolutely love all of the other colors as well. I have to say though when I put it on I was pleasantly surprised! I am not a big red fan, the reds in this collection seem to be made for me though, I don't know why that is. This entire collection calls to me!
 Let Me Entertain You is way better on the nail than in the bottle I thought. Formula was smooth, the pictures are three coats. Don't mind the smudge on my ring finger, I hit the camera taking pictures and didn't notice until after I had taken it off. It also dried fast as well.
  No complaints on this or any of the Burlesque collection either. Great job on this one OPI! I just hope future collections are as wonderful as well.
