China Glaze Light As Air + Essie Shine of the Times

Hey girly girls. I'm starting to have my love of polish again and it's awesome. My personal life is still up in flames but at least I have nice nails. I've been craving pastels lately so today I have another pastel from China Glaze's Up & Away collection. This time it's a pale purple creme, Light As Air. This was a phenomenal polish formula-wise. It was barely streaky on the first coat and perfect at two. Here is a swatch:


It was great and sorry about the tip wear, I painted them last night and took pictures today. Anyways, I wanted to spruce it up a bit for my second observation tomorrow, so I added a coat of Essie Shine of the Times and magic happened. Shine of the Times is a flakie that shows mostly red/gold/green over dark colors, but over this purple, the flakes were red, gold, green, blue, and purple! It looks awesome. I couldn't just pick one picture so here's two:



Tell me it's not awesome and I'll call you a liar. I love love love this flakie, and I'm not much of a flakie kinda gal. Idk, when they were hard to find they were great but now that they're popping up everywhere, I'm just not that enthused. I'm happy with my Shine of the Times :)

What do you think? Do you like this combo? Are you rocking pastels yet? Let me know, thanks for reading! :)
