Matte glitter has made it’s way in to the mainstream this year. One of the offerings is Rimmel’s Pop Art Top Coat and it’s the first one I’ve tried myself. The polish is a glitter topper with uniformly sized hexes in a selection of bold colours.

Whenever I’m faced with a mutli-coloured glitter, I always have trouble deciding what base colour to pair it with. As you can probably see, this time I just gave up on the decision altogether and tried it over almost every colour of the rainbow! Turns out it perfectly compliments any shade so I needn’t have worried.

I had to use two thick coats of Pop Art, plus some dabbing, to get decent coverage and it still clumped in a few places. I found it a bit tricky to get enough glitter on the brush at first but there’s definitely a knack to it which I soon got the hang of. Despite the thick coats, once I added my top coat, it all dried nice and quickly so I wasn’t left with the ‘layered’ feeling – when you know the top coat is dry but everything underneath is still squishy and liable to shift about!
