Zoya Designer- Fall 2012

I sold off all my Zoya a couple years ago- only kept this smoky dark cream collection that was a birthday gift from my international birthday group- of which 90% of the dozen girls are still corresponding with each other! Good times, good chat, sweet ladies. I always forget some of these need two coats, they may get some art later.

excuse the patch on my ring finger- trying to grow out a tear

I'm missing the red, Rehka, probably sold/gave it away because I never wear red....

The Best Intentions

What I meant to do:

What I actually did:

Two coats of each, Poshe over, shrank a bit- need to use a different TC over Butter London. LOVE these both so much, the nearly-mustard East End goes on a bit crelly and dries matte but no streaking like many lighter creams. And the golden shimmer in Brick Lane is glorious! Will be wearing these a lot this fall!

random....love me some Aussie polishes!

oh fave pumpkin orange- FP Cordur-Orange

Dark taupe for a challenge

wow it's been three weeks.....

it's been a terribly long hot hard summer. Nail mojo gone, still painting (until the day I die, ha!) but art and fun stuff don't seem worth the effort. Hope it comes back....

Peacock Parade- two coats

Lippmann 80's Rewinds collection- most took three coats

Some recent manis

Enchanted Polish Desert Sunset

Lovely holo with peach, salmon, pink, not sure exactly how to describe, but holo Office Safe:-D. Easy coverage with two coats.

Mentality Crystal Chromes

One heavy coat over black for each...mind: blown Go get 'em here

This kept me busy, painted a few nails too

My grandbabies were in town for...

Paula's Wedding Shower!

We're throwing a couples's shower for the happy twosome tomorrow so I'm sporting her wedding colors, meadow green and peach, using Illamasqua Purity and MILF. Some combo, eh? Two coats of the green, three for the peach. Seche Vite over.

Negative space!

First try at this, using OPI Uh Oh Roll Down the Window, olive green two coater. Topped with SV.

Vapid Lacquer The Elements of Neon Collection

There are and will be more tremendous swatches like this of these opaque linear neon beauties. I chose to layer one coat of the pure Spectraflair topcoat, Cryogenic Refrigerant over the colors. Pictures can speak for themselves.

you can find them here on June 20!
