As I'm sure most of you know, today is World Autism Awareness Day, and a lot of bloggers in the nail community are showing their support by wearing blue manis. Some are only doing the day while others are doing the whole month of April. I have decided to dedicate my Try It On Tuesday's, all April to blue manis, to show my support. I don't have a personal story to share about autism but I know that some of the people in my life deal with the struggles of autism, due to the lack of awareness every day. I show my support for them! If you would like to learn more about what autism is please click the photo above and it will direct you to a website with a lot of important information.
When I was thinking about which polish I wanted to use for this mani I knew instantly I Believe I Can Fly was perfect. Part of Nail Pattern Boldness' R.Kelly collection, named for his inspirational song. I felt it was appropriate for the theme.
I Believe I Can Fly...
...a blue jelly with two sizes of silver squares and red micro glitter.
All photos of I Believe I Can Fly are shown as 2 coats topped with 1 coat of Glitter Food and 1 coat off Mega Shine.
I purchased this waaaaaaay back over last summer, as part of an early birthday gift to myself, I used it once but only as an accent nail and I have wanted to use it for a full mani for along time now. This beauty has a ton of glitters packed into it, there is definitely no fishing needed! Since there are so many glitters, you do want to wait in between coats so the glitters don't start to drag and clump. If you preferred a less glittery look you could easily layer this over another blue. I did use a coat of Glitter Food, since there was so much glitter, I just wanted to ensure a smooth finish.
What do you think about this glittery blue? I love it and I'm glad I finally got to use it.
