Heads up, this one is pic heavy...
After Christmas I decided to change it up a little bit. How? Without nail stamping! Yeah, that didn't work out.
Wednesday
Sometime last year I went for my first Shellac manicure. It was great but I got bored after a week and soaked off the color (Shellac Masquerade). I did love the color though, and went on a mission to get the regular nail polish for my collection. While not all Shellac colors are available in regular nail polish, I did find Masquerade at www.head2toebeauty.com. If it's not the same color it's enough to make me happy.
Manicure
1 coat Dazzle Dry Base Coat
2 coats CND Masquerade
1 coat Sally Hansen Insta-dri Top Coat
I got so many bubbles it was ridiculous because my top coat was drying out. I have been using others so much I had to throw it out...and I had to take off this manicure.
Wednesday...a little later
I recently got Zoya Aurora and remembered seeing someone post this on the Zoya Facebook page. I knew I wanted to try it and it took me this long to commit.
Manicure
1 coat Elmer's Glue as a base coat
2 coats Zoya Aurora
Stamped with Kleancolor Black with BM 201
1coat Dazzle Dry Top Coat
This mani didn't last for me. I was trying out the Elmer's Glue again as a base coat for glitter and I got my first chip Thursday at 3 pm. I'm sorry, I can't live like that. So...
Thursday
Manicure
1 coat Dazzle Dry Base Coat
2 coats Nails Inc The Strand (magnetized on second coat)
1 coat Dazzle Dry Top Coat
I can never go wrong with the Nails Inc magnetic nail polishes. I got this one from the Black Friday Sephora sale online. I think it was $7. Love! Love! Love! And it lasted until I changed my manicure today.
This was a very colorful week filled with success and disappointment. But it was fun to change things up a lot more than I usually do.
Wishing you amazing manicures,
Bevy of Nails
