On Saturday I went with a friend to her work's banquet via the best friend pact- when you don't have a date to a fancy function, take your best friend haha. For that I wore a pretty gold polish that I got a while back from Ulta. The thing was, it was glittery so removal for a new color was... difficult.

When removing glittery nail polish in the past, I'd always just scrubbed with acetone, a frustratingly slow process. Glitter is crazy hard to get rid of! I decided this time to try what Pinterest has been going crazy about: wrapping tin foil around acetone soaked cotton on your nail. All the tutorials I looked at said leave it on for a couple minutes, but I found that I had to leave mine on for around four or five minutes. Not being able to use my hands for five minutes was a real pain, but it definitely removed the glitter easier than normal.

Tired of the light gold I'd had for the past few days, I chose a deep purple. It's cheaper than my last few colors I've used, and one that I've had for a long time. Definitely a fave. It requires two coats. One coat is definitely too light, you can see through it and see brush strokes, but two coats blends perfectly with great coverage and opacity.
