Going Dotty....

Happy New Year!
In the midst of the coldest weather we've had in 25 years, I wanted a mani to brighten me up. I did skittles using the jelly holos Jade Holografico New Collection, three tropical holos named Sunset, Oasis and Mirage. Two coats leaves some VNL, but I'm happy with it. Super easy application.Topcoat is Lippmann Gel Lab.

A Very Merry Christmas Eve
I will be traveling A LOT tomorrow and decided that a pretty Christmas nail art mani with trees, snowflakes or any other such decoration would not hold up very well under all the luggage hauling and layovers I have to endure. With that in mind, I turned to an untried, Crow's Toes Black Widow, a blue-leaning black holo with glitter and red sparks. It took three coats to get it smooth, I blame the glitter, and two layers of topcoat, but now I feel as though my nails have armor on them! Office friendly, as they are pretty much black inside, but as you can see, flash and Ott light make them come alive with rainbows and flashes. I don't notice any color shift as some have reported, but I am thrilled with the results. And yes, half my quart bag is remover and polish :P

Christmas in Florida
So we are celebrating our family Christmas together early this year due to schedule conflicts, and I was trying to decide on a mani last night. When I realized it is predicted to be 82 degrees Saturday, I went with a hot summer mani, and it makes me SO happy! Maria at Cult Nails is having a warehouse clearance and I picked up a couple colors I had been drooling over, Ay Poppy! (persimmon crelly) and You're My Dandy Lion, a sunshine yellow cream with a bit of golden shimmer. The shimmer isn't as noticeable on the nail but that suits me fine. It does add a depth to this glorious yellow. It took three coats for opacity, and Ay Poppy! was perfect in two. Merry Christmas, Florida, now go home, you're drunk. HK Girl topcoat over.
