My startling fact is that in the last 3 months I have bought, for myself, a total of 6 nail polishes.What in the world you may ask. Well I've been doing work for polishes and I've gotten a few surprise polishes but it just hasn't been in the cards for me to do a haul.
BUT when I saw releases for the new Fingerpaints Fall line I about died over the purple, but immediately quelled it figuring I'd never get to a display in time to obtain a bottle so I must not get attached. Then I ran out of acetone. So I had to go to Sallys. There.was.one.bottle.left. It was meant to be!! But you've all seen swatches, and you know I just can't leave a manicure alone ;)
Yes it is that foil-sparkley in real life. I didn't play with my camera to get that. It's direct sunlight, no flash, no editing (except to resize). Unlike other purples of this hue it is NOT a frosty, streaky finish but a smooth as butter deep jelly packed with foils, some of them with blue flashes!
I did a quick stamp over the top using Sally Hansen Pacific Blue and Lacey Lilac and brought the whole thing to life with Color Club topcoat (which is shockingly fast drying, shiny, and doesn't drag my art).
I know several other Fall lines are hitting or have hit the shelves. What shade do you NEED?
Wowowowowow! Stunning stamp job. I love the polish combo.
ReplyDeleteGreat job.

Thanks so much! I wasn't so sure when I stamped it at first, but I took a deep breath and put on top coat and my word I was floored. Got a TON of attention too.
DeleteI agree with Lisa, this stamp job is great! Well as of now, I need this polish!!
ReplyDeleteYou need it yesterday...well according to the time stamp on your comment the day before that. At any rate it is THE fall purple to own!
DeleteGorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeousss!! Your stamp job is great, and the colors you chose look simply amazing together (as if I should expect anything less from you... lol.)
ReplyDeleteThank you so very much. I do aim to please and it's so good to know that it's what people come here expecting to see. You are so awesome you know that? Very inspiring too ;)
DeleteVery pretty! Now *I* need that purple ;)
ReplyDeleteDon't let it become a regret! Get it while you can!
DeleteOh that's so pretty! I need to try a mani like that! :)
ReplyDeleteI've been dying over a lot of shades for the safari collection by China Glaze, but I bought 5 of them already hehe :)
Oh so you did manage to get some of them! That's super exciting!
