Coated Chocolate

A while ago, I bought L.A. Colors Mega Watt which I wanted to use for French mani's or for nude looking nails (rather than wearing nothing at all). I was curious how this color would look, so I began: swatch 1...lovely peachy pink shimmer...swatch 2...lovely peachy pink shimmer...swatch 3...swatch 4!!! Normally I would have stopped after 3, which is my max. But after 3 coats, it was still very sheer and it seems the color looked exactly like the first coat. That is why I put this one in the category of 'layer-polish'.

Since autumn is almost around the corner, I picked a brown polish to swatch: Barry M's Chocolate. It is really like you are swatching your nails with melted chocolate.

 Then I layered one coat of Mega Watt over Chocolate:

Finding a nice layering effect is like discovering a new polish color, don't you think?

Have a wonderful day!!!



Sassy Sparkle

This is how it was before I layered 'Sassy Sparkle' from L.A. Colors over my Dolly Wink polish:

If you are wondering where my index finger went on the 'after-picture', well...I ruined it during the photo-shoot *sigh*

Have a wonderful day!!!

Multi-French-Mani

As promised, I would swatch the Dolly Wink (DW) nail polish collection. Well, at least a little part of it.

Today's mani is inspired by the Vivid Dolly look from the Dolly Wink website:

Only 2 colors are featured in this mani from the DW collection: no. 3 (Salmon) and no. 8 (Blue).

From index to pinkie:
DW no. 8 ~ L.A. Colors 'Fun In The Sun' ~ DW no. 3 ~ Models Own 'Lemon Meringue'

The bottle in the picture is: Catrice 'Back To Black'. This is also the color that I used to do the black french.

What you do think of the multi-french-mani? What colors would you pick to create this look?

Have a wonderful day!
