Nails this week...
Thursday, February 23rd, 2012 10:54 amI dislike these nails. I honestly do. I was so excited to try essie's Shine of the Times, but it totally killed my base color. T_T I love the base color too since it is my own creation, but you can't see any of the awesome multi-colored glitter and the orange flakies change the shade of blue. It was a total BOO when I put it on...but they're staying on this entire week because I'm too lazy to change it...and I was too lazy to use my digi cam (not worth it) so crappy phone images will have to do.

Colors Used:
Anyone else excited to see how the Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Polish Strips turn out? I AM. (But it's so difficult for me to think about putting them on and opening that package...)

custom mixed color
Friday, January 20th, 2012 03:26 am Here's the nail polish I've been wearing the past two days. I mixed it myself! I love that it has both silver glitter and holo glitters. Originally the color I mixed leaned more towards a dark purple, but after adding in a touch of dark blue shimmer, it turned into a navy-esque color. In certain lights it looks black, but in the sunlight it's a gorgeous dark blue.
I mixed another color using a maroon/magenta shimmer as the base. Since that color was gorgeous on its own, I didn't try to change the pigment too much, but I did add some candy apple red shimmer to it. I also poured in some holographic glitter and a pink-based flaky iridescent glitter to add interest. If I paint my nails that color, I'll post pictures. ^^
