Cherry blossom nail art

The colours I used:
- Nude base - Ruby Kisses Cream White
- Pinks - Nubar Pink Crème & Revlon Grapefruit Fizz
- Turquoises - Model's Own Top Turquoise & Barry M Aqua Blue
- The branches were painted with Nubar black striper & Nubar Swiss Chocolate
- Topped with Orly Love Each Other

Original idea shamelessly stolen from HERE. :P The bottom picture is the most colour accurate of the bunch.

Miyo Tropicana & China Glaze Cracked Concrete

Miyo - Tropicana, 2 coats

I don't know much about this brand, but I'm pretty sure that Tropicana might be a perfect dupe for Essie She's Picture Perfect. Both are periwinkle with hidden pink shimmer, but only Tropicana is scented!

Naturally, I had to layer something over Tropicana...

...And here's my right hand with another crackle polish.

Wild and Crazy Sheri & Barry M Instant Nail Effects Pink Fizz

Wild and Crazy - Sheri, 2 coats

I know it might not look like much, but I absolutely adore this polish. Sheri is the perfect blend of pink and purple with super fine gold shimmer. It was pretty thick (not gloopy though) so I added a little bit of thinner to make it better suit my formula preferences, but without thinning it would be a one-coater. Wild and Crazy = Sinful Colors, thus Sheri has an identical twin somewhere in their line.

I luvz the crack, gotta have the crack... The Barry M Instant Nail Effects are very nice in all aspects - the formula is grand, the brush is stiff enough and they crackle in an even fashion on the nail. Me gusta!
