On with the sparkle and glitter and everything important in life! It's so weird how I'm really into nail polish lately. Like, I've always loved it, but not in a way that I make special trips to Target, CVS, Ulta, or the Chanel counter at Nordstrom just to stock up on polishes and see what's new or hot. :(
Oh well! I'm not complaining, my mom's not complaining, so neither should you! I could be spending my money on crack but I'm spending it on something more meaningful instead. <3
Anyway, with this look I kinda wanted to imitate a really good Christmas ornament like the one shown here:
And since I didn't have extra beads laying around I figured, I will mix the shit up that I have already and make something beautiful! Woot. Woot!
I decided to use this really pretty French color by Rimmel because the top coat I used didn't have a lot of pigment, just a lot of pearl finish hence I needed a base color. :) All I needed was 3 coats of the Rimmel to achieve that white color! You can see on the final pic that you can't really even see the pearly color, but in person it's a really pretty detail! And just because the person whose hand you're shaking can't see the pearl doesn't mean that it's not there! And if you're shaking their hand, they are OBVIOUSLY not hugging/kissing on the cheek material therefore they aren't important.
So there.
