Memorial Day Nails

White - OPI Alpine Snow NL L00
Blue - OPI Dating a Royal NL B70
Red, White, Blue Glitter - Icing Patriotic
Red - Rimmel ?

The day I got caught in the rain and it ruined my Peach Fuzz nails, I waited out the rest of the storm in the mall. While there, I found the Icing Patriotic glitter. I was super excited because it was a round glitter where they are all the same medium size glitters. I am not a fan of medium round glitter mixed with small or micro glitters. I don't know why. I am just picky that way. I should have tried it in the store or something though because it is a real beast to apply. It is so thick you can't get good coverage without a half inch think layer of polish. I would just really love Milani to do one cause they have the best formula for glitter.

Fuzzy Peach

Sally Hansen - Fuzzy Coat Peach Fuzz
Purple - Old Wet n Wild Megalast Through the Grapevine

Base coat of Through the Grapevine. 1 coat of Peach Fuzz. It takes a lot of effort to get the bar glitter to look ok. Tried 2 coats but it looked like a weird mass of glitter. No top coat. Not sure if the lack of top coat contributed to it or if it would have happened anyway but I got caught in the rain 2 hours after this had dried and my nails got all gummy and just wiped off. I have to believe a coat of Seche Vita would have prevented that. Will try it next time.

Inadvertant Kermit Nails

Green - Pure ICE Wild Thing
Blue -Wet n Wild MegaLast Salon Nail Color I Need a Refresh-Mint 218A
Top Coat - Seche Vita

Pure Ice base green 2 coats. Taped off single chevron using regular scotch tape. 1 coat Wet n Wild.

I've used is green over this blue before and it worked great. This was my first time using the green as the base and it did not work out like I had wanted. It bled through the blue and changed it from a robin's egg blue to a minty green color that as the night went on just got more and more green until it was full on Kermit Collar Nails. I had wanted something in my wedding colors for my anniversary. Not an ode to Kermit for a Muppet movie premier. They didn't last longer than 8 hours.
