Nubar: Indigo Illusion + RA117

Nubar Indigo Illusion has been on my list for a while and I was glad to cross it off! I used two coats of this duochrome. It is like a green smokey teal and flashes pink/purple/green. I stamped it using Red Angel 117 because I loved the faces! I put a fimo bow on the girl and a fimo crown on the one next to her. It's like they are on a date! =^.^=   I wore this for about 3 days before I started picking off the fimos.  I wish I could leave them on longer but 3D art starts to bother me after a while getting caught when I do my hair and stuff. I like this mani though and would for sure stamp the faces again :)

New Years Mani

This was my New Years mani and it was a pain to photograph. I started with a base color of OPI Fly (showed you that mani yesterday), and added Kleancolors Chrome Holo on top. Chrome Holo is a suspension base with holo glitter and it's tinted purple. The holo on this was awesome because it twinkled in the light... I blurred some pictures for you to see. I stamped a heart within a heart using Red Angel plate 110 and Sally Hansen Celeb City (love this polish for stamping and marbling). I was not really happy with it because I thought that a New Year mani should be blingy and eye catching so I took little silver beads and put them between the hearts. It looked cool in person and the beads stayed on for 3 days before I had two casualties  (not too shabby). If I did this mani again, I would use Fairy Dust instead of the Chrome Holo or use a dark purple under it or no top coat at all,  so the stamp shows more. Was fun to look at while it lasted. 

Oh hey, this is my 400th post :-) kinda cool! 

Nubar: Jewel and 3D flower

Oh how I love Nubars! This was a mani I wore for Thanksgiving.  Nubar Jewel is a cappuccino medium brown with holographic glitter.  It was opaque in two coats which rocked.  I added a 3D acrylic flower to my accent fingers. It was a solid blue so I added China Glaze Fairy Dust over it to add more sparkle to it and also used a silver foil polish to define the center of the flower.  It's a great easy mani the only thing that bugged me was removal. Since it's a micro glitter polish it was painful to remove, not as bad as a glitter bomb but more effort than a holo polish.  Totally worth it though because it's a gorgeous color.

Orchid: Steel Guitar and Fairy Dust

I'm loving this simple mani. I have Orchid Steel Guitar for you today. It's a steel gray with a hint of white/pearl shimmer. I got this from Mandy who blogs over at Muddin Make Up Mayham (she's so sweet and sassy, gotta love that girl!). I used two coats for opacity and topped it with China Glaze Fairy Dust. On my ring finger I did not use Fairy Dust and instead put a 3D acrylic skull and crossbones. I have a ton of really cute 3D pieces from Tricia (check out her nail art facebook), who does some amazing nail art! It's a simple mani but I really love it. It shimmers and sparkles :-)
