This summer, I got an Essie nail polish in Bikini so Teeny and an Essie Luxe Effects Top Coat in Stroke of Brilliance through Klout Perks. I decided to try them together. The result was an easy to do fun and sparkly nail look.
Bikini so Teeny is a pretty light pastel blue. I normally don’t care for how blue looks on me, but I really like this one.
Essie Luxe Effects top coat ads texture and sparkle with flecks of metallic color. Stroke of Brilliance has nice silver blue flecks.
I found luxe effects pretty easy to apply and it wore incredibly well. I thought it might chip off quickly because of the texture, but instead it lasted much longer than I normally get. I think the metallic flecks must help bind things and prevent chipping to some extent. Overall, I really like the look too!
Here is a quick video of the look as well.

bikini so teeny is gorgeous! i need it!
It is a wonderful shade. I don’t normally wear blues well, but I love this one. The luxe effects top coat worked particularly well with it too. Heck, even my husband who hates blue polish on me liked this look!
Ohhhh, I love this!!!
