I have no idea why some neon colors are synonymous with #halloween 🎃👻 But this is one of those examples.
You know if you see neon orange or neon green, it’s halloween! (Ok, that rhyme was not done on purpose lol) These are a couple of witches and black cats 🐱 because of reasons.
I had this amazing idea that I could stamp gel polish and use gel powder on top to make a stamped design. But…. life is cruel.
And it is not possible to stamp gel polish.
It comes off on the stamper looking like water. The design is totally lost.
So naturally, the only alternative was to actually draw the design with a
brush, cure that, apply the polish and make it work.
Basically, I painted the base black, added a matte top coat so the powder
would only stick to the parts with gel and this is what come out:
Not bad eh?

If there’s one thing that always goes well with me, is a Nude Nail Polish.
This is Sally Hansen’s In Nude-Tral 126 and it’s opaque in one coat
and the nude tone of it is gorgeous. I’ll definitely wear this more often
on my right hand.
I’ve used this polish several times before, when doing
Spotify Nails:
& Android Nails
And several others, but didn’t really have a swatch for it until now:
I don’t know about you, but I definitely had a cold labor day weekend.
And I was so glad that it was! Finally my summer rants are over!
There is something about riding a NYC Subway full of sweaty people
at 8 am in the morning and getting to work like you ran a 20K marathon
that just doesn’t appeal to me.
Also, Pumpkin Spice Latte’s are back and that’s the beginning of the
holiday season!
So, to honor the colder weather, FLANNEL NAILS!
I used the Born Pretty Store Stamping Plate BP-L006, and Twinkled T’s amazing
white stamping polish that works charms I tell ya!
Sally Hansen has come out with a bunch of Crayola inspired nail polishes
and I’ve been trying them out. This is a gorgeous deep blue that is fully
opaque in one coat, but I used two coats just to make sure!
And this is the same color with Cirque Colors We Trippy Holo Top Coat.
It dims down the opacity of the blue, but it’s still a nice contrast.
I dig it.
