Deborah Lippmann Cosmic Love is just about the glitteriest glitter that ever glittered. This sparklefest has a lightly tinted pink base filled to the brim with purple, gold and magenta holo glitter. Cosmic Love was originally part of a holiday minis set (which is how I picked it up) but DL knows what's up and eventually released Cosmic Love for a limited time as a full-sized, standalone shade. From what I can gather, its release as a single polish was a Nordstrom exclusive, but now the only place it seems to be available is through sites like Ebay.
I was expecting this polish to be super thick, especially since I have a mini bottle, but it was surprisingly nice! With glitters like this one, I find the dabbling method of application works best. Using that technique, I was able to get it to complete opacity in three coats. I followed up with Nail Pattern Boldness Glitter Food (full review coming soon) to get everything nice and smooth, before finishing up with DL's Gel Lab Top Coat.
I absolutely adore this polish! The holo makes it even more eye-catching and even in low light, it glimmers and sparkles like crazy. I found myself stopping to stare at it quite a bit! It's been a while since we've been treated to another batch of Lippmann glitters, which sucks because they're always so stunning and DL has made some truly unique glitters over the years. But I have my fingers crossed we'll get more polishes like Cosmic Love sometime soon!
Such a pretty glitter that is!
