Glitter Gal Lizard Belly or how to bring linear holo to a whole new level...

There's no introduction to Glitter Gal.
The Australia based cosmetics company has made itself a name in the nail polish world with not one but two bedazzling and highly coveted holographic ranges.


Lizard Belly probably was the Glitter Gal polish I had been lemming the most based on the swatches I had seen online. It is everything I expected it to be and more. Dark, mysterious, hunter green, illuminated by a rainbow of sparkle, I'm not sure its inner beauty could be captured on camera. Formula wise, it was pure perfection : two  smooth, self applying coats that dried to a high shine finish. *sigh*








Overall :
Lizard Belly is a holo lover must have. The color of the base is gorgeous and the linear effect is truly amazing, even more dramatic than in my swatches. I can't wait for a sunny day to wear it and let its mesmerising beauty express itself!


Did you know that Glitter Gal uses a very specific kind of holographic pigment? I could really see the difference once I had one of their bottles in my hands.

Here's how Glitter Gal explains it : 
We use “true” holographic particles in our formulation.  This one ingredient is 30 times more expensive than any other nail polish ingredient.  Thus making our holographic nail polish the highest quality possible.  You will notice the smoothness to the finish of polish, and reflective effects are amazing.  They are also the “Big 3 Free”. 
Many other companies have tried create holographics, but use the more affordable ingredients, which don’t give the polishes the same effect, we didnt want to compromise on quality and wanted to deliver to our customers a true holographic formulation.


Glitter Gal products can be purchased online on glittergal.com.au (international delivery) and on various nail polish etailers.
They retail for AUD$11.95, 9ml and will soon be available in full size / 15ml.

    This is probably gonna be *the* polish that makes me throw my budget restrictions out the window and go for it. :) There have been temptations before but nothing like Lizard Belly.
