Marilyn / Minnie Mouse POST

Sorry been gone AGAIN... 

1. I had to stop using gel on my nails... I was using it to keep my natural nails from breaking & it was doing a great job for a LONG time.... but, not too long ago my fingers started burning & itching... So I started to investigate the culprit.  I was thinking it was either the 90% Rubbing Alcohol OR the UV Light... My conclusion is the light because I don't apply the alcohol past my nails.

I haven't been gelling for at least a month & because of that my nails Broke, Chipped.. etc.

I started to realize that I can't keep leaving just because of my nails....So don't be surprised if you see mis-shaped nail sizes... LOL

2. I have a friend in deep need of my help... she lost her job & then her house. It took hard work & lots of time to get her situated but, she is still a work in progress.


Anywhoo... to get back on track...

This look I did I like to call the Marilyn / Minnie look because that's what it reminds me of.

I started out with 2 coats of Sunset Kiss by Julie which is a gorgeous metallic red & then moved on to 2 coats of  Love Marilyn by China Glaze which is a red & silver glitter and topped it off with 1 coat of Out The Door top coat.

Lemme know what it reminds you of!

Freeze by Sally Hansen

This is a frosty metallic blue color by Sally Hansen called "Freeze". It was easily applied in 2 coats. I then decided to make it interesting by adding "Liquid Crystal" by China Glaze onto the ring fingers. I then topped them off with Seche Vite's Fast Dry Top Coat.

Color Club's Berry and Bright

This is a nice metallic Christmas red color called "Berry And Bright" by Color Club from the 2012 Winter Affair Collection. It was applied it ONE easy coat! Crazy I know.... While I was painting my nails I noticed a smell... which was quite nice but, I was wondering where it was coming from. I realized that it was coming from my nails as they dried. It smelt like berries! :o) Funny cause I had no idea when I bought the polish that it did that.

Lesbi-Honest by Man Glaze

This polish is made by "Man Glaze" & is an awesome matte pink  called "Lesbi-Honest" and when you gloss over you get to see it's shimmer! Some may prefer the gloss look over the matte but, in this case I say matte all the way! No matter which you decide, it is a fascinating color. 
I'd like to say this was a one coater BUT, either way I always apply two at minimum. Please, let me know what you think in the comments below. I'd love to hear what you think.
