Color Description: Milani's Silver Dazzle (SD) One Coat Glitter lacquer is a blackened charcoal glitter that really comes alive with the right topcoat! However, without a topcoat it's the closest thing to asphalt that I've ever worn on my nails - from the look to the texture, it's very dark and intriguing. I wore SD to a gala last night with a long black dress and this jacket, it was a perfect match.Similar To: You tell me? No serious, I'd love to hear what else this is close to because I pulled out my OPI Lucerne-tainly Look Marvelous and Brand New Skates - similar in color but look and texture, definitely not dupes. SD contains brilliant chunky glitter, while the others are more fine and subdued.
This Look: Okay so you can wear this color multiple ways. 1) one coat lacquer, no topcoat - for that asphalt look and feel, or 2) one coat lacquer, one coat topcoat - for a semi-flat, still textured look, or lastly, like I'm wearing in the pic, 3) two coats lacquer, two coats topcoat - for an out of this world blackened charcoal glitter-fest on the nail. I was in a rush last night so I wore option #2.
Price Point/Availability: Milani SD is said to be installed in the core line eventually, however, when I picked it up it retailed for $5.00 and was on a promotional display. I still see some CVS's with this display so you should be able to find it. The NailShine Miracle is currently clearance priced at CVS for 75% off and that's the only reason why I tried it. I'm so glad I did, this stuff is AMAZING.
