enchanted polish - igor

so i started out doing a manicure with this using china glaze's new 'cast a spell' from their wicked collection.  my seche vite must have been too thick because it never dried all the way and i messed up the manicure when i took a shower. 

it was pretty, but you couldn't see all of the tiny black glitter going on with igor that you can see with this combo.  i didn't get any white glitter out of the bottle, but that's fine.  i guess i need to flip the bottle an let it sit before i use this one again to let the white hexes sink to where i can grab them.

when i got home from work i decided to go ahead and re-do it.  i used butter london trustafarian as my base.  this is a slightly holo sage green color.  it's beautiful on its own.

igor...i love this.  then again, what enchanted polish don't i love?  it's another from the falloween collection.

i used 2 coats of trustafarian, 2 of igor, 1 coat of glitter food, 1 coat of gelous and 1 coat of seche vite...after i refilled my bottle >.<

this turned out glass-smooth.  love it.

i had to cut my nails way down.  after the one cracked a few weeks ago they've felt weird being slightly different lengths.  the ends were getting thin anyhow, so it was time for a trim.








all that glitters - horror business

here's another all that glitters polish from the boo-tique halloween collection.

this is 3 coats on its own.  no base color, but next time i grab this one i'm going to go with a bright green. and probably go with 2 coats of polish.

the consistency was a bit thick, but nothing that was unmanageable.  it's PACKED with glitter.  i love it.
