Dots alot of fun!

Time for pastels- random ones I normally use for nail art, but they seemed kind of ice creamy together- plain white dots tie it all up! Poshe over-

Poor broken pointer growing out :(

MSMD with Color Club Halo Hues 2013

Paulina did a beautiful mani I wanted to try. Here's what inspired me: Triangles  I painted two coats of the CC holos on a plastic bag and set them aside to dry. I only waited an hour because holos dry quickly. The hardest part was picking the polish off the plastic and cutting tiny triangles. Mine weren't small enough so I had to over lap. I only needed one coat of the base, then a layer of topcoat (Deborah Lippmann Hard Rock) then quickly placed a few pieces on each nail- doing them one at a time. I figured a slow dry topcoat was the trick to have time to set the pieces.. One layer of topcoat over everything to smooth, although I will try Seche Vite next time as these are still a little bumpy- I expect the SV will melt the pieces a bit, might be another cool effect!
Sorry for oily fingers and bad cleanup- it was midnight before I finished.

Earth Day Mani- Recycled!

Butter London British Racing Green was my first high-end polish and I still love it- it's in my top three green faves. The brush is perfect for my curved nails, rarely do I need to gyrate to get the edges. Gorgeous dark green with a blue tinged shimmer. Smooth and even.  I did a quick 2 coat mani Monday evening, but as is the case with very dark polishes (even using Poshe topcoat) I had a bit of tipwear by Tuesday evening, so I sponged on an untried, Goh Holographic Hero. It's quite dense and I wasn't happy with the effect, so a few dots of BRG and voila! This should last another day or two-

My Happy Mani Color-

Illamasqua Radium is green. Electric, grass green. Temptalia describes it: chartreuse green with yellow undertones and iridescent green and chartreuse micro-shimmer. Gorgeous application, two coats, the shimmer adds that extra oooomph to my favorite nail color for spring. Accent is Utopias Hibiscus, the perfect blend of matte red, orange white green and tiny holographic assorted glitters. I've worn similar combinations before and am sure I will again.
Poshe topcoat.
