Anyway, here is a funny franken I made a while ago. I actually don't like this one. It's gloopy and chunky and far from perfect, but it looks nice on nails from a distance. In summer I had this crazy(!) idea to pour some glitter in clear polish, but the cosmetic glitter I found was too expensive. So me and my boyfriend went to the craftstore and got a jar of glitter. I poured some in a bottle of clear polish on the street, and accidentaly poured some on my guy's jeans too, which made him glitter like a bug for a day. (Yes, we're still together.) Then I put the bottle in my bag and went home. It was only 5 minutes, and the glitter had already tinted the clear polish heavily, and turned silver itself. The result was not bad in the bottle, but the pieces are not uniform and the glitter is too big, I'll probably never wear that again.

Excuse my cuticles, they have healed after this. (I'm still wearing the Jade Franken, this is an older picture.) Next time I'm going to get some duochrome cosmetic glitter and try again.

I like the color of the polish. I read on Nevertoomuchglitter about the glitter from craft stores. You have to try just a little at a time. Some of the glitters do just what yours did tint the polish and turn silver.
