NOTD: Jelly Sandwich with Jolly Lolly and Unwrap Me

It's been a while since I did a jelly sandwich, and this week I must have been in the mood for strawberry jam.  Cause that's what's on my nails, no lie.
Actually, it's the pinky red Jolly Lolly by L'Oreal, and Unwrap Me from the Sinful Colors 2013 Holiday collection.  My Rite Aid had a special a few weeks back where you could get one Sinful Color polish for free, so I chose the black and red glitter bomb Unwrap Me.
You can see how pink leaning Jolly Lolly is as it's almost the color of the rose above.  Really beautiful, and I'm kind of wishing I had a backup now.  It takes only 2 coats to get this level of color, which is not always the case with jelly polishes. 
I never get tired of black glitter polishes, and Unwrap me has a nice mixture of black micro glitter and larger hexagonals in black and red.  I used one coat of Unwrap me in between Jolly Lolly, and I mainly dabbed it on and then spread it out.  I used Julep's base coat and Freedom gel top coat, which amped the shine even more.
I'm counting this as the beginning of my holiday looks, although I think it would be great during the summer as well.  And heck, the temp is 75 as I write this, so it might as well be :-)
