I LOVE this holo!

Chiralty Kale looks like it's going to join that very tiny group of polishes I must get back ups for. The dense mossy green with a touch of teal complicated by holo shimmeriness is just gorgeous.  Poshe does not dull the holo. All pics under the Ott light.

Trying to bring a little sunshine inside

It's been raining....and raining and raining. Around 10 inches in the last few days (yeah, be quiet, UK-ers, this is supposed to be FLORIDA!) So three coats of Zoya Arizona accented with my #1 favorite glitter Utopia Hibiscus and I am feeling the heat! HK Girl over. (Gelous on glitter first) ALl pictures under Ott light.

Yeah macro on new phone!

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-

Paula Paints it Forward!
