Deborah Lippmann- Let's Go Crazy [Swatch]


To start the new year right, I thought I'd debut my first ever Deborah Lippmann swatch on Polish Hound: Deborah Lippmann- Let's Go Crazy.

I've been avoiding delving into the world of this wonderful brand because I didn't want to feel compelled to collect them all! But recently, Gilt.com had a great deal on several different sets, and I just couldn't pass them up for the price!



Let's Go Crazy is a royal purple jelly base containing a mix of variously-colored and sized hexagonal glitters.  There's silver, gold, green, fuchsia, blue, and orange- to name a few.

Artificial light, two coats:


Window-filtered daylight:



This is just a really pretty glitter/ base combination, and I find it very festive!

Outside, shade:




Formula: It's got a medium viscosity, and glides on the nail nicely!  I turned the bottle upside down for a about a half hour prior to using it because the glitters appeared to be concentrated at the bottom. I did not have to fish for glitter at all, and I didn't have to dab it on specially- which is a huge bonus.  The base really deepens after the second coat, and all I needed were two.  My favorite glitter formula I've tried in a long time!

    Very pretty! I tested this one at Sephora a couple months ago... I have yet to buy a DL, need to change that!

      It wasn't actually on my radar until the Gilt sale, but so happy I got it!
