I've probably lost my glitter loving mind with this one.
I started with four coats of China Glaze CG in the City. I wanted it to be as opaque as possible.
Then I added a generous coat of Color Club It's a Hit!
CG in the City is a funky mix of different colored tiny glitters. Purple seems to be dominant when I look at the bottle, but on the nail I noticed a ton of silver and black (I think?), which gave it an overall kind of grayish silver feel.
It's a Hit! is mega chunky purple textured hex glitter. It actually wasn't too hard to handle during application. The hexes mostly went where I wanted them to go, with a little coaxing.
I used Lynnderella's Glitter Tamer and Poshe over everything and it was in fact nearly smooth. :)

It's seriously cool. I just got that glitter myself, and can't wait to try it out. :)
In some of the pictures I've seen of the Backstage Pass collection, it almost looks like the hexes are curled up or curved. Is that the case or do they lie flat like most glitters?
Sarah - I would say that a few are a bit curved, yeah. Most of them are great and flat, but I did notice a couple of spots that wanted to poke through my top coats! I was able to kind of push them down flat, though. :)
