BUT I realized that IF the power were to go out, I would NOT want to have to paint my nails by candlelight...that's not cool. And I had taken off my manicure to help my bf paint, so I had to paint my nails quick. I am in love with jelly sandwiches so I had to do another one...and with all this hurricane talk, I wanted something in a sky blue/aqua-ish color.
Not having any jellies in the color I had in mind, I had to use Essie Turquoise & Caicos. I used two different glitters, and I love how it turned out. I put on my base coat then did a layer of T&C, then a layer of OPI Crown Me Already!, then a coat of T&C, then a coat of Sally Hansen Extreme Wear Twinkle, Twinkle, then a final coat of T&C, and topped it off with Poshe. I like how it turned out, it kinda looks like a bunch of stuff trapped under water...kinda like how we're gonna be if this hurricane is as bad as News 12 makes it seem! Anyways, Enough of my rambling, here's my mani:
I really wanted to capture how nice it looks, it really looks great IRL. ALSO, did you guys notice that my nails are rounded? I broke two nails in the corners while painting with the bf, so instead of filing them down again, I just rounded them...not sure if I like it much... what do you guys think? ALSOOOO did you notice that I got my camera back?! SOOOO excited. Anyways, let me know what you guys think! Do you like the jelly sandwich thing? How's this combo? Do you hate it? Honestly, I love feedback, it helps me improve :)
Also, if anyone else is in an area getting affected by this hurricane, please stay safe! I hope everyone stays safe and that we all weather this and go back to our normal lives...get it, weather it? Haha, I'm so punny. Okay, I'll shut up now. Enjoy your day! Stay safe :) Thanks for reading! :D
OMG! Good luck girl and stay safe! I can't imagine the situation like this in our country! Very pretty polish! Amazing color! I love the glitters, cuteee:)
ReplyDeleteDang I really love that! I hope everything goes well with the hurricane. I am glad that you are so prepared!
ReplyDeleteThanks girlies! :)
ReplyDeleteI love this mani, I got a hold of Crown me already recently so I can't wait to try it! Good luck with the hurricane and be safe! I used to live in a hurricane prone area and I do NOT miss getting prepared every hurricane season.
ReplyDeleteYour nails look gorgeous! I hope everyone stays safe! Hurricanes stink--I know!
ReplyDelete@ Leanne- Thank you! :) It's a VERY dense glitter, btw. I love it :) And I know, preparation was a pain but better safe than sorry! And I don't live in a hurricane prone area so it was all new to me. All is good now though, the sun's even out :)
ReplyDelete@ Eat.Sleep.Polish- Thank you! :) And yes, they do stink! I hope I don't have to go through this again ):
That looks really cool, like a 1950s kitchen counter!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Madeline! I actually googled it, didn't find much but I'll take your word for it! :)
