my favorite nail look at the moment is gradiant glitter nails and i can do a beautiful pink or purple or fushia gradiant glitter nails with this. i lay down a nail color on the tip of my nails and then start the gradiant effect with this and it is gorgeous and glamorous. i get compliments all the time. this wears 6 to 7 days without chipping with a good base and a top coat. it is sparkly....blings up your nails instantly!

This is the perfect name for this polish. It has the most amazing holographic glitter in a slightly sheer cotton-candy-pink base, but looks amazing layered over other pinks as well for a more opaque color. It also looks great over black as a top coat (I recommend over OPI Lincoln Park After Dark.) The wide brush is great, the wear time is excellent (I bought this color specifically for prom, and it ended up lasting for about a week afterwards), removal can be a pain but that's to be expected from a glitter polish.

I bought this nail polish when it first came out and was really impressed. It is a really pretty girly pink and silver glitter polish. It is really loaded with glitter and has good nail coverage. The wide OPI brush makes it easy to apply, and it lasts for ages on the nail before chipping (usually about a week). I really love the look of this on my nails but tend to wear it over the top of princesses rule... so I don't have to waste too much of Teenage Dream lol. My only complaint is that after a few months there seemed to be separation in the bottle... the bottle looks more like silver glitter than pink. I don't know whether it has lost it's colour or the silver glitter is just sitting on the surface of the bottle... has anyone else found this? One of my favourite glitter polishes. I really love glitter polish but I wish they were easier to remove.

This has to be one of the best glitter polishes I have purchased in a long time as the durability is amazing! This polishes stays on my nails for 10 days without chipping or flaking. I find this polish quite versatile too as it can be worn alone or over top a variety a pink polishes for a little extra colour pop. Great polish and definitely repurchase.

I hate pink. I love this colour. My favourite way to wear it is over OPI Yokohama Twilight, just to give it a little depth. But it's sparkly and beautiful and classy and fun. Application and wear are excellent. I love wearing this on holidays when I want low maintenance nails - I have only minor chips in week 2. It's buildable but adds plenty of sparkle in one coat. I use Seche Vite topcoat which smooths out the finish. As with all glitters, removal seems nearly impossible - I use the foil over remover soaked cotton trick which makes it tolerable. Totally worth it though!

I am really surprised how much I like this. I bought this when it first came out and finally got around to wearing it. Like others have said, it is surprisingly not too childish or tacky looking as many glitter polishes can be. It has a lot of depth - a translucent pink jelly base, pale pink microshimmer and large holographic glitter. It really does look like suspended layers of color and texture. I used 3 layers on my hands and the result was great. I did add another layer of Seche Vite top coat the next day to get rid of the slight gritty texture that all glitter polishes leave. I'm not sure if it was this extra layer of top coat or a superior formula, but this polish did not chip or peel away as previous OPI glitters have. It lasted a full week and I only had to remove it because my nails grew. If only it was as great and easy to remove, but definitely doesn't prevent me from using again and recommending to everyone.

Soooo pretty!! I wear this over a light shade just to make sure my nails don't show through. The very fine sparkle and larger glitter is adorable. It's not too over the top and I get compliments every time I wear this. It's girly without being little girly.

Love, love, LOVE this polish! I'm not usually a fan of glitter polishes, I think they tend to look a bit tacky, but this one is so pretty and not at all in-your-face. I like to do a base coat of OPI's 'Malaysian Mist' underneath because I don't like my tips showing through translucent shades, and it compliments it nicely. Also like that once a top coat is applied it doesn't feel too 'sandpapery' like some glitters. Would definitely buy it again!

I have finally found a glittery nail polish that I absolutely adore!! The glitters are not chunky like most glitter polishes and this one glows like crazy! I love the pink glow and the big brush in the bottle applies it very smoothly. This is by far the best glitter polish I have ever used! It's a bit pricey for nail polish I agree, but once you try it, you'll never put it down! Well worth the $8!!

I think this might be my favorite polish of all time! I bought three originally, but I ended up swapping one out because I'll never go through three bottles let alone two! It's a goregous sparkiling pink color :) As with all glitter polishes it is a pain to take off, but it is well worth it!
I have noticed a few other OPI colors using the same formula of glitter polish with a few other polishes that I have come across, which is great because the formula is pretty awesome for a glitter.

I've never gotten more compliments on my nails as I did with Teenage Dream. I paired it with Pink Friday from the Niki Minaj collection and it sparkles like crazy.

The glitter spreads really thin and even, and dries fast too. This might just be my new favorite glitter top coat.

I can't wait to play around with it and try it on different polishes.

This polish inspires lovey feelings in me. I wasn't that interested until I spotted the bottle in person, shimmering so splendidly under those JCP Salon halogen lights. I wore it on my birthday shortly after and plan on doing so again this year. It's that special! It delivers intense sparkle yet manages to remain delicate. I don't layer it over anything and use 2-3 coats. The tiniest hint of my nails shows through but I like that, I think it adds to the delicate feel.

It pains me so to write this review, but in all fairness, I must.

Strike 1: I'm not a Katy Perry fan.
Strike 2: I loathe removing glitter polishes, so rarely use them.
Strike 3: Overhyped products usually turn me 180-degrees away.

Sounds bad, doesn't it? I had NO interest in this polish whatsoever. One afternoon, though, I was stalking the aisles of a local beauty-supply store and saw the most gorgeous bottle of intense sparkling goodness on the 1/2-price shelf. I snatched it up without even thinking, before realizing I'd just picked up...Teenage Dream. *sigh*

I mulled it over a couple of minutes, then shamelessly picked up the remaining two bottles on the shelf, as well.

I tend to wear lavender, pink, and fuchsia polishes as a rule, and this holo-glitter masterpiece looks brilliant over all of them! This is a stunning polish with very good wear-time, and I would... however sheepishly... recommend it to anyone.

I'm waaay over the age of the target-audience for the polish, but hey... sometimes you just gotta do what your cosmetic-instincts command. :)

This is one of my favorite polishes of all time, I bought this when it first came out, and have since bought a few back up bottles. The pink doesn't look that strong once it goes on my nails but after about 2-3 coats it shows up nicely. The holographic glitters was what drew me to the polish, but the glitters aren't chunky with a nice layer of top coat. The glitters and the pink really complement each other. I normally wear this by it self but I do use Black Shatter once in a while.

This is an uber girly polish, and recently I've been finding myself lemming over glitter packed polishes! I do have other pink sparkly polishes, but the slightly larger rainbow holographic sparkles add a unique and fun look, when used over a pink. I was curious if the sheer pink formula would become opaque enough to be used on its own, without a base color. At 3 coats I was still not 100% satisfied - though it was not completely terrible looking. I actually found the look pretty.



That being said I do prefer it over a light or medium pink. As with any glitter polish it's stubborn during removal, so I like to let the remover soaked cotton pad sort of "sit" on the nail before wiping it off if that makes any sense! Over all I think it's cute, decent quality and I would repurchase!

I love this nail polish, the colour and effect is gorgeous. However, I do find, like the other OPI glittery polishes that I have, that it easily chips/peels off the nails. As it's so full of glitter it open peels off the nails all in one go, i've tried a base and top coat but unfortunately no luck, which is a shame because I love this polish. I don't find myself reaching for this very often as it has no staying power.

This nail polish is part of the Katy Perry collection. It is a nice light frosty pink with a ton of light reflecting glitters in it! It takes two coats for full opacity. It's very pretty worn alone or topped with OPI's Black Shatter! 5/5 Stars

I love holo glitter, so this polish gets high marks for that. The pink jelly has a nice tint to it, really pretty. I only layer with it and have never tried to go opaque on its own, but this use has been really gorgeous. It applies just fine and I love the way it sparkles!

I'm just now getting into nail polish and my SO bought this for me as a gift. I love it so much. It's pink, glittery, super-girly and perfect for polishers who are beginners as it is pretty light so it leaves more room for mistakes! It dries quickly which is nice too. I used three coats myself and it's lovely.
