Bayou Blitz was a long time lemming for
sure—as long as I had wanted it, it had not been restocked I couldn’t find it
anywhere (except eBay :( = $$$). Then a stroke of luck hit when a sweet gal
swapped with me! I've said it before (no I haven't, but I will in the future) and I'll say it again: if you really love a lemming, let it free, and it will come to you.
Bayou Blitz arrived in all of its neon, black
light reactive glory, matte glitters ablaze from within. I hadn’t
actually thought about it until after application that Blitz is a matte glitter
(in a base of gorgeous sheer bluey green neonish wonder). As far as I can
remember this is my first matte glitter. I was having application problems, but
I think this is probably due to my impatience between coats drying.
I found my base had a little bit of the
goo quality that some colored jellies have and that is hard for me to work with
because I am polishing challenged. Second try was better for sure, but
because it was packed with teeny glitters I found removal to be best with some
individual pick off action combined with my regular acetone scrubby jar. Of course there was some fishing action with the gorgeous GIANT glitters, but I don't think it would be possible for there not to be for that sparse effect to take place, which looks great here, imo :)

I do wonder the story behind the name
on this. As far as I can tell the ONLY thing called Bayou Blitz is this polish. And maybe a band? Maybe my curiousity will be fulfilled when my dream of going to the
bayou is realized ;) PS. The Misfits to my knowledge DID NOT cover Ballroom Blitz.
