Water Marbling 2



More fun with water marbling. I used China Glaze Peachy Keen as the base, with Sally Hansen Sunrise Sunset, Sally Hansen Gleaming, and NYC French White for the marbling.

New Crackle


China Glaze "For Audrey" topped with China Glaze "Cracked Concrete". I was very happy to find a full display of China Glaze Crackle polishes at my nearest Sallys this week. I also purchased "Broken Hearted" and "Black Mesh".

Beauty and the Beach


Another polish from my recent purchase from victoriasnailsupply.com, China Glaze Beauty and the Beach. I used to wear all pink nail polish all the time so I am shocked by how much I love this blue. It is a pretty aquamarine shimmer, that needs three coats to be opaque. In the second photo I used China Glaze Matte Magic as a topcoat on my index finger. I really like both the shiny and matte finishes.

Re-Fresh Mint


The nail polish I am wearing now, China Glaze "Re-Fresh Mint". The color is a pretty pastel mint green. The formula is both runny and thick at the same time making it hard to apply without getting it all over your cuticles.

New Polishes


My newest nail polishes ordered from victoriasnailsupply.com. The price ranged from $2.75-$3.10 per bottle. I would recommend victorias, I just wish shipping was cheaper.

Lightning Bolt


This is my one and only China Glaze Crackle nail polish in "Lightning Bolt". Here it is layered over Sally Hansen HD polish "Digital". I will definitely be on the lookout for the other five colors in the collection.

Reggae to Riches


China Glaze "Reggae to Riches". This is a really pretty blue base magenta/purple iridescent color. Lasting power for China Glaze polishes is amazing. This is two coats :)

Not So Blueberry


Recently added to my collection, Revlon's "Not So Blueberry". Found this re-released scented Revlon at Walmart for $3.75. It smells amazing, just like Kool-Aid!

Light My Tiki


This is one of my favorites. "Light My Tiki" by China Glaze is a pinky-coral shimmer that dries to a glossy, pearly finish. This was only one coat.
