Pink Layering

Today I have some layering for you...I put on three coats of Maybelline Colorama in Rush Blush on last night (thank you, Ange!) and decided it needed something else, so I added one coat of Sinful Colors Pinky Glitter and one coat of China Glaze Golden Enchantment. (Pinky Glitter is basically the pink-based version of Hottie and Nail Junkie.) I took one picture (mostly) in focus and one out of focus, so that you could see the iridescent/holo glitter.

Rush Blush really is a blush sort of color...in fact, I think I may have an old thing of blush that's close to this. It's not quite opaque in three coats, though it appears to be in all but the most finicky of lighting situations. I didn't wear this long because I had some other things (*ahem* Fashionista Nails in Fortune) planned and because I wasn't really in the mood for a pink, but I'll probably pull this combination out again at some point.

Also, my apologies, but I probably won't have any outdoor pictures for a while because the weather here is going to be entirely rainy and cloudy and generally nasty for the next week or so. While Monday is supposed to be "mostly sunny" according to NOAA, I'd bet ten bucks that the sunny part is going to be while I'm at school. I do love this kind of weather, but it's inconvenient for nail blogging.

P.S. 40% chance of a wintry mix tonight? In March? In southern Missouri? Crazy.

P.P.S. 249 followers...wanna be my 250th?

  2. Thank you! We did have nice weather for a few days, and then it was too hot
    (for me), and now it's going to freeze tonight. I'm hoping for a proper
    spring for both of us soon!

  3. Such a cute combination! The base colour is sort of grown-up looking, but the glitter on top gives it a bunch of extra personality. Love it!
    And I definitely feel your pain on the weather. I always see gorgeous sunshine outside classroom windows and then by the time I get home it's all cloudy and gross again. :(

  4. Thank you! And I'm glad to know I'm not the only one for whom the sun only
    shines when I'm at school.

  6. The sun is actually out right now; I can hardly believe it! Too bad I've got my second set of Fashionista Nails on now and can't do any swatching...
