Darling Diva Polish Red After the Wolf....And My Heart

Hey lacquer ladies,

I sat down with every intention of doing some bad-ass stamping today and in preparation painted my nails and then promptly fell in love.  I fell so hard I'm still knocking twigs and rocks out of my clothes lol.  It started innocently with Spoiled Breakfast in Red and Pumping Gas.  I bought these polishes with the intention of stamping on them for QCing my plates, but didn't expect much in terms of formula etc. However the formula was flawless and smooth as butter.  I almost stopped after seeing how insanely pretty this combo was together, but I knew this would make perfect undies for Darling Diva Polish's Red After the Wolf.

Isn't this gorgeous? Despite the curling seen here the application of this glitter was like butter and it went on very smooth. 



These are the Spoiled undies that almost seduced me away from applying RATW.  The formula on these was flawless. This is three coats pictured below.

My nails practically glowed from Breakfast in Red.  It is truly a beautiful color, but I love Pumping Gas just as much as I do have a weakness for brown polishes.

DDP's RATW is a glitterbomb packed full of red large and small hexagons and crystal glitter in a clear base.  It reminded me of looking into fire!  These pictures were all taken without topcoat so you can see the finish on this glitter is quite smooth.

Even in the shade you can still see all the depth of RATW.

When I did finally apply topcoat all the hexes laid completely flat and uncurled which made me happy because tacoing is the devil.

I'm still very much in love with the slogan for DDP's bottles :)

What do you think of the final product? As you can see no nail art made it onto my nails, but I couldn't be happier! If you are interested in Red After the Wolf you'll have to contact Darling Diva Polish via her etsy since I haven't seen it listed there for quite a while.  You can also check out some of her other amazing polishes as well.  Thanks so much for reading and I'll see you next post! Toodles!

    1. Oh I do that a lot! Brown is a "holding" color it gets a lot of work in my "nail wardrobe".
