Lynnderella Connect the Dots! (the answer to: What Glitter Can Reform a Glitter-Hater?)

Yeah, yeah...I know. And I am still not a fan of a lot of glitters. I like flakies, glass fleck, shimmer, micro-glitter and a lot of other finishes (even though creme is still my favorite finish) but haven't ever been a fan of chunky, in-your-face, rough-feeling glitter bombs.

But just LOOK AT THIS!!!

Lynnderella Connect the Dots would melt the heart of the staunchest glitter-hater, right?

With that said, though, I'm still not a fan of chunky glitter-bombs. It took this special, "classy" bottle of goodness to snag me. Yes, I called a glitter classy. What?

I started with the idea that I would wade slowly into the glitter-pond with an accent nail. So I started with Revlon Colorstay Spanish Moss as a base.

Added Connect the Dots to the ring finger and ended up with this...

But how do you stop there??? I decided to go full-bore.

I tried to snag this polish from Llarowe and  just missed it. A dear friend knew how badly I was wanting it and sent her bottle to me she'd gotten back when Lynn was selling them herself. How exactly do you "return the favor" for a gift like THAT?  We actually did a trade, but I'm positive I got the better end of that trade!

I was pretty surprised that I didn't feel the need to "arrange" the glitter pieces on my nails. That's what I was most worried about. But it's SO random that it almost seems orderly. And I didn't even realize it had the shimmer.  LOVE! ♥

Connect the Dots, as well as the rest of the Lynnderella collection, can be purchased through Leah Ann at Llarowe. Currently, the stock is limited, but "like" Llarowe's Facebook page or sign up for emails on the website and you will be kept up-to-date on availability. Leah Ann ROCKS.

Only a few more days to enter my Winter Giveaway! Ends February 8th - Enter Here!

  8. Connect the dots looks great with this base color, great choice. It is amazing how it can change with different base colors.

    Lynderella is THE nail polish brand that I really lust for and Connect the dots is my holy grail of nail polishes.
    I really hope from the bottom of my heart that they will NEVER change the formula and the quantity/quality of the glitters that are inside because it is absolutely perfect the way it is.

    I am waiting for CTD to be available again, I think I will have it shipped to me in Paris since they don't ship to Italy. I also would love so much to put my hands on a couple of others beauties such as Ruby red ruby and Matter of the heart.

    Lynderella is doing a great job at being creative, which means that it IS possible to have a little fantasy and to do something different from all the dupes that are around the market.

  11. This looks really great! I'm not big on chunky glitter either, but I think because this isn't too dense, it looks really nice!

  12. If you like Connect the Dots and that Jackson Pollock look, then you will love Emily de Molly Abstract Canvas. I got mine from Llarowe and it is SOOO cool! It has the same artsy feel...plus large black circle glitters.
