Nubar Angelic Glitter

Yesterday I had the Nubar Angelic Glitter layered over black, which is my preferred way of wearing it, but I wanted to show you how it looks alone, too.


Nubar Angelic Glitter. This is three coats plus topcoat. It's gorgeous, but see what I was saying about all that yellow in the base? The base is not a jelly; it's just sheer yellow. And I really don't think it's supposed to be yellow, either. Like I mentioned, the website shows it with a clear base, but mine arrived brand new from Nubar already yellow. Maybe this one is just prone to yellowing, as some glitters with clear bases tend to be. The glitter in it really is fantastic and it's excellent for layering, but I would totally wear it alone if it had a clear base.


Since it already has a strong yellow/green shift, I thought I'd try it over green to see how it looked. This is one coat of Nubar Angelic Glitter over two coats of Borghese Euro Green. Pretty nice! I also really love this over a brown creme or shimmer. This would probably look good over just about anything, though.


So... I have a little request. Do any of you have a bottle of Angelic Glitter (or Shimmering Tulle) that actually has a clear base? And if so, would you mind linking me to your swatches (or emailing me if you don't have a blog)? I'm really, really curious to see if a) it exists with a clear base, and b) what it looks like without the added yellow tones. An image search turned up pretty much nothing, but I really am dying to know!
