Young Nails, LeChat, Light Elegance. And I don't pre mix in a container either. I have 100 different glitter colors, there is NO WAY. And most want a different color anyway. I have to get a pic of my "bling tree" I told you guys about.
It is a necklace holder, looks like a tree without leaves, fall or winter. And I have the fan discs from Light Elegance, looks like spoons. I hang them from the trees!!! Also have another tree with nothing but color polish Best polish display system I have EVER FOREVER EVER came up with!!! Clients think they are all new colors, nope, same old stuff!!!
