pearl and gems of wisdom

I've owned OPI's Pearl of Wisdom for some time now but never tried it because I didn't really think I'd be that fussed on it and SURPRISE, I wasn't... It's a sheer pearly polish with some micro glitter and it's just a bit boring. I haven't given up on it entirely though. I still plan on trying it out over a black and hopefully that will jazz things up nicely but since it was already on my nails, I wasn't pleased and didn't feel like taking it straight off I added a couple of coats of Milani's Gems (a supposed dupe for Deborah Lippmanns Happy Birthday) and I rather liked the results. Cheerful/glittery nails. Well done Milani you saved the day!
