China Glaze’s Jitterbug

Almost exactly the same as Lucerne-tainly Look Marvelous. Just a teeny bit darker, with slightly denser microglitter. But for me, China Glaze colors generally wear better and last longer than OPI colors…and they cost less, which is another bonus. (I also got full coverage in two coats with Jitterbug, but really needed three for Lucerne-tainly Look Marvelous.)

Because of the texture, I don't know that this polish would work well for any kind of nail stamping…unless the designs didn't have lots of superfine detail. And, of course, those are the designs I like using the most!
