NOTD: Barielle Mint Ice Cream Cone and Nail Art

For this manicure I used a base of Seche Clear, and 2 coats Barielle Mint Ice Cream Cone, then a wide stripe of Sally Hansen X-treme Wear Sun Kissed and a thinner stripe of Essie Little Brown Dress, then once it was dry I masked off all but a thin strip of brown and stamped using BM 214 And GOSH Metallic green.  Topcoat: Seche Vite.

I aimed so that one stripe of the full nail design transferred onto the brown.  Definitely more successful on my left hand.  My right looks smudgy! 

My camera doesn't do yellow tones well, so this is not an accurate representation of Barielle MICC.  These look a bit washed out, to be honest.
 

Thanks for checking out my blog!  Happy painting!

My First Franken Polish

It's totally dubbed Hospital Green. :p


Bear with me the photo is terrible of these polishes, but I will list them in order from most used to least(left to right): Rimmel Lycra Nail Tip Whitener (was getting really thick and gooey), CG Nailslicks Jolted Jade, Sally Hansen Hard as Nails w/Nylon Silver Bells, Sally Hansen Chrome Sizzlin' Gold, Sally Hansen X-Treme Wear Green With Envy, Nicol by OPI One Voice, Ardene Fluorescent Yellow, Wet N' Wild 415A (this didn't have a colour name).


And this is my new BundleMonster mani. I used BM plate #11 with Konad Special Polish Black Pearl. I took some of my CG Boundless Color Sparkle Topcoat Disco Dazzle and dabbed some out onto a palette, picking out the larger holo-sparkles with a toothpick and placing them up the center. Topcoat and Voila!


This is a shot I took indoors last night under the yellow light:

Cheers n Beers!
