Glittery Goodness: Deborah Lippmann Cleopatra in New York

You know those nail polish colors that just seem to call to you across time and space? The ones that keep you up at night since you're unable to stop thinking about how gorgeous they must be in person? Well, that's how I felt about Deborah Lippmann Cleopatra in New York. And you know what? It's even MORE amazing in person than I could ever have dreamed.

I'm normally not a fan of black nail polish -- it's just a little too goth for my taste -- but I decided to make an exception for this one, since it's jazzed up with tons of gold glitter. Deborah Lippmann really has the glitter thing down like none other. I love that there are pieces of glitter of all different sizes and varieties here.

The polish also covered much better than I was expecting. One coat was on the thin side, though much more glitter came out of the bottle than I thought I would see. But two coats? As you can see from the photo above, they're creamy, glittery and completely delightful.

This color is most definitely a stunner. It's one of those shades you just can't stop staring at once it's on your nails! It retails for $19 at beauty.com.
