Malibu Barbie strikes again!

I was grooving on China Glaze's blue-gray Sea Spray and was attempting a PAA Monday Nail Challenge- Fierce Accent Nail and had just picked up this deep teal Revlon named Fashionista I found at Walgreens- I can't find anything on it, not a swatch or review- it was in a display labeled "New Colors" and they all were like nothing I had seen from Revlon before? Anyway, I made a flower with the teal then dotted it with Sonia Kashuk's chrome-on-crack Smoke and Mirrors and decided it was way too plain, so I laid a layer of Essence Edward over it. Seche Clear under and Seche Vite over. If I could wear blue, this would be perfect (and if I was 8 years old!) Good thing I have an understanding boss.

Out of Ideas-

So my brilliant daughter at college suggested I try a "Theme" week/month. So here you go- Golds! I love gold, rarely wear silver except as an accent, so this first one is the beautiful GR8 from China Glaze. It's the only one of the OMG collection I could afford on ebay besides FYI. It's a yellow-gold linear holo, actually, I think it's the weakest of the collection, but still gorgeous in it's own right. Of course, I couldn't leave well enough alone and had to dot it up with Nubar Conserve, a deep teal glassfleck. This is two coats over NfuOh Aqua Fix base and one topcoat of Out the Door. The tc does dull the holo a bit, but not nearly as much with China Glaze as it does the NfuOh holos.

China Glaze Meteor Shower over Orly Star of Bombay

One, yes ONE coat of each!  First pic is fuzzy so you can see the colors! TC is Gelous and Revlon Quick Dry- still a little bumpy, this needed Seche. I also have a bit of Smurf cuticles from the Orly...

Joanne, this one is for you!

I was challenged by a friend at church to wear a light color- this is as light as it gets for me, apart from yummie holos- Essie Nutmeg (2 coats) with a swipe of China Glaze's awesome Mahoganie (great glitter with holo glitter, bad spelling! lol)
