Illamasqua Noble with NOPI Sweet Dreams

Hey hey!

So Illamasqua is a brand that I've always wanted to try but have always been too broke to buy. I cannot afford it on a college budget. I was really happy when my boyfriend bought me some for Christmas. Today I have Noble to show you.

Noble is a nice bright turquoise-ish blue. It's like a robin's egg only...better. It's super opaque, too. For my mani, I only used one coat. Here's a pick-cha:

I do have to warn you, I had to adjust the colors a little bit to make this more true to life. It wanted to photograph as a light blue. For the glitter gradient, I used Nicole by OPI Sweet Dreams, from the Selena Gomez collection. It has green/blue and silver hex glitters with purple micro glitter. I'm pretty obsessed with glitter gradients atm.

What do you think? Do you like this color? How about glitter gradients? Thanks for reading! :D
