Today, I decided to wear China Glaze's Exceptionally Gifted for my mani. It's actually my first time trying a China Glaze polish. This bottle was on the display for breast cancer month at Sally's. I just had to get it, not only to support the cause, but also because it was so pretty.
Exceptionally Gifted is a frosty pale pink color and at certain angles I see a hint of gold. I'm in LOVE with this color. I love how girly it is, lol.
The formula for this polish is pretty good. It goes on a bit streaky, but you don't even notice it after the second coat. Also, I love that this only needed 2 coats.
I used Sally Hansen Hard as Nails as a base coat and Seche Vite as a top coat.
To complete this mani, I layered it with an Orly glitter (a clear base with pink glitter). Unfortunately, it doesn't have a name on it, so if any of you recognize it, please feel free to share ;0).
Here are the pics:
