Are you dizzy with excitement about nail polish?

 These are only bad news nails because I quite literally received some very bad news while I had them painted this way!
 Bad news aside, because we like to keep ze blog fluffy and pretty and full of glitter, sunshine, shimmer, and win.  :)  This is three coats of Nicole by OPI Yellow, It's Me topped with Candeo Sprouse.
 I used mainly painting motions with Sprouse, but did dab a little, as needed.
 A coat of Gelous under my top coat smoothed things nicely.
 I love this combo.  It's fun and a little funky.  I wish more blue bits had come out to play, and I almost don't like the silver glitters, but all in all I love the look.
The coppery pink shimmer in Yellow, It's Me is totally fab.  You can see it extra in the picture above because I must have snapped it just as the sun was going behind a cloud.  Hmm...  I guess the sun wouldn't really go behind a cloud.  The cloud would go in front of it.  Yeah.

This wore for a solid week on me!

 I have to give myself credit here - this combo is really fun!
 I started with three slightly streaky coats of Essence Mellow Yellow.
 Then I added a careful coat of Candeo Zef.  I followed with a coat of OPI DS top coat and Butter London top coat.
 Zef is really thick, so I was worried about how it would apply.  I have to say, it actually did great!  The glitters nicely dispersed themselves for the most part and I really like how it turned out.  I used careful painting motions along with occasional dabbing.
 My friend at work pointed out that this color combination reminds her of the t.v. show Saved by the Bell.  So true!!
 I haven't done any actual nail art in a long time, but this type of look makes me feel like a cheater.  It's easy, awesome, cheater, lazy person nail art!
I think Zef will look fun over lots of colors:  light blue, lime green, lavender, soft gray.  What do you think?  I'm curious to see what combinations others come up with who have this!

 I only snapped these two quick pics of this mani from last week.  It was one coat of KleanColor Metallic Mango followed by a dabbed on coat of Candeo Divebomb.
I used a coat of Sally Hansen Nail Quencher and then Out the Door to finish.  I was reminded why I always hated Nail Quencher - bubbles!!  At least they hid a little bit because of the glitters.


This Is Me!

I love color, beauty, creativity, animals, and being care-free. I'm not care-free, in reality, but would like to think it's an attainable state of being! I do like to bend the rules when it serves a greater purpose and I'm all about being authentic. Here I am, take me or leave me! I suppose I'd call myself a sensitive soul. I think I feel things more deeply and ponder things more thoroughly than your average bear.
