Woohoo fireworks time! And what better fireworks polish than one that sets off its own lightshow too? This is Serum No 5's What a Blast.

Blast is a sheer grey-white packed with red, white, and blue glitters, plus silver holo star glitter. I've layered 2 coats of it over one coat of OPI Calling All Goddesses (a translucent grey-white), but it would be pretty without undies too.

Glitter payoff was fantastic, with a very even spread of all the little bits with swiped coats. I dabbed the 2nd coat only a little to fill in more around my cuticle edges, but this wasn't at all a fussy glitter. Very conveniently, the larger stars tended to stick to the brush longer, so I could place them more on top of the other glitters for about half my nails. It's of course very textured and topcoat hungry, and I could still feel some rough bits here and there after 2 layers of topcoat.

And of course, SN5 polishes are usually awesome glow-in-the-darks. The glow was much brighter IRL than here, but I did need to "charge" my nails near a bright light source for a few minutes to get the best effect.
Rating: a fun 3 out of 5 stars. I'm not going to get frequent wear out of this color combo, but it's 100% perfect for 4th of July festivities.
Where to buy: this was a 2014 release, so might not be restocked again, or frequently, but you can still pick it up
direct from SN5.
