Candy Stripes

I know everyone is in full swing
with the holidays and their Christmas mani's 
but I just couldn't help but squeeze this last
gem in before I go all ho - ho - holiday!


CANDY STRIPES!

 
 
I'm such a sucker for pretty girlie shades, 
and I've been a huge light pink kick in particular. 

So I started with a light pink base color,
China Glaze in Dance Baby

Once dried, 
I cut several pieces of nail art striping tape
placing them onto the nail in a horizontal stripe pattern. 

Using the following 3 shades,
Barry M. in Mint Green
Orly in Purple Crush
Color Club in Disco Dress
and a sponge, 
I sponged the colors onto the whole nail, over the tape.
Then removed the tape, applied a top coat and vola!






 
YUMMY! 
It reminds me of
something Katy Perry would wear, and SO I'm loving it in all this
sea of Red & Green!

A Whole Lottta Awesomeness!

With the holiday season upon us,
like so many others I've been swamped with
holiday cooking, shopping etc.

So I never did anything special for my nails for
Thanksgiving :( OH, THE HORROR!

So to make up for it, I decided to knock it out of the park,
holo style! 



 

This look is acheived with 3 amazing colors and scotch tape!




I started with Layla Hologram Effect in  Ultra Violet as my base

Then Enchanted Polish in Awesomeness, which is one of 
the best purple holos ever!

And lastly  Gallery Colours in Purple Sparkle

 
If you love purple, this is a wicked combination to try!
YUM! 


It was a bit overcast outside so I wasn't able to 
capture the true vibrancy of this amazing combo, 
but here it is non the less

I'm Kinda Clairvoyant

WOW, I've been gone for ages, haven't I?

In the last few weeks, I've been recovering from surgery,
launching a new polish collection,
and getting ready to move....so to say the least,
it's been insane over here!
I do hate neglecting my blog readers though, so I will try to be 
more consistent with my posts.

And speaking of post, I've got a new one for you today!

I am one of those poor souls that was way too slow 
to be fortunate to grab the ever elusive,
Cult Nails Clairvoyant aka Unicorn Puke.
I weep silently every time I see a post or pic with this
breathtaking polish. 

And so while I am still hunting for a bottle that won't cost me
a car payment, I decided to experiment with
a few different toned flakie polishes to see if I could
capture the look of Clairvoyant.




I started with a single coat of Color Club's Disco Dress
a vibrant violet purple.
Then, a single layer of Max Factor's, Fantasy Fire.
Then I used 3 different flakie polishes,
lightly applied. 
INLGOT #205
Essie Luxe Effect in Shine Of The Times
&
Picture Polish in Festival



Here is the and result



An exact dupe? 
No, I wouldn't say that, but it does capture the same look as 
  Clairvoyant and for the moment it's satified my craving for
this amazing polish.




What do you think?
