Day 10 Featuring Deborah Lippmann Stairway To Heaven

Good morning my fellow Lacquered Lovers! So, I have to confess. I cheated. I had a really busy night after work yesterday and got home very late and was so exhausted that I didn't have it in me to paint my nails before I passed out! So this morning, I grabbed another untried and just threw it on over yesterday's Man of La Mancha. So, I apologize for the cheat, however it is still technically an untried polish so I think I can get away with it. So now, without further ado, on to the polish!

So if you recall from yesterday, I had OPI Ink with OPI Man of La Mancha on top. Gorgeous multichrome. So this morning, I decided to try my new Deborah Lippmann Stairway to Heaven. I actually kind of like this combination! Stairway to Heaven is a sheer white, kind of thick polish that has greenish, tealish, purplish, goldish and orangish iridescent glitter suspended in it. Most of the glitter is square shaped but there is some round and hexagon shaped glitter thrown in. It's pretty awesome! Let's look at a macro shot:


Look at all those different colors and shapes! Now there are a few brands out there that have some sort of similar colors (China Glaze Snow Globe and one of the new MAC winter polishes come to mind) but as far as I know, none of them have square glitter or quite as many colors in the polish. I will try to do a comparison this weekend for you all! I actually really like Stairway to Heaven over a dark red like this, however I think you really get all the whimsical glittery awesomeness if it's layered over a lighter color. I'll be sure to do a full review of this with different "underwear" once the challenge is over!

So there you have it, Stairway to Heaven. I just love that all Lippmann polishes are named after songs! Stairway to Heaven definitely reminds me of snowflakes and I think it's a really cool polish to have in a holiday collection. Stairway to Heaven retails for $18 and since it's more of a layering polish, that $18 will take you a long way!

  4. Stairway To Heaven looks fabulous! And i don´t think its cheating when you apply one untried polish on another untried polish :P

  5. I wouldn't have thought that this layering would work, but it is great! and it isn't cheating, as you can't really wear stairway to heaven on its own, right? :)
