Nail Design 5/6/12

Ya purple gradient design!  I was inspired by a magazine shoot on hip nail designs, and couldn't resist the oh-to-awesome idea.  I painted my toes the same color as the thumb.  Here are a list of the colors from pinki-finger to thumb:
 
China Glaze, Up All Night
Avon Matte, Violetta
OPI, (mini purple from Pirates of the Caribbean collection)
NARS, Pokerface
Essie, To Buy or Not to Buy

Nail Combo for May 1st

Hi there!

Nail Polish Project

This week...
Essie A Crewed Interest
NARS Orgasm


I started a project where I removed all of the nail polish I have yet to wear from my nail rack, and I don't put it back on the rack until I have worn it at least once.  This is actually creating quite a fun project!  I am trying colors I don't normally wear (but obviously felt I needed when I purchased) and so far I am pleasantly surprised.

I did one coat of the Essie A Crewed Interest, then two layers of NARS Orgasm on my hands, then 3 layers of Essie on my toes (not pictured as the toes already have socks on :).  The combo worked really well.  Having the opaque light peachy-pink color of the A Crewed Interest underneath the Orgasm really made the color of the Orgasm pop.  The Orgasm has beautiful gold sparkles as well, so there is a lot of dimension to the look.  I think it is something that will work great for summer.

Happy painting!
