Hi there! Today I have a matte layering experiment because I thought I lost my matte top coat, but it turned out it was just in my drawer with the other polishes and I didn't see it.. ahh that was strange.
I started with Hard Candy Lava and it is a 1 coater, but I like to do 2. Then I put Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure, which is a yellow-green duochrome flakey top coat. And finally, on top of it all is a coat of Orly Matte Top. I like the way it turned out!
Lava by itself
Finished mani
How do you guys like this?
Have a great week!

Deborah Lippmann Sugar Daddy
Hello readers! How are you all? I am sooooooo close to 100 of you... just ONE more!! I'll do a giveaway when I get there:) Well on to today's nails. I have 2 coats of Deborah Lippmann's Sugar Daddy. It's so amazing! Looking at the bottle, you would think it's only slightly color-shifting but actually it's crazy how much it changes. Even the slightest angle makes the whole nail gold. Absolutely gorgeous, I would definitely recommend this to anyone, if they're on sale again of course. On top of that, I have a few decorative rhinestones just for a little something but I didn't want to distract from the polish.
The weird thing about this one is though that my topcoat peeled off after maybe 2 days. It barely even chipped though as I wore it.
My camera didn't seem to think this polish was pink though.. odd.
Anyways, I hope you all have a wonderful week!

I'm back with gradient nails!
Hello all! I'm back, I had a wonderful time in Maryland:) It's good to post again. I have a bunch of pictures for you all! First, I swatched Essie Main Squeeze. I don't get the name, that bothers me.
I didn't like it when I bought it, but now I fell in love! It seems kind of ghosty to me.
Then yesterday I did a gradient because I didn't know what to do with the color I had on (Love & Beauty Blue/green that I've shown bottle pics of). I sponged Claire's Twinkle Twinkle about halfway down then on top of that OPI Lincoln Park After Dark.
The one above is the closest to the true color. My camera wanted to make it blue, and not catch the pretty purple duochrome glitters...
Well bye for now!
PS. I got Revlon Whimsical!;)

Grey's Anatomy or... Holy mother of multichromes!
I am so happy about how this turned out. Grey's Anatomy by Wet n Wild is a really freaking cool multichrome that is a purple-grey in most lighting, then turn it and it's green! Like magic:) Multichromes really are my favorite kind of polish. I used either 3 or 4 coats of it, I can't remember. Then I stamped plate BM-203 with China Glaze Platinum Silver. It made just the perfect subtle stamp:) I am super satisfied with this, especially after a few not so good manis.
Picture time!! *Warning, many, many pictures ahead*
Have a nice weekend!
