NOTDs Posts
While I work on cranking out some awesome new polishes from brands like NCLA and Jesse's Girl Cosmetics, I wanted to share some of the recent "Nails of the Day" posts that I've been wearing to work.
7 March: I wish I remembered what these color were. I know that the white was a China Glaze older color and the pink was an OPI color. I really don't care for French manicures but I was on my way to a job interview and needed something quick and classic. It was cured with Seche Ultra V - UV Activated Top Coat and an older CND UV lamp. I had this done by my manicurist locally who shapes my nails & cleans up my cuticles.
12 March: I don't remember what hot pink I used here as a base (this is why I write things down normally!) but the glitter tips was from Mattése Elite Mon Amour. You'll see a review of that later - promise!
18 March: Here is butterLONDON Knackered which I had a hard time buying when I saw it on blogs. No one seemed to show it in the best light - and honestly I don't feel like I am either. I layered this over one coat of Sephora black (the general small bottles that they sell - I got mine for $1). I really do love all that's going on here - the multichromed purple and green, the microglitter that almost seems holographic. Love.
19 March: From the Capitol Colours collection, China Glaze Fast Track was a great office nude with just a hint of shimmer from the microglitter particles. You'll see a full review on this later.
20 March: I bought a gram of SpectraFlair pigment from PaisleyPolish1 on Etsy. Unfortunately, I apparently bought her last gram because the shop is currently closed. I put about 4 small spoonfuls (using a nail stick) into a half bottle of Seche Vite, added some thinner (because my Seche was getting thick) and some BB ballz to be able to shake the mix up. I'll have more of a post later but this is 1 coat of the SpectraFlair top coat over China Glaze Sea Spray.
23 March: I'm really happy and excited about this manicure. I used a base coat of Sephora black and then 2 coats of Shades of the Season "white" - a color that I picked up from cvs/Pharmacy over the winter break. It was in a big tube of polishes and as you can see, the glitter shows up either as green or blue depending on the light.
26 March: I can't believe I've never done a post on Cult Nails Iconic! I've had it forever but just hadn't put it on. The flakes get a bit lost in the red base, but it was still a great manicure.
29 March: Finally I have the new JulieG Gelato in Venice, the new line of nail polish from Jesse's Girl Cosmetics. This is a mint green creme that reminds me a lot of mint chocolate chip (minus the chocolate chips!). Oddly enough I only had gelato once in Venice but it wasn't mint - I think it was strawberry.
1 April: While opening the dryer to get my sheets out, I did this. Granted this is my right hand but my nails have been getting in the way of my typing and other daily activities so super nubbins I go.
I haven't decided what color to put on my super nubbins but I'm almost thinking of neon. Neon and nubbins work for me. :]
Hope you've enjoyed my NOTD! If you follow me on Instagram (PolishGalore), you've seen all these already, and sometimes I post them on Twitter as well! :]
